Loyalist Bridge  ♣️♦️❤️♠️

Every Wednesday afternoon a group of neighbours from our community play bridge, and have for more than 30 years.  Bridge on Wednesdays is a great opportunity to challenge your skills while enjoying time with your neighbours.  In addition to our Wednesday games, we added a session of bridge lessons and practice bridge sessions last year.     We would love to have you join us for bridge regardless of your skill or experience.

New to bridge:
-Signup for beginner lessons
-An 8 week session that will provide you with enough knowledge to play the game
-Each session will provide concepts, a review of previous lessons and all the important changes to practice
-Coaches will be on hand to answer questions and provide guidance
-Notes and a final “Cheat Sheet” are provided
-There may be minimal costs for supplies

I’ve played before but I’m rusty:
– Join our practice sessions on Thursday mornings from 10:00am – 12:00pm
-Coaching is available
-“Cheat Sheets” are provided and we encourage you to use them
– There is no cost for these sessions

I can Play:
-Join our Wednesday group
-Need a partner?  Just let us know as we usually have someone available to pair with you.
-We throw a loonie in the pot each week to provide prize money and to pay for supplies.
-The biggest prize is the bragging rights!

Signups can be accomplished by emailing [email protected].   Looking forward to seeing you across the bridge table……   Loyalist Bridge Club

Meet weekly on Wednesday’s & Saturday’s at 1 pm in the clubhouse.
Contact Gary Tackaberry or Liz Phelan for more information. 

Billiards is weekly on Tuesday’s at 9:30am to 11:30am and Thursday’s 1:30pm to 3:30pm in the Games Room.

Tuesday mornings at 10am our group meets to knit/crochet and chat.  We share ideas, materials, patterns and most importantly friendship.  We have experienced and beginners in the group and we work on individual projects or projects to benefit the community.  

Recently we made “twiddlemuffs” for the residents in Briargate’s memory unit.  People with dementia often have restless hands.  Our colourful muffs will provide a wonderful source of visual, tactile and sensory stimulation while also allowing residents to keep their hands snug and warm.

Don’t know how to knit, crochet or read a pattern?  Not to worry, we can get you started with needles and yarn from our community stash.  Have extra yarn, needles or crochet hooks?  We are happy to take it off your hands.

Drop in and see us any Tuesday.

We sincerely thank them for their continued efforts and ask all CCC Members to be mindful that this is a volunteer-run program.

Paul Jepson and Janice Firth ran a trial exercise program called Bone Builders. Over 60 people took part; everyone really enjoyed the sessions and thought that this would be a good addition (not a replacement) to the Healthy Heart program.

As a reminder, the Bone Builders Program was developed using research conducted by Tufts University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This program is designed to decrease the risks of osteoporosis and prevent further deterioration of the bones in people who already have the disease.

In a follow up survey, the Clubhouse requested volunteers to help run this program. Just one individual volunteered. We would like more; ideally there would be a total of four volunteers to allow for vacations and other occasions when a leader is not available.

As with Healthy Heart, volunteers do not need to be health care or physical fitness professionals.

As a further reminder, the version that we shall be doing requires participants to stand or sit on a chair with (optional) weights. There are no exercises which are on the floor. This will surely be of interest to those who have difficulty getting down and then back up. Exercises are done slowly with no sudden movements.

Please consider offering to help out by volunteering as a leader. You can respond by sending an e-mail to [email protected].
