Instructor: Ernesto Almada
Location: Game Room
Description: Our Watercolor class is an old stand-by. It is not only one of our oldest classes, but is also one of the oldest art forms, going back to paleolithic times. Watercolor where the paints are made of pigments suspended in a water and put onto a liquid soaking paper, most notably, paper. Working with watercolors is difficult because with paint, it stays put. However, with watercolor, the paper and absorption changes the outline and appearance as it dries. Additionally, you have to be careful as colors can run into each other as they are absorbed, changing the shape and color of objects. Then, if you mess up with paint, you can paint over or scrape off the paint, but in watercolor, you might be able to partially correct a mistake by re-wetting and blotting, making errors costly. To help you with this is Ernesto Almada, our Watercolor instructor. Ernesto has lots of experience as an art teacher and brings that experience to our Sketching class.

Description: Does your favorite Christmas song include the line “Pa rum pum pum pum”? Do you just “want to bang on the drum all day”? Or do you just like to drum your fingers on the table? If so we might just have the perfect exercise class for you. Starting on March 3rd, we will be hosting Cardio Drumming, also known as Drums Alive, Exercise Drumming, DrumFit, Pound, and Fit Ball. Cardio Drumming is a type of workout that mixes a variety of standard cardio exercises with a fun and exciting drumming routine. It gets your body pumping out blood to your muscles and increases oxygen retention in your cardiovascular system which results in better overall health, can stave off depression and even has been shown to help clear your body of carbon dioxide and various other waste. Most importantly, cardio drumming is good for your heart and lungs. The instructor will be Julia Ragan We will provide the ball holder and drum sticks, you provide the ball and the energy to march to the beat of your own drum. Well sit actually. We will have some balls on hand but those are limited. The class is free, but donations for Julia are gladly accepted, and takes place on Wednesdays from 8:15 – 9:00 am, and starts with some stretching. After that it’s Buddy Rich time! Or for you younger folk, Ringo Starr.

Vehicle Check Volunteer Wanted
By: Mike Sylva
We are looking for a volunteer for one of the easiest mechanic jobs ever! No spanners, floor jacks, or torque wrenches needed. However, knowing the difference between a dip stick and stick shift is desirable. All we are looking for is someone to come in at least once a week to check our vehicles. Just like the full service of old, check the tire pressure, fluid levels, note any dings, etc. If it helps we will even get you a star and we will trust our car to the man who wears the star. (If you find that sexist please send any complaints to Texaco and date it 30 years ago)
