Weekly seniors visit update - Sept. 25, 2026

Our Seniors Visits season came to a pleasant end with our last visit of the season being at Capital Care Lynnwood on Thursday. 10 Club members brought out their cars along with surprise visit by a member of the Mainstreet Cruisers. We were not sure how she found out about the visit but after seeing the car she arrived in, she was warmly welcomed. Her beautiful ‘64 Ford Galaxy 500 Convertible fit right in! She was also immediately invited to join OUR club but that remains to be seen. The residence had invited folks from another facility and we were soon in the middle of a large crowd of curious and appreciative people. Korene and her staff were busy escorting large amounts of people for the duration of the visit. The residence had also arranged for an entertainer who, once he got set up, provided a pleasant repertoire of golden oldies that everyone enjoyed. Several numbers prompted the crowd to sing along. Our members appreciated the cart with coffee, a cold drink and a couple plates of delicious cookies that seemed to get in one’s mouth! A pleasant treat for sure, thank you! Another huge thank you to today’s participants and to all our members who came out during the season to help brighten the day and maybe bring back some pleasant memories to a whole lot of people. This is why we do this and we are already looking forward to next year!

On Saturday, Sept. 19, 2026, EACC members were invited to tour Parkland Cycle & Lawn in Stony Plain where we got to explore a collection of antiques, collectibles, snowmobiles, motorcycles and bicycles. We then drove to see an extensive private collection of tractors, snowmobiles, cars & trucks.

Weekly seniors visit update

After initially getting rained out, Capital Care Dickensfield hosted the EACC last Tuesday. With help from our friends from the Classic Sports Car Club, 9 cars were on display for the residents to check out. Jennifer and her crew of staff and volunteers brought out a crowd of residents who all seemed to enjoy getting up close with the cars. Having tables again set up nearby proved to be a good idea as residents were able to take a break from the cars or just stop and enjoy being outside in the sunshine. The caramel filled Timbits that were handed out proved to be a big hit as well. A lovely Thank-you card was presented to the Club expressing gratitude that we were able to re-schedule the event after an unfortunate cancellation. Hopefully, better luck next year.
Thursday was also a re-booked event. Age Care Jasper Place was originally to be the very first visit of the season but was cancelled because of rain and cold temperatures. 10 EACC members and one family member in a lovely Corvette filled up the limited space in front of the residence. Debbie, Lizette and their helpers brought out a large number of the 100 residents who call the facility home. Photos were taken of the folks beside their favourite vehicle and several comments were heard about owning similar cars in the past. Glad we could bring back some happy memories! Staff wheeled out a trolley full of goodies for the drivers and offered Nanaimo bars, muffins, fresh cut watermelon and other fruit plus a carafe of coffee for all. A welcome and much appreciated treat, indeed. Despite rumours of a pending move to the Heritage Valley neighbourhood, we are looking forward to returning for a few more years at least.
Thanks to both facilities for the hospitality and to all the members who participated in each visit!

EACC weekly seniors visit update.

What a perfect day for our visit to Emmanuel Home on Tuesday! Blue sky, warm temperatures and light breezes prompted 17 members to come out and enjoy the day with the residents. Three family members with their unique rides rounded out the wheels on display. Our members were treated to a BBQ with hamburgers with all the fixings, cold drinks and other treats. The girls manning the grill were kept busy with the steady stream of hungry people looking for their lunch. Before, during and after lunch members were busy with people looking at the cars but it was when most people had eaten that the crowd picked up. Marie, Ariana and a host of staff and volunteers guided a large number of residents around the parking lot checking out the cars on display. Setting up tables in close proximity to the cars was a brilliant idea, giving people a spot to take a short break during their walk-about if needed. Thanks to everyone involved for the amazing hospitality and delicious lunch. See you next year!
In addition, a special shout-out to member Joyce for posting an additional gallery of photos from the event that readers can find elsewhere on this page. Thank you Joyce!
Thursday on the other hand was a bit different for our visit to the Edmonton General Hospital. The cool and very windy weather presented a few challenges for Pollyana and her staff when bringing out their residents. Despite the conditions, they were able to bring out a large number of folks, many wrapped in extra blankets or wearing winter jackets. A great deal of interest was shown in the 12 cars that our members brought out and we were surrounded by large and appreciative crowds on several instances. This location is right along Jasper Avenue and we had several people who were walking by come over to have a look. Everybody was welcomed warmly. Thanks to the hospital for the hot coffee and cookies that helped make the day even more pleasant. We’ll be back!
