Montclair Residence Trip # 2

A group of us went to volunteer at the Montclair residence yesterday and had a fabulous time! After some good ol' bean-bag tossing (a true favourite among the residents - refer to the pictures and video below) and a hearty game of BINGO, time flew by! It was truly an eventful trip to Montclair - can anyone say O64?... BINGO!

We don't know it yet in this picture but Man-Yi is handing over bean-bags to the woman who will soon be crowned the ultimate bean-bag toss champion. She had a mean throw that could "knock down the house" (quote by another of the residents who participated in the competition).

Ready-set-go! Here we have another resident preparing for her throw as Audrey cheers her on.

This is Margaret, the volunteer coordinator and one of the elderly caretakers (though you can't tell from this angle) - she was one of the participants in the bean-bag toss as well.
Tea time after a tiring, but fun game of bean-bag toss and Bingo-calling.

The minute we saw this swing-chair-table-thing outside of Montclair, we had to try it out. Best 45 seconds of my life. No joke.

And to save the best for last: the video!
(the quality isn't superb but it was shot on a camera phone - sorry!)
