April Sneak Peak
April 3 - The Digital Experience

Public Library is returning with a lesson on digital technology including a little virtual reality fun! Afterwards, our intern Wesley has organized an Easter themed activity in the dome.
April 10 - Getting your affairs in Order
Valerie Young from Assurant of Life Canada/Purple Shield will be talking about Canada Purple Shield's final expense products and how to set money aside for the future use of paying for a funeral or cremation at the time of need, in addition to mortgage loans, credit card or other debts you may leave behind.
April 17- "How to Win at Health and Happiness"
Wellness specialist Robynn Neirop will be reminding us about the importance of health and happiness. She will then lead a yoga class in the event room. Please bring a yoga mat if you have one, and a water bottle (we do have a few yoga mats onsite).
April 24 - "Live Day by Day - Meaningful Mediation".
Audrey Isenor will be leading a discussion about elder mediation involving age-related issues. The private, informal, supportive and non-confrontational nature of mediation is particularly well suited to these types of discussions and to the older adults involved in them.

Advisory Committee
Thank you to our In Motion Advisory Committee who came out on Wednesday afternoon to meet about the future of our In Motion program. We look forward to sharing information with you next week.

Facility Toilets
Our automatic toilets are a little fussy. If they do not flush, you can do a little dance in the stall to activate the motion sensor. Alternately, please lower and raise the toilet seat - this will also activate the motion sensor for flushing.
Sponsorship Opportunities
We are starting to investigate sponsorship opportunities to help keep the In Motion program operating at a low cost, after Spring 2019.

Do you know anyone who may be interested in supporting this amazing program that brings people together through educational and recreational opportunities? Please send me an email - I would love to hear from you!
Program Check In
Don't forget to check in at the beginning of every In Motion session with Jonathan and Wesley at the front. They want to start their Tuesday by saying " Good Morning " to you all!

Also, don't forget your In Motion tag - AND please take it home with you after every session.
In Motion Fundraising
Don't forget to bring in your liquor and beer cans to raise money for our In Motion end of season BBQ on June 26.
