Olds and District Hospice Society

November 10th – Olds Legion  10 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Olds and District Hospice Society would like to thank Dr. Jody Carrington for her heart felt presentation about grief. She shared with this community gathering very useful information about dealing with the pain of loss. This event was not meant as a  fund raiser for our society but an attempt to offer some help with grief to our community.  November is starting with gratitude towards the students from the high school whom have made stars.  These stars may be purchased at “A Touch of Christmas ” craft sale at the Canadian Legion November 10th. The stars are meant to be a  tribute to people in our lives that will be missed this Christmas season.  A Light up of the Olds and District  Hospice Society “Tree of Remembrance” will take place November 23rd in Centennial park in Olds. Tinsel and Tears in support of those experiencing grief will take place in the board room in the basement of the Hospice office building November 28th at 7-9.  Please register at Hospice Office 403-586-9992.  November 30th and December 1st there will be a Palliative Care training session. Registration for this 2 day course is also at the hospice office number.  Last but not least …the Annual General Meeting will be held November 21st at the Hospice Office Board room. Everyone is welcome to attend.  Annual fees will be collected from voting members of the society.
