We hope these weekly updates are helpful. Thank you all for your continued support.
May 26 was a special day of recognition for seven inspiring seniors in Calgary, and some lucky AgeCare Seton seniors joined virtually to cheer them on and recall their own life achievements!
Top 7 over 70 is an annual gala that recognizes seniors for noteworthy achievements they have pioneered after the age of 70. The concept reinforces that age is no barrier for those who seek to innovate, invent, and make positive contributions in the world.
This year, gala organizers live-streamed the sold-out event to include AgeCare Seton residents - amplifying the message that all older adults have made their mark in the world.
Seton staged a grand screening event that included games, delicious snacks, a professional photo booth, and activities designed to encourage reflection on personal achievements. Residents proudly shared some of the following accomplishments:
Building adaptive equipment for disabled individuals
Raising three beautiful children as a single mother
Being a part of and volunteering for the Lions Club
Travelling the whole world
Saving someone’s life and receiving a National Life Saving Award
Being a volunteer firefighter
Being an accomplished oil painter
Also in attendance at the Seton event were some members of the Calgary Stampede Youth Band. Their spirited interaction with the residents made for a touching reminder that respect and admiration flows generously both ways, no matter the age or stage in life.
