It is Canada Day 2025 and Islington 2000/2010 is ready to party. The social committee has big plans for tonight. Wear your Canadian colours and celebrate the country we love.
Here’s a video to remind everyone why we celebrate today. 

Last night we wrapped up our bi-weekly Trivia Night for the summer. We filled the room and moreover filled it with laughter and playfulness. The success of our Trivia Nights is all down to our wonderful quizmaster Rhonda and her camera-shy sidekick Paula. Every two weeks they research, plan and organize the whole thing, making it all look easy.

Trivia Night is one of the few events that attracts residents of various ages.  The teams of four are randomly chosen, and the mix of generations is a strength for a team because it provides a range of useful experience. Look for Trivia again in September. 

Another sucessful party. Thank you to the ever efficient social committee and volunteers. Happy spring one and all! The grounds, fountain, waterfall and outdoor pool look magnificent. We can’t wait for the BBQ area to open. Let’s enjoy our unique amenities.

There was plenty of snow in the days before and after St. Valentine’s Day. But staying inside was no hardship. Residents here always have many ways to socialize without leaving the building. This week along with our usual activities (aquabics, bistro, card games, dancercise, trivia, scopa) we had a Valentine Crafternoon for the little ones on Saturday, some great fun singing along to familiar songs on Tuesday evening and a suprise ice cream social on Friday evening at our regular Friday happy hour – when we extend the bistro hours to welcome the weekend (on the fountain deck in good weather and indoors when it’s cold outside). Everyone is invited to join any of these events and more. Check the digiboard and bulletin boards for hints about what’s on each day.

A special evening at Islington 2000/2010! The Social Committee planned a wonderfully festive party this year, with great food, sparkling decorations, dancing and even a sing-along. Wishing everyone the joy of the season, health and happiness in 2025!
