Photography 101

Capturing special images within our community this summer.

We have a new summer program this year in Options.

Photography.

And the photographers have shown a keen eye when scouting out "subjects".

Seen here are some wonderful shots of the Alton Mill in Alton, ON

We will continue to share the images here and invite you to post comments about the photographs which we will share with our budding, talented photographers.

Thanks to Sara for sharing her special knack of capturing these wonderful shots for us to enjoy!

Heather Katz and music

This week we were thrilled to welcome

Heather Katz

as our special guest performer at our weekly Music Group.

Heather played a large repetoire of favourites, both hers and ours for an hour.

We had a full house and thoroughly enjoyed the new songs that Heather chose to perform.

Rick, our weekly guitarist and singer enjoyed the opportunity to accompany her on guitar lending background vocals along with ours.

Ted, in his usual fine form performed his specialty "jig" to a song chosen just for him by Heather.

Barb followed him up on the dance floor to show us a few steps of her own.

It was a lively group with great music and lots of song and laughter.

A very special Thank you is extended to Heather who closed down her shop; Broadway Musical so that she could come and spend an hour of music with us.
