Celebrating Grandparents' Day at Delmanor Glen Abbey

Grandparents connect us to the values, stories, and history of our families and our communities.  What better time than on Grandparents' Day was there to share memories and family traditions, and more importantly - to create new ones by spending the day with grandparents.

The residents of Delmanor Glen Abbey were joined by their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, that came to the residence to honour and celebrate Grandparents' Day with the seniors.

The popular show Hands on Exotics returned to the retirement community to delight the guests with many exotic animals, including a baby kangaroo and numerous birds in flight.

The spectators were in awe as they were able to get up close and personal with the magnificent animals.  The fun presentation was followed by pogos, pop and popsicles; much to the delight of the children of all ages!

The event was a great success!  Some very special quality time along with special memories were made during this afternoon devoted to the blessings of family.
