Find a Pot of Gold Day
In honor of Saint Patties Day, we will be hiding FOUR pots of gold around the
building, find one and bring it to the office to claim your prize! This will take place
on Friday, the eleventh.
“March comes in like a lion but goes out like a lamb.”
First Day of Spring
Spring is all but sprung. The official date is March the twentieth. As winter goes it’s way, hibernation ends. Time to stretch those muscles and move! Don’t forget to join us Monday, Wednsday, and Fridays for Chair Aerobics! We will be meeting at Ten am. Don’t worry if you can’t do the entire program, working out at your own speed is wonderful, it’s the working out that counts!
Weather permitting, it’s also time for Group Walk again! Tuesdays and Thursdays at two pm we will be meeting out front to stretch those legs and enjoy the sunshine!
March’s flower is the violet
