The Fountains at Crystal Lake965 N. Brighton Circle WestCrystal Lake, IL 60012

For more than 100 years, Girl Scouts have

helped ensure the success of the iconic

annual cookie sale—and they’ve had fun,

developed valuable life skills, and made their communities a

better place every step of the way. We are happy to be

helping with this by having a local troop come in to sell

cookies to all of you! So, come join Troop #1960 on Sunday,

March 8th, 12:30-2:30 in the lobby. They are $5.00 a box and

must be paid in cash, at time of purchase.

The month of March unfolds new life and reawakening in our lives.

Our classes here at the Fountains, are designed to do the same!

Lornadee, was born in England, but raised in South Africa. With

Watermark University offerings, she is able to share her personal

experiences about the Tribes of Africa with you all. Since there are

over 3,000 Tribes, Lornadee has chosen to discus The Yoruba, The

richest Tribe; The Mbuit, A Tribe under threat from conservation;

Bayaka, one of the world's most remote Tribes; and Anuak of

Ethiopia. Please join her, Sunday, March 22 at 2:00pm.

If you would like a catalog/information on our classes we offer, or

would like to teach a class, please call Gina at 815/477-6582.

The Gardens

The 5th century Anglo Saxons

referred to March as Hraed

Monath, or Rugged Month.

With our current vernacular,

we desire for March to, “come

in like a lion and go out like a

lamb." All of us here want you

to THRIVE during the

upcoming Hraed Monath and

toward that goal, we have a number of events planned for you. In

addition to our schedule of resident activities, we will also be

celebrating St. Patrick’s Day from 2:00-3:00 on Tuesday, March

17th with music by Mike and Tom and of course, green beer and

Irish Soda Bread made by our very own Residents! If you would like

to help make the bread, please come down to the Craft Room at

10:00am on Monday, March 16. Hope to see you all at these great

events!

Happy Spring,

Amy Dunn, Executive Director

HraedMonath Good nutrition is eating healthy foods

that benefit and provide good nutrients

to the body. It should consist of eating

3 meals a day and 3 healthy

snacks. Research also shows that people

who eat a low-fat meal for breakfast,

tend to eat less throughout the day.

An example of a great breakfast choice is

a cup of oatmeal. It is good for the heart

and a great source of fiber. Eat some fat!

Really, we need some fat in our diet to

help us absorb necessary vitamins. It is

wise to limit the salt in your diet

whether you have high blood pressure or

not. Food isn’t the enemy, sitting is! So,

try to exercise once a day for 15-20

minutes, not only will it help your heart,

but it will boost your metabolism! Learn

more about Benefits of Nutrition with

Path to Well-Being

The past 70 years have brought many changes to our lives. Back in 1950

people were listening to “Rag Mop” by Ames Brothers and going to watch

“Cinderella” in the Theater, but little did the world know that Bob and

Dorothy Ward were going to walk down the aisle and become man and

wife! After 7 decades together, they are still more in love with each other.

They met at church where they were involved in the youth group and

Dorothy even played piano there. The Ward's have achieved a marriage

that most of us could only dream about. When asked what was their secret

to a lasting marriage both expressed the same sentiment, “Trust,

communication, and faith.” If you see the Ward’s walking down the hall,

make sure to wish them a Happy 70th Wedding Anniversary and we wish

them many more years to come!
