ANNUAL SWEATER EXHIBIT

For over 25 years now, The Fountains Knitters

and Crocheters have been creating exquisite sweaters. The

fact is they have made over 10,000 sweaters. Each sweater

is a labor of love and a true expression of our

residents' commitment to making a difference in the lives

of underserved children living in Tucson. The sweaters will

be on exhibit in our lobby and first-floor main gallery for

the entire month of September. After the exhibit, they will

be distributed to school-age children throughout Tucson. A

reception to meet these talented women will be held in the

Lobby, Sunday, September 2, 2018 at 2:00 pm.

STEPPING INTO SEPTEMBER

ACTIVE AGING WEEK

Initiated in 2003 by the International Council on Active Aging®

(ICAA), Active Aging Week takes place each year during the last

week of September. The weeklong campaign calls attention to,

and wholeheartedly celebrates, the positivity of aging today. It

showcases mature adults as fully participating and contributing

members of society. The objective of the annual health-

promotion event is to give as many older adults as possible the

means to experience wellness activities and exercise in a safe,

supportive environment. It also promotes the benefits of

healthier, more active

lifestyles across the

lifespan. Watch for

healthy treats after our

chair yoga class on 9/26

at 11:30 am and The

Fountains first-ever

Senior Prom, Thursday,

9/27 at 6:30 pm in the

LIVING WELL

Tips for Healthy LivingTips for Healthy Living

Eating fruits and vegetables of different

colors gives your body a wide range of

valuable nutrients, including fiber,

folate, potassium and vitamins A and C.

Some examples are green spinach,

orange sweet potatoes, black beans,

yellow corn, purple plums, blueberries,

red watermelon and white onions. Have

them with meals or for a snack. Leave

the skins on your fruits and vegetables,

if possible.. Eat a diet rich in foods that

contain fiber such as dry beans, fruits,

vegetables and wholegrain foods.

Breakfast is a good time to enjoy foods

with fiber. Try unsweetened, whole

wheat or bran cereals and add fruits

like berries and bananas.

Reaching and maintaining a healthy

weight are important for your overall

health and wellbeing. The secret is to

balance your “energy in” and

“energy out”. “Energy in” is the calories

from foods and beverages you have

each day and “energy out” is the calories

you burn for basic body functions and

during physical activity. Your weight will

stay the same when the calories you eat

and drink equal the calories you burn.

On the other hand, you will gain weight

when the calories you eat and drink are

greater than those you burn. Physical

activity can help you reach and keep a

healthier weight, maintain your balance

and provide social interaction. We have

much to choose from daily for your

enjoyment!

The foundation of Watermark University (WU) is to provide meaningful opportunities to learn, teach and grow,

resulting in a life of overall well-being. Research shows that learning and keeping our mind active and sharp

supports healthy aging.

At Watermark Retirement Communities we are committed to encouraging our residents and associates to lead

balanced lives, full of meaning and purpose, grounded in self-awareness and infused with curiosity, our

Watermark University courses help achieve this goal. By focusing on the Seven Dimensions of Well-being:

Physical, Social, Intellectual, Spiritual, Emotional, Environmental, and Vocational we offer the opportunity to

achieve a balanced life and we see the benefits across the country in every class, every day.
