Emergency Lock Box
Have your ever asked yourself, how could I be rescued if my door was locked? Time is of the essence during a fire or medical emergency. Install a Lock Box – a small weather-resistant metal box that securely holds a set of keys. Should an emergency occur while you are unable to open the door or get out of the residence, Brandon Fires & Emergency Services can access your property without having to break in. Contact Brandon Seniors for Seniors Co-op Inc. for more information.
40th Anniversary Celebrations
We have many exciting activities coming up this year to celebrate our 40th Anniversary at Brandon Seniors for Seniors Co-op Inc. To commemorate we held a High Tea gathering in April and conducted a ceremonial opening of our Patio and Vegetable Garden with a Volunteer Recognition BBQ on June 1st. We recently held our AGM highlighting the successes and a promotional video that was prepared by students from Vincent Massey High School in Brandon. We are planning a Trade Fair, Yard Sale and BBQ for Saturday, August 13, 2022. We are also planning for an Open House coming up in October and the Official 40th Anniversary Celebration in November. Please be watching for these events in our Newsletter, on our bulletin board and on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/brandonsfors
Men’s Club
Did you know that Brandon Seniors for Seniors Co-op Inc. had a Men’s Club? For approximately 2.5 years, the Men’s Club has created a workspace where like-minded men can work shoulder-to-shoulder. Local volunteer men created this club to address a growing need to provide a safe space for men to meet weekly, share ideas, life experiences and provide value to Brandon. If you are interested in becoming a member to participate in workshops, presentations, games, small projects or just a friendly male voice, then please feel free to reach out to us at reception@brandons4s.ca or (204) 571-2050. The group meet every Wednesday from 9:30 AM – 10:30 AM at 311 Park Avenue East in Brandon.
