Tuesday, Jan. 7 – Start your New Year’s
resolution of getting in shape now, by checking out the free exercise class,
called Sit ‘n Be Fit at 9:30 a.m. This class is offered every Tuesday and
Thursday mornings. The exercises are low impact, and good for strength and
flexibility. Some are done while sitting and others are done by standing next
to your chair utilizing hand weights, stretch bands, and bouncing balls during
the 45 minute workout. Afterwards, stay and practice some boot scootin’ line
dancing. This will get you a really good workout! In the afternoon, games include; canasta, duplicate
bridge, dominoes, pitch, pool/snooker and jig-saw puzzle solving.
Wednesday, Jan. 8 – The women pool players
will be at it again after the doors open at 9:30 a.m. They have a good time, so
bring your pool stick or use one from the Center and join the fun! Also, Wii
games are played on Wednesday morning at the same opening time. Then, in the
afternoon games of canasta, Texas Hold’em, pool and snooker are played along
with an afternoon movie at 2:00 p.m. The movie for this week is a basketball
true event film entitled: “Coach Carter”.
Thursday, Jan. 9 – The free Sit ‘n Be Fit exercise
class at 9:30 a.m. will give you a good toning workout of your muscles. If you
would like some more exercise, stay after class and join the line dancing group
that meets at 10:30 a.m. They really get to moving and can work up a sweat
while having fun. In the afternoon, get in a game of canasta, dominoes, pool or
snooker. At 2:00 p.m. a wild game of bingo takes place. Everyone is a winner.
Don’t miss out on the fun!
