That's a wrap on Seniors' week!

From our City Hall Kick-Off to the many incredible events held across the city, we had a fantastic time celebrating the seniors in our community!

Huge thank you to everyone who participated. We hope you enjoyed it just as much as we did!

“There’s so much locked in us that we haven’t explored.”

What a wonderful quote from Donna Coombs-Montrose to help kick-off Seniors Week!
