Cold weather have you trapped indoors? Need some exercise? Henry Cooper will
be starting a "Beginners Fitness Class" on January 27. The class will be held in
the Strength Training room of the field house at the Middle/High School (located
at the far end of the parking lot behind the Middle School). Henry is a former
fitness center manager, and has had years of experience helping women and
men of all ages improve their fitness levels. The class will be held from 4 to 6
p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays; there is no charge for the class. The target
audience is people who would like to improve their fitness, but have never been
involved with a strength training program before. To enroll, call the Lights On!
office at 354-7595.
Bob Bonar has agreed to coordinate our ACT Prep class, for students who would
like to improve their chances of scoring well on the ACT exam. ACT scores are a
key factor in deciding who does or does not receive a Promise scholarship. They
may also help determine whether a student gets into a particular college, and
whether a student has to take remedial work once he or she gets to college. For
all these reasons, we strongly encourage high school students to sign up for this
free class, which will be offered from 4 to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays, starting January
27. (Comparable classes often cost into three figures when offered by private
educational services.) Students can sign up in the Lights On! office.
Thanks to Jean Simers and Pat Radabaugh, and to all the hard-working members
of the committee who have volunteered to plan a celebration of three years of
Lights On! activities in Calhoun County. They will be putting out publicity. I'll just
say now that it will be a comprehensive, don't-miss-it event, scheduled from 1 to
4 p.m. at the Middle/High School on Saturday, May 1.
Richard Magly's very-popular "Yoga" class will be returning shortly. Call the
Lights On! office to enroll. Several people who have some prior yoga experience
have said that on a scale of one to ten, his class is the only ten they've ever
experienced. Highly recommended! For beginners as well as for more
experienced students.
