Officials probe actions of guard members
SUMMER SWELTER
By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor
Military officials are investigating a report that some members of the Alabama National Guard 214th Military Police who were staying at a local hotel last weekend while in Alexander City for drills, may have engaged in lewd behavior including public nudity. Reports indicate that local authorities were alerted to guardsmen skinny-dipping in a hotel pool at 3 a.m. Saturday as well as having inappropriate contact with females in common areas of the hotel. Military officials also visited the hotel and among other action, viewed security video of the incident as a part of an investigation. While military officials declined to confirm or deny any specifics of what may have happened involving any members of the unit, they did confirm that there is an investigation. “At this time I can confirm that a few members of the Alabama National Guard 214th Military Police company See GUARD, Page 3

A day after a Tallapoosa County Board of Education employee was arrested on allegations he had sex with a student, school system officials have set a Thursday meeting to determine the next course of action. Jerel Tremaine Crayton, 36, of Jacksons Gap was arrested and charged with one count of “school employee engaging in a sex act or deviant sexual intercourse with a student under the age of 19” and one count of “a school employee having sexual contact with a student under the age of 19.” In a released statement, the board and Superintendent Joe Windle said they are working to take appropriate action as a result of the arrest. A special called meeting has been set for 9 a.m. Thursday to deal with the matter. “No specific facts have been released by law enforcement with respect to the allegations of the arrest,” the release says. “Under Alabama law, the board of education may place the employee on administrative leave pending See SEX, Page 3
Device, teamwork help officials locate missing Alzheimer’s patient By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor
Quick response by local officials and a tiny transmitter that is part of an initiative to help locate those with medical and mental conditions who may be missing helped locate an Alexander City man in just minutes. The Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Office, the New Site Police Department and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency’s Aviation Unit all responded to a call at 1:30 p.m. on Elkahatchee Road reporting that a 65-yearold man who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease was missing. The man’s wife and caregiver stated he had been
missing for 20 minutes. The man was wearing a bracelet supplied by Project Lifesaver and, when the transmitter was activated, the man was located less than 10 minutes later. New Site Police and the Sheriff’s Department have been involved in the program for about four years. “It’s an amazing concept and it is one that works well,” Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett said. “This man was found quickly and we had a similar incident last week in Dadeville where a 75-year-old man was missing and located relatively quickly because of the device. There is a cost associated with it, but the results speak
for themselves.” New Site Public Safety Director John McKelvey said he and Officer Philip Weddle just happened to be in the area when the call went out. His unit was armed with a tracking device. He said it led him directly to the man. “We were in Alexander City on another matter and we got there as quickly as possible,” McKelvey said. “The signal is extremely accurate and easy to track and led us right to the area where he was.” According to information supplied by Project Lifesaver, if an enrolled client goes missing, the caregiver notifies their local See MISSING, Page 3

DEAR ABBY: Do you have any information or advice on how to talk to my 12-year-old stepdaughter about sex? I have a pretty good idea about where to take the conversation. I don’t plan to make it a big deal -- not so serious as to scare her, but not too lighthearted either. You never know what kids are saying about it in school these days. I want her to know the door is always open should she need to talk. (My mother did that with me, which I appreciated.) If you have any pointers or reading material suited for her age, that would be great. -- STEPMOM IN TEXAS DEAR STEPMOM: I’m glad you are opening up the subject because “the talk” with your stepdaughter should have started long ago as part of an ongoing discussion. For a variety of reasons, young people today mature much earlier than they did years ago. She should be told that, if they haven’t already started, the changes that will take place

DEAR ABBY: I am a 25-year-old, well-educated woman, engaged to a wonderful man. Although we don’t plan to wed for another couple of years, I have a question on my mind. Neither of us is traditional or religious. What should I do about my name? My fiance would be honored if I took his name, but wouldn’t be insulted or hurt if I didn’t. For a long time I had thought that hyphenating would be an appropriate solution, but the more I consider it, a long double name on everything I will have to sign might become an inconvenience. I don’t dislike his last name or have strong feelings against taking it, but I like the name I have now. Part of me likes the idea of always carrying it. Since children are not going to be part of the equation,
there’s no risk of confusing them or their teachers. What do other young couples do? I would love an outside perspective. -NAME GAME IN KANSAS DEAR NAME GAME: It is no longer unusual for women to retain their maiden names after marriage. Many choose to do it because they have become established/successful in their careers, others because they want to maintain their identity as an individual. Some women solve the problem by using their husband’s name legally and retaining their maiden name professionally. Others use their maiden name as a middle name and their husband’s last name. Please don’t worry about this; you have time to make your final decision. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Project Lifesaver agency, and a trained emergency team responds to the wanderer’s area. Most who wander are found within a few miles from home and search times have been reduced from hours and days to minutes, Project Lifesaver claims. Stats show that, on average, recovery times for those using Project Lifesaver is about 30 minutes. Secretary of Law Enforcement Spencer Collier praised the team effort and response in finding the man.
“Partnering on this search, the multi-agency team located the man within 10 minutes and brought him home safely,” Collier said in a released statement. “Not only did our aviation unit assist with this search, but members of the unit also provided certification training for the other two agencies involved. Teaming up with law enforcement agencies across the state increases our chances of finding these lost individuals before it is too late.”

when the air temperature warms to near 100 degrees this weekend. “Unfortunately, it’s going to get worse before it gets better.” Goggins urged that everyone take the proper precautions for safety during periods of excessive heat. “Even if you’re not in an heatadvisory area – like you guys today, I think you’re looking at a 103 heat index and the heat-advisory criteria is 105 – a couple of degrees really doesn’t make that much difference,” Goggins said. “We still recommend that you take the proper precautions. If you’re working outside, you need to take frequent breaks, wear ventilated clothing and drink plenty of fluids.” The heat index combines air temperature and relative humidity in an attempt to determine the humanperceived equivalent temperature – how hot it feels. It was developed by a Florida television meteorologist in 1978 and adopted by the NWS a year later. Dr. Michelle Goldhagen, who specializes in emergency medicine at Russell Medical Center, says though she hasn’t seen cases of heat stroke or heat exhaustion in the past several days, the heat has taken its toll in other ways.

“I haven’t seen anything serious, but, of course, I haven’t been here all the time,” Goldhagen said. “But I have seen some cases of mild dehydration and I’m seeing more cases of kidney stones and other problems that can be associated with and made worse by dehydration.” Goldhagen said she contributes the lack of more serious health problems related to the heat to education of the community on how to safely cope.
“I think we’re doing a better job of educating the community of the steps to take to stay safe in periods of extreme heat and people are beginning to adjust their lifestyles,” Goldhagen said. “They’re cutting grass and doing other yard work either late in the day or early in the morning and drinking plenty of fluids, particularly before they go outside in the heat. “Of course the young and elderly are more susceptible to the heat than

Treadwell said that the school system was notified about the potential of inappropriate action near the end of the school year and that officials immediately notified the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department and the investigation was initiated, Treadwell said. “Because of the timing and because it was under investigation, a suspension or a placement on administrative leave would have been premature,” Treadwell said. “The school year was essentially over, so there was no status change. But now that an arrest has been made and the board has been made aware of the findings, the called meeting will offer an opportunity for the board to take appropriate action regarding this employee.” Windle said that Crayton was a non-certi-

was discovered when a parent viewed a communication said to be from Crayton and intended for the student. Because of the nature of the communication, the parent reported it immediately to school officials. The two charges are part of new state laws that deal with inappropriate conduct by school employees. Statute 13A-6-81, which reads “School employee engaging in a sex act or deviant sexual intercourse with a student under the age of 19 years” is a Class B felony. The code gives a graphic legal definition of “deviant sexual intercourse,” but it was inappropriate for publication here. Statute 13A-6-82, school employee having sexual contact with a student under the age of 19 years, says that “sexual contact means any touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a student, done for the purpose of gratifying the sexual desire of either party. The term includes soliciting or harassing a student to per-
form a sex act.” The crime is a Class A misdemeanor. According to court records, the case has been assigned to Judge Kim Taylor and a first court call is listed as Sept. 10 at 9 a.m. No attorney has filed an appearance notification with the court.

Alexander City Middle School hosts area teams for 7-on-7 camp By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
It’s never too early to get a jump on the upcoming season, as Alexander City Middle School’s football team joined many others in polishing their skills heading into 2015. For the first time in a few years, the ACMS Wildcats played host to Prattville, Auburn and Opelika middle schools for a 7-on-7 camp Tuesday afternoon at the Charles E. Bailey Sportplex softball fields. ACMS football coach Bill Lutz said Tuesday was the first time in a while that ACMS has played host to a 7-on-7 event. “We hosted one three years ago over at Hamp Lyon, but this is the first one we’ve hosted at the Sportplex,” Lutz said. “It’s a pretty good little setup here. We’ve got three fields with games going, restrooms and concessions. It kind of showcases our community, too.” Lutz said Tuesday’s event also gave the Wildcats a rare opportunity to work on their passing game. “This gives our kids a chance to polish
their passing game skills, which you usually don’t see a lot of at the seventh and eighth grade level,” Lutz said. “This gives our program a chance to work on the passing game at an early age. It also gives the kids a chance to see what other teams have in the neighboring communities along with helping work on the passing game.” During 7-on-7 competition, players get a chance to work on adjusting to different coverages, as well as work on offensive plays. Lutz said it has the added benefit of solidifying those fundamentals in players as they prepare to move on to the high school level. “For the seventh and eighth grade guys, it gives them a taste of what they will do in high school, and as you can see it’s not just backyard football,” Lutz said. “Everything is executed, they work on pass coverages, multiple passing formations, defensive adjustments and your quarterbacks are working on their fundaRobert Hudson / The Outlook mental reads.

CACC reinstates women’s tennis program By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
Central Alabama Community College has announced its return to the tennis court. CACC announced the return of its women’s tennis program this fall, with Benjamin Russell High School boys tennis Coach Wesley Coleman, a CACC alum who played tennis at CACC in 2000-2001, tapped to lead the program. CACC interim president Dr. Susan Burrow announced this week in a press release that evaluation and planning began months ago to institute an additional women’s sport on campus. The College received NJCAA approval to begin Women’s Tennis during the fall 2015 term. “We are excited to offer student athletes a venue to fulfill their career and educational goals while participating in a sport they love,” Burrow said in the release. “Women’s tennis was a natural choice for CACC, given the community’s interest in tennis and excellent secondary tennis programs from which to recruit student athletes.” Coleman said he is excited to return to the school that had such a big impact on him as a student and athlete. “I’m thrilled about the opportunity to come back here and lead the women’s tennis program,” Coleman said. “I can’t say enough about CACC and the opportunities I was provided as a student athlete. It was a major stepping stone in my tennis career and I’m excited about being able to give the same opportunities to other student athletes.” Coleman comes to CACC from Benjamin Russell High School, where he has serves as the men’s tennis coach and previously served as a Wildcat varsity football assistant coach. He will remain at Benjamin

Russell as a full-time teacher. “I’m still going to be working and teaching at the high school, and I’m going to be coming over in the afternoons to run practices, and we’ll have all of our matches on the afternoons and on weekends,” Coleman said. “We’ll start tennis practice a week after CACC starts their classes. I saw most of the girls yesterday at early registration for incoming freshmen. We’ll do conditioning that first week and on-court practice that second week of school.” CACC initiated women’s tennis in 1995 and suspended the program in 2012. The program won conference championships in 2005, 2006, and 2007 and had runner-up finishes in 1996, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2008, and 2010. Coleman said he’s already been building
up the roster and that the program will have two tournaments in the fall and some headto-head matches before starting the season proper in the spring. “I’ve been working on that since the end of spring,” Coleman said. “I kind of got started on it late, but I was able to sign five scholarship players, and I’ve for sure got a walk-on and will probably have another player join the team as a walk-on as well.” Coleman added he’s thankful for the opportunity to guide the new tennis program into the future. “I really want to thank Dr. Burrow for this opportunity and I also want to thank Dr. Cooper and Dr. Wilkinson for supporting me,” Coleman said. “ Without their support and encouragement none of this would be possible.”
hey say Memorial Day is the unofficial beginning of summer. The temperature is usually percolating around 80 by late May and kids everywhere have typically been paroled from their scholastic prisons. Technically, summer doesn’t begin until late June, but somewhere along the line human beings (or least Americans) decided to get a head start on having fun. If it looks like summer, smells like summer and feels like summer, we might as well start acting like it’s summer whether it’s official or not. SEC Media Days has come to be known as the unofficial beginning of the college football season. Every sports broadcaster, writer and their brother has descended upon Hoover, Alabama this week to take part in the mayhem. Predictions will be made and all 14 teams will be put under the microscope. It can be a lot of fun and it can also make for a very long day. There are always a number of memorable quotes and even a controversy or two. This week has taken on a life of its own and it’s merely the beginning. SEC Media Days began in 1985 in Birmingham. There were only 10 SEC schools back then and the coverage was minimal at best. It took place at the very end of July right before fall practice was to begin. As the years have gone by and this event has morphed into what it is today, the start date has gotten earlier and earlier. 2015 matches last year as the earliest start date yet. Obviously, July is a pretty slow month in the world of sports, so why not start the avalanche of college football talk a little earlier? As they say in the Guinness commercials… Brilliant! Have you ever heard that old saying about too much of something being a bad thing? It’s funny. Practically everything in life tends to adhere to that idea. In business, the next big thing comes along and eventually the market is flooded with said product. Demand goes down and supply goes up and the company goes out of business. Personally, I love that dessert with the chocolate pudding and whipped cream in layers, but after eating a barrel of it I often long for death. I think one reason baseball interest has declined over the years is because the market has been saturated. There used to be only a couple of games on every week. Now, there are ten games on every day. Too much of something is usually always a bad thing. However, one of the few exceptions to the rule is apparently college football. If the trend continues, SEC Media Days will eventually find its way to late June and all I can say is the sooner the better. When I was growing up, Auburn might have been on television twice a year. Now, every game of every team in the SEC is televised every week. Too much? Not even close. I usually have two games going on my TV (picture in picture) and one going on my computer. Now, admittedly I have issues, but I’m one of many. There are scheduled to be 41 bowl games this season and I’ll watch parts of every single one of them. Officially, the first game isn’t until Sept. 3, but unofficially and as far as I’m concerned the 2015 college football season is now underway. Graham is a sports columnist for The Outlook.

appy birthday to Betty Carol Graham this past Monday. She celebrated with Joel Graham, her husband, and Jeffery, Amanda, Joshua and Jackson Graham of Alexander City. Betty Graham, you are such a deserving young lady whom everyone loves. Happy anniversary wishes this past Sunday to Bennie Lee and Sonja Yates of Daviston. Everyone loves you, also. Sympathy and prayers go to the family of the late Judy Tidwell of Alexander City who is now with Jesus. She was a great to know. Smile and know the Lord is “special.” God is so good! Jimmy Harry fell and broke two fingers. Doris, take care of him. Linda Chambers appreciates everyone’s acts of kindness bestowed upon her. Smile, Linda, and know people pray for you daily. You have such sweet patience. Horseshoe Bend School had one of the best principals in America, but he has accepted a job in the Central Office for Tallapoosa County Schools in Dadeville. Mr. Davis, prayers and best wishes to your family and you always. God is so good, isn’t He? Never forget the Horseshoe Bend School area because we won’t forget you. May God bless you always!

She is a deserving young lady who should do well. Good luck! Joyce Perry looks so well now. Keep this wonderful lady in your prayers. Len East of Daviston and Savannah, Georgia, where he is stationed, plans to get out of the service after five years, go to Cornell University and enjoy his girlfriend from New York. Len’s girlfriend has a sister who’ll be attending the University of Alabama this fall. Len East and his girlfriend have been spending time in Daviston with his mother, Ginger East and his sister, Lydia, of Auburn. Good luck to this fine young man and his family.

cious to eat. You have a special invitation to be present. The time is wholesome for everyone to enjoy. Keep Lavan Oliver and his wife, Ladean, in your prayers. Everyone who knows Dr. James Kimbrough of Troy knows what a great person in education and life is. Troy State University and the city are fortunate to have this caliber of young man who enjoys helping everyone. Precious Carli Vickers, who attends college in Troy, met him the other day. She wanted me to know that James Kimbrough shall never forget me. I taught him in the ninth grade and he was “ideal” Christian student. To everyone in this area, I send prayers and love to you and your family. School is around the corner . Relax, be careful and enjoy yourselves, but know God is still in control. Bro.

n Friday, July 12th, Equality’s EPAC was entertained by Nashville Songwriters’ Association International singer/ songwriter, Roger Vines. He performed for the group with a twinkle in his eye and country in his heart. He was followed by the dynamic family duo, Ron and Kelley Whisnand, who lit up the stage with their special blend of gospel, contemporary and patriotic songs. Their son, bassist Ronnie Whisnand then fired up a set of hot tunes on his own. Happy birthday to Luis Sanchez, owner of the Cozumel Mexican Grill in Eclectic, as he turns 36 tomorrow. Wish him a Happy day if you see him. He is proud to be an American citizen, he and his wife have, Jasmin. It seems our president had nothing to say when the illegal Mexican (deported 5 times) shot and killed Katherine Stienle (32) walking with her father in California last week. He didn’t even call the family. This makes the everyday person feel less safe and wonder why only some murders matter these days.

My Mother’s last letter and my phone call to Cousin Elisa both confirmed that Britain had extremely high temperatures last week, up into the high 90s. As you know, most homes do not have air conditioning or even ceiling fans, so it gets very sticky and exhausting. Usually, it is just reaching the low 70s in July for the Greater London area, with breezes to keep you comfortable. So many get offended so easily these days. I disagree on politically correctness, because it causes folks to tell lies. One can be honest in all deeds in a kind way. I wonder what will be

good many of you let me know that you agreed with my column last week when I suggested that stealing from the Special Education Trust Fund budget to resolve the dilemma in the General Fund is not the solution needed during the looming extraordinary special session. This potential raid on the school children’s and teachers’ money is not the first time that this idea has been suggested. Every time a crisis comes up in the General Fund some governor will try to raid the Education Trust Fund. The most powerful governor in state history tried to do it and now, 50 years later, Gov. Robert Bentley is testing the water. Believe me, if George Wallace could not succeed at it in his prime when he owned the legislature, Bentley sure cannot do it today. One of the most legendary battles in state legislative history was between George Wallace and Paul Hubbert. It was over raiding the Education Trust Fund Budget. It was 1971 and Hubbert took on the Goliath of Alabama politics, Wallace, and beat him. It was a remarkable David versus Goliath victory that propelled Hubbert to stardom in Alabama politics. Hubbert became the King of Goat Hill after that monumental conquest. Hubbert had become the head of the Alabama Education Association in 1969. The AEA was a toothless social organization run by the school superintendents. Hubbert took over the reins of AEA when he was only 33 years old. Even though at the time AEA had no financial resources, Hubbert convinced his teachers to openly endorse Albert Brewer over George Wallace in the legendary 1970 Governor’s race. Brewer led Wallace in the first primary but Wallace pulled out all the stops and ran the most overt racist ads ever used in American political history and overcame Brewer in the runoff. Wallace became governor again in January of 1970. Wallace believed in repaying his enemies. It was early 1971 and Hubbert had just hired former State Senator Joe Goodwyn to help him politically. Wallace called Goodwyn and Hubbert out to the Governor’s Mansion. He asked Hubbert, “Don’t y’all have about $300 million over in the Teacher’s Retirement System?” Hubbert said, “Yes, Governor, that’s about right.” “Well, you know,” Wallace continued, “federal judge Frank Johnson has ordered us to update our mental health facilities and it is going to cost $35 million, what do you think about us borrowing some of your money to pay for this problem?”

Hubbert said, “I don’t mind lending the state the money as long as we get the same return.” Wallace had dropped a hint. Goodwyn told Hubbert after the meeting, “I don’t think you’ve heard the last of that.” Sure enough, a month later Wallace called Hubbert to a meeting in the Governor’s office. Hubbert’s entry into the Governor’s office was like a gladiator going into a lion’s den. Wallace had the entire House Ways and Means and Senate Finance and Taxation Committees awaiting Hubbert. Wallace danced up and down the room extolling the need to use the education dollars to support mental health. After the tirade, a bold 35-year-old Hubbert looked Wallace squarely in the eyes and told him, “Over my dead body.” Hubbert rallied the state teachers like they have never been rallied before. Wallace continued with his plan when the legislature convened in May. Hubbert bolstered his troops. There were 400 to 600 teachers a day descending on the legislature. Wallace dug in deeper. Hubbert nor his throng of educators backed off. Instead, there were close to a thousand a day coming to Goat Hill. The legendary Representative Pete Mathews, who was the Wallace floor leader and Ways and Means Chairman, said, “I’ve been in the legislature a long time and have dealt with every kind of pressure group but I have never seen anything like when the teachers found out someone was going to fool around with their retirement funds.” When the vote was finally taken, the teachers and Hubbert beat George Wallace in his prime by a vote of 92-9. Wallace called Mathews frantically and said, “Move to reconsider.” Mathews retorted to Wallace, “Reconsider hell, we done lost five of our nine.” That was the day Paul Hubbert earned his spurs.

Horoscope
JACQUELINE BIGARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S STARS ARIES (March 21-April 19) --You might be overwhelmed by everything you see as you encounter power play after power play. Whether to get involved in one of these control games will be your decision. What you do could surprise others. Tonight: A new beginning is possible once you rid yourself of frustration. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) --You will try to explain where you are coming from, but someone else might decide to throw his or her issues into the mix as well. This person seems to want the spotlight on him or her right now. Try not to get involved in a power play. Tonight: Catch up on a palâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wild day. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) --You have a lot to say, and you want others to hear what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying on an authentic level. A loved one could become very controlling over a Âżnancial issue. Step back and let this situation play out. You might opt for a new beginning. Tonight: Curb a tendency to be rebellious. CANCER (June 21-July 22) --Others listen to what you have to say. You are open-minded and full of ideas. A partner could be very demanding, angry and sometimes even controlling. You are likely to get into a tiff with this person. Tonight: Avoid a difÂżcult situation, and you will be much happier. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) --You might want to get away from the wild interactions happening around you. Your temper could Ă&#x20AC;are up suddenly and catch you and others off guard. Sort through any angry feelings that keep bubbling up, and process them before sharing. Tonight: Get some distance from others. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --Emphasize what is going on with a group of friends. Maintain a caring position, especially with a dear friend. A power play is likely to occur around a loved one. Know that you cannot interfere or protect this person, despite your desire
to help. Tonight: Join your friends. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) --Understand what is happening with a family member. You might experience some pressure from someone who is in charge. Your responsibilities demand attention, and there is no way around it. Expect a tantrum from a loved one. Tonight: Home is where the heart is. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) --Your beliefs could trigger quite a response. You might need to use other words to communicate what you are feeling. Express your thoughts in a meaningful way. A friend could shock you with his or her actions. Tonight: The fun begins when you decide it does. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) --One-on-one relating will help make your path easier throughout the day. You might have difÂżculty believing that, though, as you feel someone has his or her eye on a situation thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s near and dear to you. You would be well-advised to back off. Tonight: Use self-discipline. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) --You might feel unusually ornery, and could unintentionally take it out on others. A little restraint would make your life substantially easier during the next few days. A loved one will want to have a new beginning or say goodbye to a problem. Tonight: Be cool. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) --You might want to stay home or dive right into work. The objective remains the same: Avoid the myriad personalities in your life who could be reacting to the New Moon. High energy and uproar will surround you on some level. Tonight: Get away from the raving crowds. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) --You might enjoy some of the ups and downs of your day. Tap into your ingenuity when something falls apart or when a friend seems to change his or her attitude toward you. Keep an open mind, and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take comments so seriously. Tonight: Be with your favorite person.. No risks! Tonight: Join your friends.) --Set aside some personal time for

ACPR 50+ monthly luncheon this Wednesday
T
he Alexander City Parks & Recreation 50+ Aquatic Exercise classes survived their themed week of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Strengthâ&#x20AC;? using exercise tubes and bands. This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme is entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best Week Everâ&#x20AC;? and it might just have something to do with the after-workout massages! Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give you the details in next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s article. Event Updates: Monthly Luncheon is set for this Wednesday from 11 a.m.-noon with guest speakers from Care South, a home healthcare service. Helping hands would be much appreciated since Corley Holt will be teaching the Noon Aquatic Exercise class that day. Bring a salad, fruit or dessert to share with others. Ladies PJ Party meets at the Activity Center this Thursday, July 16, from 6:30 a.m.-9 a.m. Bring cookies to swap. Be prepared to laugh and enjoy yourself! The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Living Well Alabamaâ&#x20AC;? program starts next Tuesday, July 21, from 11 a.m.12:30 p.m. at the Activity Center. Bring your lunch with you
CORLEY HOLT AND LUCILLE THOMPSON Senior Moments
and learn information that assists you to selfmanage and cope with symptoms associated with chronic diseases. The program will last for 6 weeks on every Tuesday and prizes are given to those that attend. A grand prize will be drawn for at the end of the 6 weeks. If you are caring for someone with a chronic disease, it is a wonderful way to learn how to for free! Remember that the 3rd Annual Sun Festival starts on July 18 and continues through July 25. Stop by the Chamber of Commerce to learn more and volunteer if interested. ACPR 50+ sends out condolences to Lucille Thompson and her family for their recent loss. Until next time, keep a smile on your face and love in your heart.
