Hello to All Green Apples
Are you one of the little groups who like to get together and have a coffee after your Green Apple visit?
I know the AHOY venue over the road from Green Apple provides a wonderful meeting place for all of you to go if you are here in the morning between 5.30am and 12 noon.
AHOY closes at 12 noon so if you are one of our afternoon Green Apple members you may be looking for somewhere just as close. The Bonny View hotel just up the road provides coffee between 12 noon and 5 pm so this becomes a possible alternative to other coffee venues further away.
My sister Hilary who lives in Germany, and whom many of you met during her periodic visits to this side of the world, said to me that “the Bonny View has really good coffee and service”. Since Hilary just loves her coffee and, while she was in Australia, she would buy up to 3 cups of coffee daily at various places. Hilary tells me Australian coffee is so much better than coffee she can purchase in Munich. So, if you attend Green Apple for a Wellness group session in the afternoon or come in to do a solo workout in the afternoon you might like to wander up to the hotel on the hill and see what you think.
Last week we conducted the Wellness Assessments, something we do at various times through the year. These assessments enable you to see how you are performing on a physical level and this is so important in relation to independent living and our ability to do the “activities of daily living” as we age.
Our Wellness Assessments are followed by a cuppa and wonderful snacks created by our Green Apple Hostess, Shirley McGregor.
Ben and Kristen looked after the Steady Steps group and Emma and Katrina looked after the Lungs in Action and Lift for Life group.
I hear that you all went well, and the social side of the activity was warm and connected.
I believe that our social interaction here at Green Apple is such a critical part of what we are doing here.
At the end of the day, people-connections rule! Happy connections/ Happier life!
Cheers
