Photos: AON Inc. Hosts Open House to Four Retirement Homes After Four-Year Hiatus

AON Inc’s four retirement homes properties hosted their open house after a four-year hiatus on Saturday afternoon.

All four properties, Princess Gardens, Canterbury Gardens, Empress Gardens and Royal Gardens, held open houses from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. to showcase their facilities to potential residents.

“I'm absolutely thrilled to be back to doing what we did before the pandemic,” said Heather Young, Canterbury Gardens executive director. “We're very involved in the community. We host events quite regularly and we have people in our homes and we're able to show our beautiful homes. We do fundraisers and different endeavours. Today is really about getting back to that and showing the public our homes again and being able to get back to normal.”

The open houses were filled with live entertainment, catering, dancing, recreation, free draws and tours to showcase what the retirement homes had.

“Those who came and joined us during the pandemic really have no idea just exactly what we do and how we do it so this is really exciting for them as well,” explained Young. “This is the first time they're being exposed to what we do normally when we're able to do it. To get out there and to have events and have fun and have entertainment so it's really nice for the people that didn't know how we did things to join us.”
