Carowinds Day
Big Success
'I'he JCC sold over 70 tickets
for the family day at Carowinds
on April 29th. Upon entering the
park, the JCC families were
greeted with a welcoming sign,
which made them feel as though
they were special guests of
Carowinds. While families
walked around the park, bump
ing into familiar faces, they
helped each other’s kids on the
rides. This contributed to the
feeling of .being one big JCC
family. •
After a fun-filled afternoon on
the rides, many families joined
together for a picnic supper and
then stayed to watch the air
show.

The warm, sunny weather
and the congeniality of the
group helped to make it a perfect
day for Carowinds. Surprising
ly, it was the fathers, not the
kids, who wouldn’t leave the
park — all agreed that it was a
delightful family outing.
Reminder: the JCC sells
Carowinds “Good Any Day”
tickets for $6.50 per person,

Sr/s Get Into the Swim of Things
Agility and general well-being is achieved by correct
breathing and exercise suited for the individual’s move
ment potential. Kxercise that is too strenuous uses a per-
son’s energy inefficiently whereas the fitness goal is the
seeking and reaching of maximum efficiency. The water is
the perfect place for achieving movement potential because
it allows buoyancy and maximum muscle toning.
A water exercise class for near-to-newly retired persons
will be offered by CPCC this summer to the JCC on
Wednesdays from 12:30 to 2 p.m.
Beginning June 27, the course, which is free to those over
65 and $3.25 for under 65, will consist of eleven weeks of
organized movement in the JCC pool. The Chai group has
already become involved in the Mdnday program
scheduled to begin June 25 and the near-ttf-newly retired
will complete the pilot class Wednesdays. Central Pied
mont’s goal is for the two-part program at the JCC to serve
as a model for similar programs in Charlotte.
The instructor, Abby Hoffman, certified in water safe
ty, is finishing her Human Development degree in arts, ag
ing, and movement education at UNCC. She is the initiator
of Vintage Creativity Workshops, working to bring the
movement, poetry and pottery arts media to groups of peo
ple in the (Jharlotte area. The Vintage Poetry Group at
Hawthorne Nursing_(Center and the movement workshop
at Booth Gardens are two programs^she began more than a
year ago. Ms. Hoffman lives in Newell, North Carolina and
