A Splash of Lilac Delight at Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre

on Wednesday, October 4, 2023

It's that time of the year in Goulburn – the Goulburn Lilac City Festival! Last week, the Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre transformed into a haven of lilac, spreading cheer and warmth through their lilac-themed celebration.

The festival fever began as the residents of Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre gathered for their craft sessions. With enthusiasm and creativity in the air, they rolled up their sleeves, picked up paintbrushes, and brought their lilac dreams to life. The result? A breathtaking array of lilac decorations that adorned every nook and cranny of the centre.

One of the centerpieces of their artistic endeavors was a splendid lilac balloon arch that graced the reception area, welcoming all who entered with a whimsical flourish. It was a testament to the residents' commitment to making this year's Lilac City Festival truly special.

The festivities reached their peak at the Lilac-themed party. The atmosphere was filled with joy and laughter as the residents and staff came together to celebrate. The lilac decorations served as a vibrant backdrop for the day's events, creating an atmosphere of pure enchantment.

To add a touch of competitive spirit to the celebration, the Lilac-themed party featured games and trivia related to Goulburn's beloved Lilac City Festival. Participants tested their knowledge and had a blast with questions that spanned the festival's history, its cultural significance, and the vibrant community that has embraced it over the years.

Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre's Lilac-themed festivities were not just a celebration of colour, but a heartwarming embrace of Goulburn's beloved Lilac City Festival. Through the dedicated efforts of the residents and the creative spirit of the staff, the centre transformed into a lilac wonderland for the day.

The Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre's Lilac-themed party was a vivid reminder that the spirit of the Lilac City Festival lives on, bringing joy and unity to the hearts of Goulburn's residents, young and old alike. It's more than just a festival; it's a celebration of heritage, community, and the colours that bind us all together.
