September 2020 Issue #9

Hello Queen’s Avenue, Happy September!

Where did the Summer go?... It seems like just yesterday the weather was

warming up and we began venturing outside. We also have come a very

long way regarding our Covid-19 reality. I’m happy we were able to have a

very positive, exciting and fun summer with lots of activities and events.

Check out our ladies pictured above, Lorraine, Donna and Mary enjoying

the Happy Trails Country show we had on our outdoor patio. We look for-

ward to celebrating with you this month with some fun new programs and

events planned, we have some of our Vendors coming to our outdoor tent!

We hope to keep enjoying the outdoors for as long as possible and encour-

age the walking club to meet weekdays mornings at 9:30 am meeting in the

Main Lobby.

We look forward to spending this next month making memories.

Let’s Celebrate Together…..

Rexall Health

Solutions

To All Residents,

In preparation for this upcoming flu

season, Rexall Health Solutions is

well positioned to provide you with

both the flu vaccine and timely access

to antiviral medication in the event

that Public Health declares an influen-

za outbreak.

Washing hands, prevents illnesses

and spread of infections to others

Handwashing with soap removes

germs from hands. This helps prevent

infections.

People frequently touch their eyes,

nose, and mouth without even realiz-

ing it. Germs can get into the body

through the eyes, nose and mouth

and make us sick.

Please see Gretel for your flu vaccina-

tion this year.

A Message from Tom

Where Did the Summer Go?

Hello Everyone!!!

When we talk about September, we often talk about things like the

Labour Day Long Weekend, Back to School and cooler tempera-

tures. For me it means that another Summer is almost behind us.

On Tuesday September 22, 2019 we will say “Hello” to Fall.

Do you know why Labour Day in September is a holiday? Labour

Day, unofficially starts the month of September. It is the first Mon-

day in September, and it is a holiday that was created to celebrate

the achievements of Canadian workers. It is a yearly national trib-

ute to workers who work for the prosperity, and well-being of our

country!

Please also take a look at Nicole’s September Activities Calendar. It

has some great events. Please look on your Activity Calendar for

the “End of Summer BBQ Lunch” on September 23rd. Nicole is also

planning to have a Fall Boat Cruise scheduled in and around the

Oakville Harbour. Keep a look out for more details. Keeping active

is important for a balanced lifestyle!

We also have some wonderful news to report. We were advised by

the Oakville Beaver that Queens Avenue Retirement has been

nominated againas the Best Retirement Community in Oakville.

Voting will be begin on September 10, 2020 – so expect to hear

more about this. Just to be nominated is an honour. We do want to

thank everyone for their support. It is a pleasure to serve!

On behalf of all the Queens Avenue team have a great September.
