Improve Your Strength and Balance

Wednesdays, 10:30 a.m.-11:00 a.m., Room 100 West
You are invited to join an “easy” exercise class in a comfortable group setting. The goal: spend 30 minutes on exercises that will stretch and strengthen in an attempt to improve our flexibility and balance. No special clothes or shoes needed for these exercises. There is no fee or registration. Led by Debbie Moss. This class has been scheduled for your convenience on the same days as Mid-Week, which will follow in Social Hall.
