On Tuesday, Sept. 15, Country Meadows hosted a community bike decorating parade.  The weather was cool but that did not stop the event from happening. 

The parade was moved inside for residents, family and staff to enjoy.  

Twenty three youth showed off their very creatively decorated bikes and their costumes.  Prizes were awarded to the participants.  After the parade, local band Swamp Gas performed for everyone to enjoy along with their ice-creams, courtesy of Dairy Queen.  

A big thank you to all of the children and their families for participating.  The residents at Country Meadows loved having them come for the evening.  Thank you also to the judges: Heather Todoruk, Val Wilson and Judy Gabler.  

To family members, volunteers, and staff: thank you for all your help putting on the event.  Country Meadows would not be able to host such big events without you all.  Country Meadows will definitely do this event again next year!
