June 2015 MISSION STATEMENT To provide nutritious meals, socialization, health screening, and education. We act as a catalyst for access, opportunity, health and independence for older adults. Dear Dad, I just wanted to tell you _________________. No matter what your relationship is, or was, with your own dad, you probably filled in the blank space with your own thought very quickly. On Sunday, June 21, Father's Day 2015 will be recognized as a national holiday. And, although the traditional roles of fathers may differ across cultures and change over the years, one thing remains the same; That is the impact a father can have on the life of a child. Proud Partners With Aging & Disabilities Services Division ADSD Are you someone's father or 'father figure?' If you are a new dad, a grandfather or a great-grandfather, we mothers and children want to say Thank You. Speaking from experience, the very best memories I have of my own dad (who is still alive and still making memories!) are a collection of many small events. I recall conversations, learning to drive, catching my first fish, his appearance at my swimming meet to cheer me on, and a very stern look when I walked in the door as I arrived home – late - after an evening with high school friends. If it has been a long time since you talked to your dad, I encourage you to pick up the phone or send a card. It may be a difficult step but it will go a long way for both of you. If your dad isn’t around any longer, consider calling or encouraging another father in your family, your neighborhood or your church. Al Park Petroleum Being a great father is like shaving. No matter how good you shaved today, you have to do it again tomorrow. - Reed Markham, American educator The gestures you believe are insignificant may be some of the most memorable. In honor of our fathers, Kerry 1795 Ruby View Drive Elko | 775.738.3030 Center Hours: Mon-Fri 8:00 AM-4:00 PM www.elkoseniors.org 1 The Terrace at Ruby View ANNOUNCEMENTS Lee, Ruth Alsdorf, Garry-Beth Carter, Vicki Lopez, Ruben Combs, M.

Many people think of exercise as a way to get fit. And while regular exercise can improve fitness, it can also have a positive impact on health conditions that commonly occur as we age. What if your health problem could be improved by stepping up your physical activity? Making exercise a regular part of your daily routine will have a positive impact on your health and your quality of life as you get older. Staying physically active and exercising regularly can help improve mood and reduce feelings of depression help manage or improve diabetes help manage or improve heart disease help manage or improve some types of cancer. Exercise also helps people with high blood pressure, balance problems, or difficulty walking. Being physically active can also help you stay strong and fit enough to keep doing the things you like to do and stay independent as you get older. For example, improving endurance can make it easier to work in the garden. Increasing muscle strength can make it easier to lift a grandchild or climb stairs. Improving balance helps prevent falls, and being more flexible can help you reach for items on kitchen shelves. Exercise Programs offered at The Terrace: Tai Chi teaches graceful and relaxing movements that can improve your balance, strength and mobility. It is considered one of the most beneficial exercises for older adults. CrossFit is a core strength and conditioning program that optimizes your cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, agility and balance. Stretch Program is a slow and gentle exercises designed to increase range of motion, flexibility and mobility. Strength Program maintains muscle mass, bone density (to prevent osteoporosis and fractures), and Balance More information about the Terrace exercise classes can be found on page 6 & 7. For more on the everyday benefits of exercise, see "Real-Life Benefits of Exercise and Physical Activity" from Go4Life®, the exercise and physical activity campaign from the National Institute on Aging. http://nihseniorhealth.gov/exerciseforolderadults/faq/faq1.html 3 The Terrace at Ruby View Before Jim’s first wife passed away, she had created cookbooks for her daughters and him. These cook books were filled with the family’s favorites recipes along with some new ones. Over the years Jim has prepared many of the recipes from his cook book, but his absolute favorite recipe is the Beefy Mexican Lasagna. Jim’s reason, “It's quick, easy & makes great leftovers for lunch!” Once in a while Jim likes to shake things up. Instead of using the canned tomatoes, he will use fresh tomatoes from his garden. If the mood hits him and he wants to spice things up, he may add a fresh chopped onion, garlic or maybe some peppers, also from his garden. This dish is not only simple, but impressive. His current wife, Danielle recalled the first time that she ever had the dish. A few years back, before Jim and Danielle started dating, she and her daughter came down with a cold. Being a caring kind of guy, Jim made his casserole for them so Danielle wouldn’t have to worry about cooking dinner. Not only was this one of the best things Danielle ever tasted, the both of them loved it so much that they had it for breakfast the next morning. Please join us for this unique dish on Friday, June 12th. Jim Yroz Winner of June Famous Recipes Beefy Mexican Lasagna 1 pound ground beef 1 can (16 oz) whole tomatoes, cut up 1 pkg.

U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle is sent to Iraq with only one mission: to protect his brothers-in-arms. His pinpoint accuracy saves countless lives on the battlefield and, as stories of his courageous exploits spread, he earns the nickname "Legend." However, his reputation is also growing behind enemy lines, putting a price on his head and making him a prime target of insurgents. He is also facing a different kind of battle on the home front: striving to be a good husband and father from halfway around the world. Based on the book by Chris Kyle with Scott McEwen and Jim DeFelice. McFarland USA – June 11-12 PG Running Time – 2:00 Starring: Kevin Costner, Maria Bello, Morgan Saylor, Elsie Fisher, Natalia Cordova-Buckley In 1987, novice runners in an economically challenged town in California's farm-rich Central Valley give their all to build a cross-country team under the direction of Coach Jim White, a newcomer to their predominantly Latino high school. Coach White and the McFarland students have a lot to learn about each other, but things begin to change when White sees the boys' exceptional running ability. Something beyond their physical gifts becomes apparent-the power of family relationships, their unwavering commitment to one another and their incredible work ethic. With grit and determination, the unlikely band of runners eventually overcomes the odds to forge not only a championship team, but an enduring legacy as well. Along the way, Coach White realizes that his family has finally found a place to call home, as he and his team achieve their own kind of American dream. Based on a true story.
