The days' events started with a morning game of Jackpot Bingo for those seniors that were feeling the 'luck of the Irish'. Following Bingo, residents were treated to some Irish desserts and tea. The Northtown seniors loved dressing up in their favourite Irish themed outfits, all of which further added to the festive atmosphere of the day. Spirits were high while the festivities continued during an afternoon of Irish entertainment in the Willowdale Lounge. A wonderful guest speaker captivated the audience with tales and legends from Ireland's past, along with historical facts related to St. Patrick's Day.
Prior to their evening meal, Delmanor Northtown residents were given the opportunity to enjoy some Guinness Beer in the pub during Cocktail Hour. The traditional Irish St. Patrick's Day feast that followed certainly did not disappoint! Residents enjoyed Whiskey and Orange Marmalade Bread Pudding to complete the wonderful meal presented by Chef Divakar and his talented culinary team.
The celebrations continued even after dinner as residents were treated to live entertainment in the Willowdale lounge. It was quite a celebration for Delmanor Northtown residents. Whether of Irish decent or not, the party continued throughout the entire day! Coming from the laughter and singing that could be heard throughout the retirement community, it will definitely be a day that will not soon be forgotten.
