| Appropriate Living Quarters for Seniors |
The Provincial Elks Association of Saskatchewan has long been associated with a project called "Saskatchewan Elks Seniors Homes." The goal is to provide appropriate living quarters and accommodations for Saskatchewan Seniors. By providing these homes in various centres Seniors can mingle with their friends and families rather than having to move to other locations.
After considerable planning, a sod turning ceremony for the construction of the first 20 units was held in Prince Albert in November 1958, with the official opening of these units in October 1959. This auspicious occasion only led to more units being constructed in Esterhazy, Moose Jaw, Nipawin, & Rosetown.
The Elks recently added additional Senior Homes in Hanley, Moosomin and Davidson, bringing the total rental units to 131.
"We look forward to expanding the number
of units available for our Seniors."
