Fun Facts: • The summer solstice is the day with the longest amount of sunlight. • The sun is the highest it will be in the sky all year, which also makes this the day that your shadow will be the shortest! • In the Southern Hemisphere, this is the shortest day of the year and marks the arrival of winter. • Even though it has most daylight hours of the year, the earliest sunrises of the year occur about a week before the summer solstice! The Safari Snack Cart • The planet Uranus is tilted by almost 98 degrees and has seasons that last 21 years!

The Bradley Cafe A Father’s Day Poem A father is a person who loves and respects you. He is honest and he never neglects you. He is the greatest that your eyes will ever see. No other man like him will there ever be. When you are in your bedroom and scared at night; A father comes in to let you know that everything is alright. Education is important, so stay in school; hanging out on the streets is not so cool. Listen to me son, so the day you become a man, Like me, you will do everything you can. A father is like no other man around Another man like him can never be found. -Sally B. Williams

Scenic Drives Sue has been taking us on some incredible scenic drives. A resident favourite last month was definitely the Tulip Festival! The history of the Tulip Festival is that after the Allies liberated the Netherlands in 1945, the Dutch royal family returned home. The gift of tulips is an ongoing tradition, and each year the people of the Netherlands and the Dutch royal family each send 10,000 bulbs to Canada in recognition of the close ties between the two countries! It is a beautiful sight!
