Members of the Mount Pearl Seniors Independence Group’s Tuesday Friendship Club got a sweet surprise when they convened for their usual get together last week. Waiting for them were special greeting cards made by the 1st Mount Pearl Lions Scout Group Beavers Colony D. “It really brightened their day,” said the Seniors Independence Group’s coordinator, Georgina Smith. “They would like to give a big thank you to all the Beavers.” Shown here showing off their cards are seniors group members, starting in the front row, from left: Alma Burt, Genista Hurley, Yvonne Aker, Maureen Kavanagh, Joan Mannering, Emma Thornhill and Barb Fall; and in the back row, from left: Lillian Martin, Marilyn Sparkes, Linda Collins, Sandra Evans, Marg Williams, Elizabeth Noftall, Olga Jacobs, Rita Evans, Glenda Trepanier, Doreen Moore, Madonna Anthony, Eileen Rogers, Mona Chipman, Alice Walsh, Gertie Norman, Carmel Lahey, Betty Murphy, and Isabell Oliver.
