Village Fair 2025: a Day at the Beach!

Before we o-fish-ally declared it Fall, the Perley Health community busted out their best beachwear one last time for the Annual Perley Health Village Fair.

Every year, Perley hosts a Village Fair (organized and facilitated by the Therapeutic Recreation and Creative Arts team!) to celebrate the entire Perley community; welcoming residents, tenants, staff, volunteers, caregivers, and friends and loved ones to stop by in the afternoon and enjoy some festive fun. This year's theme was a Beach Day, and as you can imagine, the "fun" did not disappoint!

Guests were treated to: a splash station, a toonie BBQ, free ice cream, A Paddy Stewart Music concert, cotton candy, a musical performance by Perley alum (and personal favourite) Trudy, balloon animals, and so much more. Attendees also got an opportunity to meet members of the Community Residents' Council and Tenants' Council at their respective tables (with Housekeeping Supervisor Chris Smith winning the coveted jellybean draw, beating out 50 other contestants!). Members of the Perley Health Board even stopped by to help volunteer and ensure the good times kept rolling.

Check out these special photos captured throughout the day. Special thank you to the Therapeutic Recreation and Creative Arts team for putting on such a special day; nothing says "one last day of summer fun" quite like members of the Leadership Team getting soaked at a dunk tank!
