Page 2 - Senior's Lifestyle Publication Supplement To Shelby Shopper & Info Classes To Start In September The Senior Center is proud to announce new classes which will begin in September 2010. These classes will be held at the Neal Senior Center, located at 100 TR Harris Drive, Shelby, NC 28150. DANCE Beginning Ballroom: On Tuesday, September 7, 2010 the Neal Senior Center at 100 TR Harris Drive, in Shelby will offer bi-weekly (Tuesdays and Thursdays) Beginning Ballroom Dance classes. The classes will be taught by Mr. Tom Milo of Rutherfordton. Mr. Milo has been dancing since the age of 5. He has competed in national ballroom competi- tions and has a diploma in the five major dances in international style dance and has taught dance on 35 cruises over the last ten years. The Senior Center’s Beginning Ballroom Class will feature the Waltz, Cha Cha and Fox Trot. The one hour classes will begin at 2:30 pm each Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. Cost for the classes (twice a week) will be $32-$40 per person, per month (based on the number of Tuesdays and Thursdays in the month). Payment for classes is payable in full at the first class of each month. Dance students should bring a pair of soft to medium soled comfortable shoes to wear during class. Street shoes and/or sneakers are not allowed on the dance floor. For more information on the Beginning Ballroom classes or to pre-register, please call 704-482-3488. Zumba Silver and Zumba Lite: 2 new Zumba classes will be offered at the Senior Center beginning in September (see schedule below). The classes will be taught by certified, licensed instructor, Antoinette Heberlig. The cost for each class is $2 per person, payable to the instructor. Both classes are extremely beginner-friendly. The Zumba program is a Latin inspired dance-fitness class that uses Latin and interna- tional music and dance movements for a fantastic cardio workout with a little toning thrown in. People of all ages and fitness levels can successfully engage in and benefit from this exer- cise/dance class. No previous dance experience is required. The dance movements for both Zumba classes are fun and easy to follow. The classes will feature “Zumba style” versions of the meringue, tango, flamenco, belly dance, Greek and bhangra dances, just to name a few. Students go with the flow as well as enjoy the music and the party-like atmosphere. Zumba Silver will meet twice a week on Wednesday mornings from 11:00 am-12:00pm, and Friday mornings from 11:30 am – 12:30 pm beginning September 15 and September 17, 2010. These classes are available for adults age 55 and above. For students, 18 and above, we will offer Zumba Lite for persons who aren’t quite ready for the all out Zumba class. These classes will meet on Monday evenings from 5:30-6:30, beginning September 20, 2010. Zumba students should bring a towel and water as well as wear loose comfortable cloth- ing and good supportive shoes to each class.

Continuous cuts over the years from federal funding sources make contributions more important than ever before.

Planned gifts are a meaningful way to show your interest and concern for the grow- ing population of older adults in this community. A planned gift is one decided by you while you are alive to benefit the living after the death of the donor. The gift lives on, an enduring expression of love for our fel- lowman. Senior Center Donations Demonstrating your love and support may be done in several ways: •In the form of a Bequest: I give, devise, and bequeath to the Council on Aging/Senior Center, Inc. 100 T.R.

On Friday, September 17, 2010 from 8:00 am until 11:00 am the COA will sponsor the Shelby Health Fair for adults age 55 and above who live in Shelby and surrounding areas. The place to be is the Neal Senior Center at 100 TR Harris Drive, Shelby, NC 28150. Screenings provided at the Health Fair include: Blood Pressure, Height, Weight, Vision, Hearing, Balance, Urinalysis, Bone density, Posture, and a comprehensive SMA 19 blood profile. Please remember that if you wish to have blood drawn for the profile, you may not have anything to eat after midnight on the night before the test or your results will not be as accurate as they should. You may have water and any medication that is required to be taken first thing in the morning. For the Bone Density screening, please make sure to wear socks or knee high hose, because the test requires a bare foot and ankle. The cost of the blood profile is $25*, all other screenings are free for adults 55 and over. Flu and pneumonia shots may be available. If so, flu shots are free with Medicare-B, but you must bring your Medicare Card. For anyone 55 & above without Medicare B the cost for the flu shots are $30.00* and for the pneumonia shots a $40.00* fee will be charged for persons without Medicare B. Each participant should bring proper identification, which includes your Medicare Card or Social Security Card (if you do not have Medicare) and a photo ID such as a driver’s license. Please call the Senior Center during the week of September 13th to see if the vaccinations will be available. Seniors are encouraged to attend the Health Fair. Besides health screenings and vaccines, an information fair will occur simultaneously, with vendors available from many county agencies who provide services for senior adults. For more information, call Lisa Abernethy at 704-482-3488.*Price is subject to change. SENIOR Mark your calendars for Tuesday, October 5, 2010 for Senior Day at the Cleveland County Fair!
