Brightening up Princess Court in Dryden and uplifting the residents who live there.
That was the purpose of a pre-COVID-19 campaign by local students and members of the Princess Court Family Council.
Council Chair Carol Gardam talked about the project at a Dryden Rotary Club virtual meeting Wednesday.
Gardam says they painted the six benches outside in bright, cheerful colours.
She notes “the benches are used by residents and families when they are visiting and are at the main entrance so they are also a nice welcome to all visitors coming into the building.”
Gardam adds they had students put their art up on the bulletin boards as well as had high school students paint murals in the hallways.
Gardam stresses it was a great opportunity to have our youth interact with seniors.
