The Oscars, Celebrated in Style at Delmanor Elgin Mills

The residents of Delmanor Elgin Mills hit the red carpet with a tribute to the Academy Awards, honouring the past five decades of feature film excellence.  The retirement community was transformed into an Oscar party, complete with a "paparazzi" backdrop for residents dressed in boas, hats, and with miniature academy awards, to pose for a picture on the red carpet.

  
The residence was alive with music taken from some of the greatest scores of popular movies over the past 50 years.  The seniors sang along to familiar tunes and learned about some of the stories behind their favourite movie ballads.

Historic photographs from the long history of the Academy Awards were placed throughout the room as residents were encouraged to guess which celebrity was showcased.  The winner was awarded a genuine movie clapboard as a wonderful keepsake of this fun event.
