Craft Class

Friday, April 20th. Come to one or all
of the crafting sessions. All materials
including a hat will be provided but you
may want to bring along a little something extra to set your creation apart!
Let’s think about that something extra:
maybe this is a good time to do a little
recycling and bring that empty soup
can, yogurt cup or juice box with you to
adorn your hat; Perhaps you’ve always
fancied yourself a Carmen Miranda
style hat, now’s the time to empty
the fruit bowl and , well I think you get
the picture and we hope to see the
results! Not only will we be crafting
our own hats and extras for others that
are all THUMBS! But we’ll also need to
work on our centerpieces for each of
the tables. So don’t forget to come to
at least one if not all of the workshop
dates. Sally Billman a craft instructor
will be leading these classes.

Raleigh Boychoir
On Saturday, April 28, at 1:00 pm,
Arbor Acres is happy to present the
Raleigh Boychoir in concert in the
Fellowship Hall of the Retirement
Center. This engaging group of 30
young men will sing a wide variety
of musical selections for our enjoyment. The Raleigh Boychoir was
founded in 1968 by Mr. Thomas
Sibley, then the director of music
education for the Raleigh public
school system, and now a resident
of Arbor Acres. Tom was awarded
the city of Raleigh “Medal of the
Arts” for his decades of contribution
to the excellence of the cultural life
of Raleigh, NC. Tom’s wife Jane was
also continuously involved in the
RBC at Tom’s side. At performances,
she would be with the choir boys
backstage, straightening a tie here,
combing unruly hair there, helping find a missing shoe, calming
jittery nerves. We are proud that
Tom and Jane Sibley now call Arbor
Acres home. The mission of The
Raleigh Boychoir is to educate and
train boys in the art of singing, to
perform the finest music in the
boychoir tradition, and to enhance
North Carolina’s cultural reputation.
The Raleigh Boychoir experience
develops character, leadership, and
a strong commitment to excellence.
Since its establishment in 1968, the
Raleigh Boychoir has educated and
trained over 2,500 boys in the art of
performing the finest music in the
boychoir tradition. As boys progress through the three levels of the
choir, they learn to read music and
master vocal techniques. Through
musical training and performances,
the boys not only develop an
appreciation of a wide range of
choral literature, they also gain
self-confidence and poise, develop
leadership and teamwork skills, and
acquire self-discipline and selfrespect. The choir has performed in
28
Saturday
Carnegie Hall, at the White House,
at the Vatican, and in many other
venues in the US and Europe. Alumni
choristers have gone on in life to
succeed in a variety of professional
fields, not just musical professions
but also physicians, attorneys, teachers, engineers and businessmen.
Some have become music directors,
composers, opera singers, even
“American Idol” TV show finalists.

APRIL IS HUNGER AWARENESS MONTH
A study called “Food Hardship in
America 2010: Households With
and Without Children” reported
that our area of North Carolina is
the “worst in the US”. Last year 1
in 4 children here lived in poverty,
and over 52,000 people per month
received food and nutrition assistance. The month of April 2012 has
been named by the Arbor Acres
Resident Council as Hunger Awareness Month, and there will be a
full schedule of great opportunities
this month for us to work with our
local Crisis Control Ministry (CCM)
to help feed these hungry children.
The major purpose is to collect
canned foods for the CCM Pantry.
Large bins will be near the front
door to the Berrier Building and
in the Library, where individuals
may deposit bags of canned foods
throughout the month. When we
go to the grocery stores, look for
the bargains, and bring extras to
fill these bins. As they are filled,
the food will be transported to
the CCM Pantry. For those who
may not be able to shop, as well
as others who desire, monetary
donations can be made by placing
a check made out to Crisis Control
Ministry in the yellow box in the
cubby area and the green box in
Asbury Place cubby room. Become
involved in the activities and FillA-Sac with food as often as you
can so the bins have to be emptied
often!

Fellowship Hall
A very special walk is planned this
month. Many of you have already
learned about the work of Crisis
Control Ministry, helping feed the
hungry children right here in our
own community. It is astounding to
know how many children really need
our help. This walk is to bring attention to how easy it is for us to help!
All you need to do to participate is
join us at the Bay Window to pick up
a copy of the route sheet. The walk
will begin at 2:00p.m. SHARP! We
will begin by having a drawing to see
who receives a number. This number will indicate the cards along the
route in which you will bring back
and collect food items for our hungry
children. We will also be accepting
contributions in the form of checks
made out to Crisis Control Ministry
and placed in the yellow box in the
cubby room for those who wish to
make a monrtary donation. For those
of you who wish to purchase food
for this event and need transportation, there will be a trip to Lowes
Foods on Thursday, April 12 leaving
the front lobby at 11:00a.m. These
and any other food items you wish to
donate may be brought to the food
bins located in the front lobby of the
Berrier Building and the library for
those that are unable to participate
in the Scavenger Hunt. For all of
your efforts, may you find much joy
in helping the hungry!
WHAT IS IT?
I would like to invite you to participate in a program that can lead to a
healthier life style for you and prevent the risk of suffering from a fall.
Many older adults experience a
fear of falling that can limit their
activities and result in physical weakness making the risk of falling even
greater. A Matter of Balance includes
eight two-hour sessions for a small
group led by a trained facilitator.
During the class you will learn to:
•
View falls as controllable
•
Set goals for increasing activity
•
Make changes to reduce fall risk at home
•
Exercise to increase strength and balance
Participants will enjoy spending
time together, getting to know each
other, sharing ideas, helping each
other, having “healthy snacks”, and
develop a habit of exercising regularly.
Please plan to join us for more information on April 20th at 10:30am
and to sign up for the class that will
be held later in the summer or early
fall.
