It’s Experiment Time! What happens to a bar of Ivory soap when you put it in the microwave? Ivory soap . . . it’s the soap that floats. But why? discover the secret behind this floating sensation by cooking the whole bar of soap in the microwave. That’s right, a bar of Ivory soap + the microwave oven = a very cool trick! And your kitchen will smell so fresh and clean when you’re finished! 1. Unwrap a fresh bar of ivory soap. 2. Place it on a paper plate (microwave safe) and then place it in the microwave 3. Set the cook time to 60 seconds. As the time is going, be sure to watch through the microwave window as the soap begins to grow. The reason the soap expands is because of the air pockets in the soap. 4. Remove the plate of soap from the microwave and have some fun with your soap soufflé! Please remember that the soap does crumble so be ready for a “little” mess to come with all of this fun!
Stay Fit with Fitness Blender! The Fitness Center may be closed for the time being, but that doesn’t mean you can’t start a new fitness routine! Go outside and walk, jog, ride a bike, and play golf and tennis. If you like to do your fitness routine inside, try “Fitness Blender”! This website contains free fitness workouts and allows you to “blend” or sort out your workouts by duration, easy/challenging, type, equipment and more.

Just for Fun “Midge” was a social media smash last week with her UNC swag! So we thought you might want to have some fun and dress up your pet in a costume and submit a photo for a chance to win dinner for two in the Sunset Room (once we open back up, of course). You can even dress up with your pet and send in a photo! Email your entry to yourclub@greensborocc.org. Be sure to include your name, your pet’s name and why you chose the costume for them. Entries will be placed on the Greensboro Country Club’s Facebook and Instagram pages for Members to vote. The photo of the pet with the most votes will be the winner of a gift certificate for dinner for two in the Sunset Room! Contest will run Tuesday, April 14th through Monday, April 20th. Winner will be announced in our weekly publication on Tuesday, April 21st.
Good luck and let’s see some fabulous pets!
