March 2015 News
By Jackie Lloyd (683-1680 or [email protected])
March is here and spring is just around the corner. In fact, a quick walk through the gardens the other day
revealed signs of new sprouts and trees with swelling buds. But beware, Mother Nature can be fickle with
winter weather roaring back at any time. Don’t forget, this month we spring forward with our clocks
on the 8th.
We apologize to all of our users for the week this past month without heat. The problem with the furnace
was baffling and it took several days to diagnose and fix the problem. Thanks to George Grandy, Tom Lloyd
and Chuck Waller for their hours of time spent that week, both monitoring the work and then actually
completing the final fix.
Our next immediate project at the Center is painting the main room and entryway. We will be removing all
the plastic hooks around the walls and ask that any group wishing to decorate for their events not use them in
the future. They are advertised as being easy to remove without harming the painted surfaces, NOT. On our
walls they cause much damage when removing. The decorating committee will be researching permanent
decorative hooks to install around the window and serving areas after the painting is complete. By the way,
thanks to Marilyn Stanton for chairing this committee and thanks to her helpers, Sue Damon, Cindy Gardner
and myself for the beautiful decorations commemorating Valentine’s Day. The committee will continue to
decorate with different themes throughout the year as the seasons dictate. Volunteers needed, please, call me.
A huge thanks to the Chamber for the Valentine’s Day Sock Hop. It was an enormous success. Most
attendees were polled and asked for a repeat with a resounding “do it again”. So, look for another come late
April. I hear the theme will be Western, and for sure we will get some Line Dancing going. Details can be
found in our next issue.
Because of some delays, the Art exhibits will be pushed back another month, this time we will shoot for our
first showing in April. Not only do we have to remove the hooks, repair any damage to the walls, and paint,
but we also have to install a hanging system that does not damage the walls and allows for flexibility in size
and shapes of the works to be displayed. Once again, any artist wishing to have their works displayed, contact
me.
Our first add in outside media for Center Event rentals, will be placed this month. Many of our user groups
have already secured their meeting times for the summer, so please, if you are thinking of having a meeting or
soiree in our beautiful Center, please contact me soon. We also have made the initial contacts necessary to
get a website going and hopefully will be online by the end of the month.
This year LOU has devoted one Wednesday a month as a fundraiser for the ABC food bank in Athol. On
this day we ask volunteers to donate prepared food to share, casserole, side, salad, dessert; a smorgasbord of
food. All money collected in our donation cans on this day goes to the food bank. So far, this has been a very
successful program and has helped a local worthwhile and needy service organization. This month we are
moving the fundraiser from the last Wednesday of the month to March 18 th. Our theme will be St. Patty’s Day
and we ask donors to make a stew (Irish or otherwise), salads, soda bread and desserts in that theme. As far
as the rest of March the LOU menu is as follows: March 4 th, Pork chops; March 11th, Chili Fest; March 18th,
Irish fundraiser; March 25th, Baked Ziti.
Please join us on Wednesdays at noon for lunch. LOU is now in its 4 th season and is going stronger than
ever. And note, LOU is self-sustaining. Thank you Bayview for supporting this great community event.
Friday Night at the movies will resume its regular times on the first and third Friday of the month at 7pm.
On March 6th we will feature “Boyhood” and on March 20th “And So It Goes” will be showing.
Please note that Wednesday Yoga will be moved from 7pm to 10am and will meet downstairs. It also meets
in the lower room when a conflict of other scheduled events arises. This month those conflicts occur on
March 19th and March 24th. Zumba continues at 9am on Wednesdays and is a fun and energetic way to burn
calories. Tai Chi also continues at its regular Friday 9:30am time.
A quick thanks to Jim and Jamie Berube for their donation of a really nice bookcase which has been added
to our library. The final arrangement is not complete and will need some further work. AND SO IT GOES!

About Tai Chi by Karl Andreasson
Tai Chi, as it is practiced in the west today, can
perhaps best be thought of as a moving form of yoga and
meditation combined. There are a number of so- called forms (sometimes also
called 'sets') which consist of a sequence of movements. Many of these
movements are originally derived from the martial arts (and perhaps even more
ancestrally than that, from the natural movements of animals and birds) although
the way they are performed in Tai Chi is slowly, softly and gracefully with
smooth and even transitions between them.
For many practitioners the focus in doing them is not, first and foremost,
martial, but as a meditative exercise for the body. For others the aspects of
Qi Gong are of considerable interest. In Chinese philosophy and medicine there
exists the concept of 'chi', a vital force that animates the body. One of the avowed
aims of Tai Chi is to foster the circulation of this 'chi' within the body, the belief
being that by doing so the health and vitality of the person are enhanced. This
'chi' circulates in patterns that are close related to the nervous and vascular system
and thus the notion is closely connected with that of the practice of acupuncture
and other oriental healing arts.
Another aim of Tai Chi is to foster a calm and tranquil mind, focused on the
precise execution of these exercises. Learning to do them correctly provides a
practical avenue for learning about such things as balance, alignment, fine-scale
motor control, rhythm of movement, the genesis of movement from the body's
vital center, and so on. Thus the practice of Tai Chi can in some measure
contribute to being able to better stand, walk, move, run, etc. in other spheres of
life as well. Many practitioners notice benefits in terms of correcting poor
postural, alignment or movement patterns which can contribute to tension or
injury. Furthermore the meditative nature of the exercises is calming and relaxing
in and of itself.

LPOYC – March 2015
The days are longer, though still rather chilly.
Hopefully we’ll have these breezes when the
racing season begins. I have seen a couple of
sailboats out on the lake and one of them had its
sails up. Otherwise there’s not much news in
the club these days. There will be a general
members meeting this month to finalize the activities for this year and go over rules changes.
There will also be discussion concerning possible changes in the clubs bylaws.

Get your leprechaun on!!
Wear your GREEN & bring
your best Irish dish to share.
We look forward to enjoying the

I’m sure that folks with boats are getting anxious to get their boats in the
water and do some sailing. The water level is still low and the temperature
still too cold for most folks. The racing season starts on the 26th of April so
there’s plenty of time yet to do Spring chores done around home. Until next
month…

The Swearing Parrot
So there's this Pirate with a parrot. And this parrot swears like a sailor, I mean he's a pistol. He can swear for
five minutes straight without repeating himself. Trouble is, the pirate who owns him is a quiet, conservative
type, and this bird's foul mouth is driving him crazy.
One day, it gets to be too much, so the guy grabs the bird by the throat, shakes him really hard, and yells,
"QUIT IT!"
But this just makes the bird mad and he swears more than ever. Then he gets mad and says, "I've had
enough of you." and locks the bird in a cabinet.
This really aggravates the bird and he claws and scratches, and when the guy finally lets him out, the bird
cuts loose with a stream of invective that would make a veteran pirate blush. At that point, he is so mad that he
throws the Parrot into the freezer.
For the first few seconds there is a terrible ruckus. The bird kicks and claws and squawks to no avail. Then
it suddenly gets very quiet. At First the guy just waits, but then he starts to think that the bird may be hurt.
After a couple of minutes of silence, he's so worried that he opens up the freezer door.
The bird calmly climbs onto the man's out-stretched arm and says, "Awfully sorry about the trouble I
gave you. I'll do my best to improve my vocabulary from now on. By the way, what did the chicken do?"

Directions:
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Beat the cream cheese with 1 cup of sugar and the vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.
Unroll the cans of crescent roll dough, and use a rolling pin to shape each piece into 9x13 inch rectangles.
Press one piece into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture into
the baking dish, then cover with the remaining piece of crescent dough. Stir together 3/4 cup of sugar,
cinnamon, and butter. Dot the mixture over the top of the cheesecake.
Bake in the preheated oven until the crescent dough has puffed and turned golden brown, about 30
minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with honey. Cool completely in the pan before cutting into 12
squares.

Look Up – Keep a Happy Heart
Marsha Ritzheimer
Quite by accident I found a quote by Nathaniel Hawthorne. It said
“Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make
it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is
never attained. Follow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we
have caught happiness without dreaming of it.”
There is so much truth to this statement. Have you noticed that when we try
to pursue happiness, it always seems to be just out of our reach? How can some of
us be so happy and others so miserable?
For me happiness is only attained when I take the time to appreciate little
things and concentrate on making others happy. Giving a smile, a kind word or a
helping hand to others, whether strangers, acquaintances or friends, are just some of
the little things that bring true happiness to me.
When I feel happy, I call it having a Happy Heart. It feels as though I am
glowing from the inside out. I want others to experience that same feeling. Happiness is really contagious and good for the body, mind and spirit.
There are so many events in life that can give a Happy Heart. Sometimes it
is the smallest things that bring so much pleasure; the smell of a favorite flower, the
sound of a musical bird, a glorious sunrise or sunset or the sound of a familiar voice.
However, being able to witness a room full of laughing, happy people can give the
happiest of hearts.
If you were attending the Valentine’s Day Sock Hop, you know exactly
what I mean. It didn’t matter if you were one of the dancers or one who preferred to
sit and visit with friends and neighbors. Everyone was having a grand time. We
definitely had a room full of laughter and happiness. Now we are looking forward
to the next dance event. Line dancing anyone?
