Hi Everyone,

Our Strong Life Director, Michelle Conard, has been leading a special class called PACE that focuses on exercises for residents with arthritis. It has been so popular and beneficial that Michelle has started an advanced PACE class twice weekly. Our first class had 13 residents participating and 3 other dresidents saying they will attend the next class. In PACE II the residents are introduced to exercising with a Theraband which is a stretchy material that they pull on as they stretch different muscles. The residents also had a lot of fun playing with the Therabands and trying to "snap" each other! It's a great class for getting stronger, getting healthier, and getting connected!

Have a wonderful weekend and God Bless You.

Patty Mathews
Executive Director
