Little Free Library — <br />Take a Book, Leave a Book <br />This year, Cabarrus County Active Living and Parks added Little <br />Free Libraries stocked with donated books by the local library to <br />our facility locations. Alex Beck, parks program supervisor, made <br />them a reality after reading about the program online. Anyone in <br />the public has access to the books, which are stored in creative and <br />unlocked depositories. People who take a book can keep it, return it <br />or donate additional books to the collection. The first one opened in <br />Frank Liske Park and was soon followed with locations at at Camp <br />T.N. Spencer Park, Vietnam Veterans Park and the Cabarrus County <br />Senior Center in Concord. The public has provided very positive <br />feedback and describe it as a cool way to bring books to people <br />where they don't expect them. <br />Cabarrus Seniors Discover <br />Healthy Habits at Health <br />and Wellness Day <br />In March, the Cabarrus Arena opened its doors to area older adults on <br />Senior Health and Wellness Day (SHWD). The annual event, hosted by <br />Cabarrus County Active Living and Parks, provides the public access <br />to free health and wellness resources, activities and screenings. "To get <br />seniors out, not only benefits their health, it's a way to be social, get <br />active and have a lot of fun," said Makenzie Mullinax, wellness coordi- <br />nator with Cabarrus County. Wanda Whitley of Mt. Pleasant tried a few <br />of the center -stage exercise classes. "I started with line dancing and then <br />jumped in with belly dancing and the Hoop and Holler demonstration," <br />said Whitley. "Today was a good time to learn what's available to stay <br />healthy." Whitley also scheduled an onsite mammogram. It was the first <br />time she had scheduled one at the event. "It was great. I just received <br />a notice from my doctor it was time for one, so I got one here." Like <br />Whitley, attendees were able to participate in wellness examinations <br />from Carolinas HealthCare System and other local providers. <br />Let the Good Times Roll <br />Log rolling classes made a big splash in Cabarrus County this summer. <br />The Active Living and Parks Department offered log rolling classes at <br />the Camp T.N. Spencer Park pool. Classes centered on fundamentals, <br />including footwork and posture, using an imitation log that mimics <br />the movement of a real one. Log rolling is quickly becoming a fitness <br />craze, as it promotes balance, leg and core strength, cardiovascular <br />endurance and overall functional coordination. <br />��AJty^ #,h4 <br />1 -1 Page 390 <br />
