Dance For Seniors 2014
2013 Contest Winner
Congratulations to Monika Sackett of Crossfield!
As written in Airdrie’s very own Here’s The Scoop newspaper: Somebody is going to be having afternoon tea for a bit! To enter the draw for the “Tea For Two” basket from A Friend Indeed, the entrants had to submit a short story about a senior who is significant in their life. Monkia wrote: “I am so lucky to work at the Rocky View Lodge, not only do I have one special senior in my life, I have a whole lodge full. The seniors at the lodge brighten my work day with their kind words, encouragement and always an abundance of hugs. The residents at the Rocky View Lodge have taught me many life lessons through their display of bravery, courage and kindness. It would be too hard to choose just one of the many beautiful people at the Rocky View Lodge.”

2011 Spring Fashion Show
In March 2011, A Friend Indeed teamed up with Luxstone Manor in Airdrie and hosted a fashion show. It was well attended with 77 people in the audience. The models were local senior ladies who live in Airdrie. They were modeling beautiful clothes from Calgary’s own Designer Fashions. It was a great time with laughs, tea, goodies, draws and the lovely violin music of 10 year old Katarina. Everyone was encouraged to bring an item for the Airdrie Food bank upon arrival. We hope to make this an annual event to chase away winter and encourage spring to make its appearance a little sooner!
