Spanish - Beginning

Length: 8 weeks
Cost: $8 members

Instructor: Ernesto Almada
Location: Game Room
Description: ¿Habla usted Español? If not you can learn by taking our Spanish class. Spanish is both a vulgar yet romantic language! The history of the Spanish language in Spain and the origin of the dialects of Spain begin with the linguistic evolution of Vulgar Latin. From those humble beginnings, it has evolved into the most widely spoken Romance language, both in terms of number of speakers and the number of countries in which it is the dominant language with over 500 million Spanish speakers worldwide. Ernesto will focus on conversational Spanish.
Featured Activity
Othello
Time: Wednesdays 10:00 am
Cost: FREE members
FREE non-members
Location: Dining Room
Description: One of our members, Michael Haynes, has offered to teach and organize players for the game of Othello. This is a game you will flip out over! A two player game, the strategy is to trap and capture your opponent’s pieces by placing your disks on the board. Player start with four, and add one each turn. Every time you "sandwich" one or more of your opponent's pieces you flip those disks to your color, but your opponent will try and do the same to you. Winning means having more pieces on the board than their opponent. The game is considered finished when there are no spaces left on the board or there are no more possible legal moves for either player. If you know the Othello game OR want to learn it check it out. Michael will provide all the things you need to play.

Health fair 2016
By: Mike Sylva
With the last gasp of summer producing temps in the low 90\'s, it was hard to think of the Flu Season. Yet in the words of Benjamin Franklin, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” We had nearly 200 people show up for the cure. Some others even got the cure from other places, but came for all the other information and goodies our other vendors brought with them.
With shots being offered back in September just about anywhere, our crowds aren’t what they used to be, but for those who did not like waiting in line for 45 minutes, it was a smooth flowing line. People got to ask questions at the various booths, get lots of freebies, all at a leisurely pace.
We would like to acknowledge that the success of our health fair would not have been possible without all the vendors who came out to provide information and services to all. Additional thanks go out to the Highland Police Department’s Citizen’s Patrol for their excellent traffic control and parking assistance. Mostly we would like to thank our event sponsors, the Physicians of Beaver Medical Group and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians.
