Peace Country seniors invited to attend bi-annual ‘Seniors Tea’ event

Seniors in Grande Prairie, Beaverlodge, Sexsmith, and Wembley are invited to the County of Grande Prairie’s Family and Community Support Services Bi-annual Seniors Tea event.

Senior-aged residents from across the County, City, and neighbouring communities are being encouraged to attend the event as a celebration of Seniors Week, and a recognition of senior contributions in local communities.

County of Grande Prairie Reeve Bob Marshall says the event is significant as it serves as a reminder of the wisdom and experience so many seniors bring to their communities.

“As we come together to celebrate Seniors’ Week, let us express our gratitude for their contributions and dedication to our community as a whole,” he says.

Sexsmith Mayor Kate Potter credits the bi-annual affair as an important event that fosters connections between seniors and their community representatives.

“The Seniors’ Tea allows us to strengthen our ties to those who have made our communities what they are today,” she says.

The event is scheduled for June 13th from 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the TARA Centre at Evergreen Park and will feature light refreshments, snacks, musical entertainment, door prizes, and an engaging afternoon for everyone in attendance.

Interested individuals are asked to register by June 5th to reserve a spot and registration can be completed by phone at (780)-567-5586 or by emailing [email protected].
