Senior Circle

The Navarro Regional Hospital Senior Circle group traveled to Niagara Falls and Toronto in October. The group is pictured at the floral clock on the Niagara Parkway. The floral design is changed twice a year by the Niagara Parks horticulture staff. Sites that the group visited included: Loretta Lynn Ranch; Niagara Falls; Skylon Tower for a breathtaking view of the falls; Victoria Park; Niagara on the Lake; Castle Loma in Toronto; Chocolate Fix factory; Roxi glass factory; Ride on the “Maid of the Mist” right up to the falls; wine country; Clifton Hill; the Wellland Shipping Canal; Flagship Niagara in Erie, Pa.; and much more. Everyone had a very memorable trip but the group stated that they value the new friendships they made on the trip more than anything.
