A Spooktacular Celebration for Orland Township Seniors

Residents had a wickedly good time at the Township’s Halloween luncheon. 

More than 100 residents attended Orland Township’s Senior Halloween Luncheon on Thursday, Oct. 28, for an afternoon full of food, socializing, and fun entertainment.

After a scare-worthy costume contest, guests enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Frankie’s Ristorante in Tinley Park; which included lasagna, sausage, peppers, salad, and Italian bread. Lunch was followed by an amusing show by Magician Jaime Aponte, who was able to persuade guests into assisting with his amazing magic, with added comedy and astonishing illusions.

“We enjoy seeing our residents partake in the many activities Orland Township has to offer,” said Supervisor O’Grady. “I’m glad seniors had a great time at this year’s Halloween Luncheon. The Township looks forward to hosting even more senior events in the coming months.”

For more information on programs, services, and events being held at Orland Township, visit the website, orlandtownship.org, or call (708) 403-4222. Be sure to like the Orland Township Facebook page for more updates.
