Newport Parks and Recreation Fall 2016 Activity Guide http://www.newportoregon.gov/Recreation

There is plenty of work taking place inside the new pool building. With the roof on and the walls up, it is very hard to see what is happening without peeking inside. The pool installation company is busy digging and forming the sides and bottoms of the new pools. The pool plumbing

is being connected to the pumps and boilers which are all below deck and out of site. Many people have asked about the installation of UV light ﬁltration to control microorganisms and reduce chemicals (chlorine) in the water. We have made all the provisions to install this equipment but due to earlier budget setbacks, the actual purchase of the equipment was put on hold. Until we are further along with the build and can ensure that we will have enough funds to complete the essential components, we will not be purchasing the UV equipment. This equipment can however, be added at any time before or after the completion of the facility. Another popular question has been about the color. That beautiful yellow is just a vapor

barrier and will be covered by exterior siding to match the existing Recreation Center. Lastly, I want to comment about the parking, which we know has been in short supply lately. Thank you to everyone that has been willing to park away from the Rec Center and walk or ride a bike. It has not been ideal but it sure is not as bad as some envisioned either. The Parks and Recreation staff have been really busy all summer with outdoor programs, camps and sports. Now with Fall coming on, we will start focusing on indoor classes and things to do if the weather turns foul. Our very own staffer, Sports Coordinator, Michael Cavanaugh was awarded the City of Newport Employee of the Year this year award at the Newport Chamber

of Commerce Award Banquet. If you happen to see Mike at any one of the multiple events and leagues he directs, make sure to congratulate him for a job well done. Long time staffer Heather Hughes has recently accepted a new Job in Hawaii and we wish her well. There are many opportunities to join the Parks and Recreation Department staff team, please feel free to ask us how to apply and what we have available. Take care of yourself and those around you. You can be the change and it can start today.

Sincerely,

Jim Protiva Newport Parks and Recreation J.protiva@newportoregon.gov

Newport Parks and Recreation Activity Guide Fall 2016

NEWPORT 60+ CENTER

Silver Sneakers Circuit Wednesday, 10:45 - 11:45 am & Saturday, 10:00 - 11:00 am Combine fun with ﬁtness to increase your cardiovascular and muscular endurance power with a standing circuit workout. Upperbody strength work with hand-held weights, elastic tubing with handles, and a Silver Sneakers ball is alternated with low-impact aerobics choreography. A chair is used for standing support, stretching and relaxation exercises. Certiﬁed Instructor Mary Andersen.

Silver Sneakers Yoga Mondays, 9:30 am Silver Sneakers yoga accommodates persons who can’t get up and down easily from the floor. This style of yoga can be a very complete workout that increases flexibility and strength, while incorporating breathing techniques that are both energizing and calming. Group leader Michelle Annette has been certified by Silver Sneakers and holds a Group Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer certification.

Yoga, Hatha - Gentle Tuesdays, 11:45 – 12:45 pm This is a slow and gentle yoga class that will soothe and relax you like nothing else. Unlike the power yoga classes, this class moves slowly through the poses, and holds them for longer lengths of time so you can soak in and reap the full beneﬁts of each posture. This class is still dynamic and will stretch and lengthen every muscle in your body from your head to your toes, but it will do so in a gentle, soothing, and relaxing way. Instructor Kelly Ardinger

Zumba Gold Mondays & Fridays, 10:45 am Come to the Zumba Gold dance party.

SOCIAL GROUPS Meeting People & Having Fun The City of Newport is “The friendliest.“ The 60+ Activity Center offers the chance to join existing social groups. Every occasion here at the center is an opportunity to get social. People have gained lifelong friendships from attending one or more of our activities. Most of our social groups are FREE.

Tai Chi Monday, 12:30 - 1:15 pm This class is led by Athena Crichton. Everyone welcome! The group will practice warms ups and some simple Tai Chi moves. This is an 8 form movement of Tai Chi. Pictured are newly certiﬁed instructors Kelly Ardinger, Athena Crichton and Alice McNamara.

Wii Bowling Tuesdays, 9:30 - 10:30 am Have some fun at the 60+ Center; see the multipurpose room transform into a three-lane bowling alley! These games are a good way to improve your senses, visually and physically.

Bingo Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, 11:00 - 11:45 am Donation to play.

Bunco 3rd Thursday of each month, 1:00 - 3:00 pm Donation to play. This game is primarily an excuse to get together with others who want to laugh and forget themselves while they play this simple game of tossing dice and counting scores. The laughter is so loud in our social lounge where the players are whooping and hollering that the ofﬁce has to close the door to get any work done. Come and have some “mindless” fun with this funloving group.
