Another wonderful week of moments, memories, and new experiences here at The Belmont!

This week brought something a little different and exciting, as Harold joined us for private tarot card readings. The response was incredible — so many of our clients were eager to take part that we filled three full days of appointments! It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying something new, sharing stories, laughter, and curiosity along the way.

We were also so happy to welcome back the lovely Maureen after being south for the winter months ..once again serenading us with her beautiful voice and timeless music that brought back so many cherished memories.

Of course, our weekly yoga session with the wonderful Sass Dempsey from Creemore Wellness Sanctuary continues to be a favourite, bringing movement, relaxation, and smiles to all who participate.

Carol was also back making sure everyone was looking and feeling their very best with fresh haircuts and visits full of conversation and laughter.

And to finish off the week, today we’ll be enjoying our “Brine & Brew” social — gathering together to sample our homemade pickled eggs while enjoying great company and perhaps a brew or two! 🍻🥚

Stay tuned for photos from our Brine & Brew social!

Some more wonderful highlights from this past week here at The Belmont!

As the warmer weather begins to arrive, we’ve been so happy to enjoy the outdoor spaces at our temporary home and soak up some sunshine together.

Our pickling workshop was a huge hit, with everyone enjoying the hands-on experience and sharing plenty of laughs along the way. Chair yoga with the one and only Sass Dempsey continues to be one of our most popular weekly programs, always bringing great participation, movement, and positive energy. We also enjoyed another fun-filled bingo afternoon with Donna, which is always a favourite here at The Belmont.

We were also treated to a very special visit from adorable baby chicks and ducklings brought in by our wonderful friends at CCI — a visit that brought so many smiles and sweet moments to everyone’s day.

A heartfelt thank you to Clearview Seniors Wish for dropping off some lovely treats for our clients — your kindness and support are truly appreciated.

Carol was also in this week making sure everyone was feeling refreshed and looking fabulous, as always!

And of course, birthdays at The Belmont are always a very special celebration. Every client receives their very own personalized cake on their special day, because we believe everyone deserves to feel celebrated and cherished.

It’s the little moments, laughter, friendships, and sense of community that continue to make The Belmont feel like home.

This week at The Belmont, our clients enjoyed creating beautiful polymer clay keepsake dishes!

This hands-on enrichment activity took creativity, patience, and strength, as polymer clay is quite firm to work with. Our clients rolled, shaped, baked, and carefully decorated each unique piece by hand.

Activities like these are wonderful for maintaining dexterity, coordination, and hand strength — all while encouraging creativity and social connection.

We are so proud of their beautiful creations!
Be sure to check out some of the finished results!

Mother’s Day at The Belmont 🌸

What a beautiful day it was celebrating Mother’s Day here at The Belmont!

Our day began with a wonderful buffet luncheon, accompanied by the warm and elegant sounds of Neil’s Jazz Trio, creating the perfect ambience for such a special occasion. Each of our ladies received a beautiful floral teacup arrangement from The Belmont. These lovely arrangements were available through Rural Roots Nursery, who kindly featured them in their farm shop in support of the Creemore Horticultural Society . Just another wonderful example of local businesses supporting local community initiatives — something we truly love to see!

A heartfelt thank you as well to our friends at Bakery By The Bay, who once again spoiled us with beautifully handcrafted flower cupcakes for each of our ladies. Their kindness and generosity added such a sweet touch to the day.

We also took time to celebrate and recognize our incredible staff who spent Mother’s Day caring for others. Each staff member working received a beautiful bouquet of flowers as a small token of our appreciation for all they do.

To end the day, everyone enjoyed a full turkey dinner with all the fixings — the perfect finish to a truly wonderful Mother’s Day celebration filled with laughter, music, appreciation, and community.

Stay tuned… we’ll soon be sharing some heartfelt “motherly advice” from our wonderful clients 💐

At The Belmont, we are proud to support local in every way we can. ❤️

From the quality products we use in our kitchen to the wonderful businesses and people who support us, community means everything to us.

Just a few of the frequent local spots we shop and support include:
• Alliston Creamery
• Alliston Potatoes
• Jamie’s Main & Local for their bread, buns, milk, sauces, rubs, deli meats, and continued support of local producers.

Most recently, we were introduced to the lovely Penny from Cornucopia Farms LLC, whose freshly farm-picked greens are now available through Jamie’s Main & Local! 🌱
Fresh-picked, locally grown, and delivered right here from Clearview, Ontario. Be sure to ask Jamie — he may be able to order some in for you!

At The Belmont, we also do our best to support local charities, community fundraisers, local clubs, local schools, Legion poppy campaigns, and initiatives that help strengthen the communities around us. We believe supporting local is about much more than business — it’s about people helping people.

As our communities continue to grow and more large chain and box stores arrive, it is wonderful to see growth and opportunity. While larger stores may offer the convenience of getting everything in one stop, many products are mass sourced and lack the personal touch and quality that small local businesses provide — whether it’s homemade goods, locally grown produce, handcrafted items, or personalized service. Small businesses are the heart of our communities, and they are often the first to step up and support others when help is needed most.

The Belmont also continues to host our metal recycling bin at the front of the building located at 7232 Hwy 26. All proceeds from the bin will be donated to support both the New Lowell and Stayner Legions. 🇨🇦

And another heartfelt thank you to Bakery by the Bay for always thinking of us and for the delicious treats you continue to send our way. 🍪💛

Supporting local strengthens our community — and we are proud to be part of it

At The Belmont, our strength is our people — and what an incredible team we have.

We are more than just staff… we are a family. Through some of the most challenging and unimaginable circumstances, this team has continued to show up, stand strong, and support one another without hesitation.

Their dedication is truly unmatched. In a sector where staffing challenges are common, our team’s commitment shines — with virtually no call-offs, a level of reliability that sets us apart in everything we do.

We don’t claim to be perfect, but we are always learning, growing, and moving forward together. That’s what makes us strong. That’s what makes us different.

Our team takes pride in what they do, in the care they provide, and in being part of The Belmont.

And it shows — every single day.
