Old friends, new friends, and a beautiful day spent together! ☀️🧺

Today, residents from **High Country Lodge**, **Sandstone Lodge**, and **Medicine Tree Manor** gathered in George Lane Park with our friends from **Venvi's The Heartland** for a wonderful picnic filled with laughter, conversation, and connection.

There’s something special about sharing good food, warm sunshine, and great company.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for making it such a memorable afternoon. Here's to celebrating friendship, community, and the simple joy of spending time together! 💚🌳🍉

Did you know that Alberta ranks as the 2nd highest in households who are food insecure. We are the highest in Canada for having the most in the severe category. That means 28.4% households cannot meet their basic food needs. You can help!
