Bernard Adulphos, Chairperson - Board
"The ladies and the supervisors have planned a 12 days activity and they ask me to be here with them and as a result it is important that we do this so that at least our seniors are not forgotten and at least show our public what other can do for them because it is important. Yes they are here but they are not forgotten. So we get them involved in this Christmas Cheer which is an important aspect of this activity for us. The churches are coming and we got some from Wesley coming here. We understand other members from the police section is coming here. An invitation was sent out to other uniform service, but we haven't got anything yet. Other people are coming in and will do something. I have a time when I am coming in to show Christmas movies. We have a steel band coming in here."

Stacey Smith, GSU
"It's a very important initiative right, because they are elderly and elderly are very important persons in our community. We have to respect and appreciate and we have to get involve with them. Earlier this year we did one such initiative and we came here and the feeling was overwhelming, so we had to come back. Today we brought some items, items that they need and use on a day to day basis as well as some grapes and apples. I think the most important thing that we brought is interaction and they have been receiving it very well and I think we are the ones who are benefitting because the joy that comes from it is unmatched."

Sam Bonilla, GSU
"Today we are here and we are showing the public that the GSU is not all about roughing up people, it's about the love that we have for people likewise and we are giving back."

Today's event is part of the 12 Days of Activities for the Elderly initiative.
