A high school in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, has an annual dance where students invite senior citizens from the community to the big event! Most of the seniors are from low-income housing units and the dance gives them a rare chance to get out and not be shut-in! Transportation is provided and students in the cooking class help prepare and serve the meals for the evening and the night includes performances. It's been a tradition for nearly 30 years! What a great idea! Thumbs UP to the school and students for treating these elderly to a night out and with respect!
