Bonsor 55+ Snooker Group Celebrates Year End in Style!
A delightful awards luncheon was hosted by this group at the Kirin restaurant at the end of August to celebrate a very successful year by the Snooker Group. Awards were given to tournament winners, including best improved, best all-around sportsman, and winners of the coveted cup. Dignitaries from the lower mainland and the President of the Society as well as the board liaison were in attendance, and the ever-present camaraderie of the group was evident to all lucky enough to be there to share in the festivities.

Sing-Along Celebrates End of Spring Session 2023
Approximately 40 participants and guests joined in to create a wonderful luncheon and much lively music to celebrate the end of their Spring Session. This activity has grown so much this year, partly due to the enthusiasm of the Group's leaders and wonderful talent of the musicians. They will convene again in the fall, and all are welcome.
Open Art Studio Lunar New Year 2023 Display
To celebrate Lunar New Year, the Open Art Studio prepared an art display shown in the Bonsor 55+ Lounge. The New Year theme artwork done by group members showed off a wide variety of medium including print making and Chinese painting. Hope you enjoy the display as much as we enjoy doing it.
Our group has also moved to the larger room in the north side of the building and our time has changed to 1:45 -3:45pm on Tuesdays. We are now able to welcome more members. Do drop by to visit if you are interested in our group's activities.

Bonsor 55+ Sing-a-long
The Bonsor 55+ Sing-a-long started about 20 years ago. We sing beautiful songs from the 1950s, 60s, classicals and famous Broadway musicals. We have a musical team consisting of a pianist, two guitarists, two drummers, two song leaders plus two volunteers who prepare coffee and snacks. We use a large mirrored room on the second floor of Bonsor Complex where you can dance with some of the music.
Each member is made available a song book with lyrics. You have 2 opportunities to sing a solo, duet, play an instrument or dance at each session.
We celebrate Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Remembrance Day, Christmas, etc. We collect 50 cents for coffee or tea. Some members bring snacks, food and donate flowers.
From the feedback we received, our members enjoy the sessions very much. We grew from 25 members 4 years ago to about 45 members and our membership is still growing. Membership is free, but you must be a member of the Bonsor 55+ Society.
We meet every other Thursday from 12:45 to 2:45pm at the Bonsor Recreation Complex main building, multi-use rooms 1&2 (upstairs).
You are very welcome to join us for the nice music and have fun!
