Application For Admission To The

Windsor Club OLD Folks Home

By E. Bjornstad

Preference will be given to those persons who find that Windsor Club Social Evenings are too hectic and consequently stay away.

The home is available to persons of any age who are incapacitated to the extent that they are unable to lift a curling rock to join in Windsor Club curling.

Also given priority status will be those persons who cannot keep up the pace in the Annual Windsor Club Cribbage Tournament.

Those persons who choose not to attend the Annual Windsor Club Barbecue for steaks can have their names entered on the waiting list.

As Windsor Club Shuffleboard Tournaments are classed as a strenuous sport, persons who do not take part in these are asked to take a medical examination prior to application.

For those persons who continuously squat in front of the T.V. while all the above Windsor Club activities are going on and consequently are unable to stand erect, special assistance will be given by active Windsor Club Members, if they are available, or exist.

No fee shall be charged by the Home, but a board of examiners shall pass on all applications. To be fair, the board must decide which persons have been dead the longest in order to establish priorities. This will be done by checking the attendance record of past Windsor Club meetings.

Meet Ron Seal

By Jane Dikeman

Ron Seal is maintenance supervisor at Lindbergh. He was born in the community of Ethel Wyn which is 15 miles from Lindbergh, Alberta on April 6, 1916.

As maintenance supervisor he is in charge of all maintenance for all plant areas and town site in Lindbergh. His hobbies are gardening and fishing and also enjoys golfing and curling. A football fan, he supports the Edmonton Eskimos until the hockey season rolls around when he becomes a Toronto Maple Leaf fan.

On May 1, 1947 he married Lillian, better known as Lily, and together they have had five children ; Lorraine, Cheryl, Dale, Myrna and Tom. As far as the younger generation is concerned Ron says the only thing wrong with them is that they are younger than we are. Ron and Lily hope to make a visit to British Columbia this summer and Ron hopes to do some trout fishing.
