If nothing else, this has been an earth-shaking week! First we'd been reminded from every possible media outlet that today (at least it's today as I write) is the ten year anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States.

The results of the senior Centre's activities for the week of September 4 to September 10: Bridge: (Monday) 1st Basil Holyer, 2nd George Gillies, 3rd Annie Balzer. Bridge: (Friday) 1st Vern Leach, 2nd Erskine Sandiford, 3rd Lucie Nickel.
