WHITEWATER REGION (Cobden) — For the third year in a row, the clients at the Bonnechere Manor Cobden Adult and Senior Day Program handed out hand made ornaments to all the businesses on Main St. in Cobden.
At the beginning of November, they begin talking about what type of ornaments they would like to make and if all of their clients would be able to participate fully in the activity. They begun making the ornaments at the end of November and spent a couple weeks on them. Their clients are proud of what they made and look forward to handing them out. They want to spread some Christmas cheer and kindness, and their ornaments are very highly received from their recipients. Some of their ornaments from previous years are still hanging in their store front.
