Tools of the trade

Our CERT Team - Thank You

I was just walking past the Library on Saturday when I saw Pam Hanvik body slamming someone. It turned out to be V V LaPointe (our medical mannequin). It was another classroom day for our team who put in 1600 hours of classroom training last year (their first year of existence). If you see any of these folks, thank them for their service. They are a dedicated and skilled group who put in a lot of time to make us safer and it really showed during Hurricane Irma. Thanks LPV CERT team. Members of the team Bill Hanvik, Rich Gibbons, Bob Clifford, Pam Hanvik, Jessica Hale, Doug Stamper and Bruce Carpenter (absent Angela Kieb, Donna and Bill Pope) and of course the very pretty/handsome VV Lapointe.

I spotted the AED on my way out and thought it was worth a shot

LPV Activities - Yoga

Every Monday and Wednesday it's Yoga in the clubhouse at 10 am. It's geared to go at your own pace and is great for flexibility, balance and relaxation with just one rule - breathe.

Instructor Pam keeps us motivated

LPV Activities - Water Aerobics

Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10 am it's Water Aerobics under the direction of Quang.

LPV Activities - Coffee Hour

The attendance at coffee hour has been steadily picking up as more snowbirds arrive. Come out Saturday mornings at 8:30 for a coffee, donut or bagel and meet some Lake Pointe Villagers.

Veterans Day at Lake Pointe Village (Remembrance Day to us Canadians)

 

 

 

                                                 In Flanders fields the poppies blow
                                                  Between the crosses, row on row,
                                                 That mark our place; and in the sky
                                                 The larks, still bravely singing, fly
                                                 Scarce heard amid the guns below.

                                                 We are the Dead.   Short days ago
                                              We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
                                              Loved and were loved, and now we lie
                                                            In Flanders fields.

                                                   Take up our quarrel with the foe:
                                                 To you from failing hands we throw
                                                   The torch; be yours to hold it high.
                                                   If ye break faith with us who die
                                           We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
                                                              In Flanders fields.

                                                                 John McCrae
