Bonsor 55+ Badminton Fall Lunch and Updates
On October 3, 2018, Bonsor 55+ Badminton held a lunch party at Floata Seafood Restaurant in Vancouver’s Chinatown. A total of 82 members and guests enjoyed the delicious eight course lunch.
After lunch, we all sang group karaoke. It was great to see everyone participating, singing, and laughing. Even Mary Horton and Peter McConville went up and sang ‘Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star’. After singing, we did line dancing which was led by Dora Chan. Many of us joined the dance to burn off the calories from lunch. To top off the fun filled event, everyone received gifts and prizes to take home. All of us had a wonderful time and enjoyed the lunch party.
A big thanks to all our helpers, Peter McConville, Norman Eng, Robert Wang, Dora Chan, Betty Tse, and Stephen Lai. The lunch party would not have been the same without their help. Special thanks to our guest of honour, Mary Horton. We are happy to see the return of the healthy Mary.
