Seniors Out & About

Contributed by Jan Hunter

ON Monday 10th July, members of Glasshouse Country Senior Citizens Club celebrated the festive season early at Christmas in July at the Caloundra RSL Club. A two-course Christmas-themed main course and dessert was served, and Laura Doolan provided entertainment with a variety of Christmas and well known songs. There was also a raffle supporting Dementia Carers Caloundra. A very fun day was enjoyed by all.

And on Tuesday 11th July at the monthly meeting of Glasshouse Country Senior Citizens Club a very informative presentation was given by Karen Clark, Auxiliary Lieutenant from the Salvation Army’s House 4 Hope in Caloundra, which was established more than four years ago.

They provide a range of Salvation Army services counselling, providing food and many other items to those in need, eg the homeless and those sleeping rough. Our members donated a large amount of nonperishable foods, toiletries and knitted items, and there was a very generous cash collection from those members present.
