April Special Edition
Ă€ LA CARTE DINING
Dear Members, Over the past several weeks we have learned what it means to self-isolate, the importance of social distancing, and how many people are being affected in our community by schools closing, businesses adjusting, and healthcare stress on the front lines. Many of our members have expressed their desire to help alleviate some of this stress for healthcare workers in their community, and have requested that we offer items they can purchase to assist their local hospital’s nurses, doctors, and staff during this taxing time. It is during these times of uncertainty that we truly witness the resilience and willingness of the human spirit. One of the ways that we will get through this trying time is uplifting each other with acts of generosity large and small. We are so grateful for each and every one of you!
M. Kent Johnson, CCM General Manager/COO Placing Orders: Orders must be placed by 1:00pm on Monday for a Wednesday pickup or 1:00pm on Thursday for a Saturday pickup Pickup Only: Pickup will be available at the Five Farms Golf Circle from 10:00am-4:00pm on Wednesday and Saturday

As the Director of Fitness and Wellness at BCC, I know how important it is to stick to your fitness routine. Please join us for the following 30-minute classes with the schedule provided to keep you moving, balanced, strong, flexible, and ease your stress. Now more than ever, we need to take care of ourselves!

RACQUETS RACQUETS
It’s time to get creative with the way your junior(s) develop or continue to develop their hand-eye or more specifically, their racquet-eye coordination! During a child’s developmental years (ages 2-8), it is vital to start having them hold, control, and use their tennis racquets. Under the current set of circumstances we all find ourselves in, this idea is becoming increasingly more difficult every day; however, below are four great progressions to work on racquet-eye coordination from inside your home.
