The Fitness Swim Club provides a vehicle for swimmers to participate in a group swim workout. We generally go 2,400 to 3,000 yards per workout, mostly freestyle. Some do more, a few do less. Workouts are suitable for master swimmers, triathletes and those who would just like to participate in swim workouts. Please ensure you have medical clearance to participate in vigorous physical activity prior to joining. We welcome new members.
Pilates Mary Ayers 520-638-7916 scov.pilates@gmail.com Mon., 3 PM, Thu., 1:30 PM, AFC/Studio
Are you a golfer? Twisting on drives, squatting and leaning over picking up balls? Golf movements are required and repeated. The results can be overused weak muscles and imbalances affecting legs, hips, arms, shoulders and back. Over 60? Your game is probably affected with shorter, less accurate drives. Stamina decreases and muscle strains, pulls and tears happen. For years, elite golfers such as Tiger Woods have turned to Pilates, an essential training tool to stay balanced and improve performance. Like golf shots, Pilates is based on movement from the body’s center or core (trunk, shoulders, abdomen, pelvis). As you strengthen your core, hip rotation improves your range of motion and back stability. Other results? Powerful, more accurate golf shots and a symmetrically muscled, flexible, strong body. Pilates is a full body exercise with very little joint strain. To attend, call Mary, or just come by and watch a class.

You will either play in your residence or your opponent’s home, thus only one table of four people per residence. There is a one-time entry/prize fee of $15 pp, with no monthly game fees.

The Mixed Social Bridge Club has fully resumed. We play contract bridge in an informal, relaxed and fun environment. We want everyone who comes to sit at a table and play bridge. So, if needed, we will make a table of three or have a player float from table to table. We start promptly at 8:30 AM, come a few minutes early to socialize and partner up. We have coffee and members often bring goodies to go with it. We also have online games using Trickstercards.com. Please join us. We welcome new players.
