On March
19th,
Montgomery
sponsored
Pub
Night at
the
Perley
Health
Centre.
It was a
great
success
thanks
to
“Karaoke
King”
Gerry
Pushman
and his
lovely
assistant
Terry.
There
were
over 50
residents
and
staff in
attendance.
It was
great to
see so
many of
them
singing
along,
clapping
and
grooving
to the
tunes.
There
were
even
some
brave
souls
who sang
solos
and
duets.
 Many
residents
and
staff
commented
that it
was out
doubt
one of
the best
Pub
nights
they
have
had.
Also
thanks
to
Branch
members,
Lisa
Morris,
Luc
Chrétien,
Tim
Blanchard,
Brent
MacDonald
and Joan
McCorkell
who
ensured
everyone
had
drinks
and
plenty
of
snacks. |
