AKRON, Ohio – A charity calendar featuring women in their 80s and 90s from an Ohio assisted living facility is opening more than a few eyes.
The residents of the Pleasant Pointe Assisted Living near Akron decided to show a little skin in calendar. The centerfolds are two women in their 90s appearing to play poker with strategically placed oversize cards.
The 87-year-old Miss February is soaking in a bubble bath and flower petals while another resident in the calendar is covered only by a large exercise ball.
Administrator Teresa Morris tells The Akron Beacon Journal (http://bit.ly/1x0K3x3 ) that the residents were giggling and acting like 20-year-olds when the photos were taken.
Money from the $12 calendars goes toward providing shoes for children in the city of Barberton.
