Swim, Surf & Wellness Wave Ridings and Having Fun - The Swim, Surf, & Wellness Club recently learned that there are active lifestyle seniors who meet, regularly, at a few of the beaches near OHCC so that they can "have fun" and "stay in shape" by surfing, boogie boarding, or body surfing. This group is the San Dieguito Boogie Boarding Group which currently meets each Monday and Friday, at 10 am, at Fletcher Cove, Solana Beach, or Moonlight Beach Encinitas. Many of the wave riders are over 60 years of age, and a few are even into their 90s. They surf in front of a lifeguard towers for greater safety. Interested in observing? Although, as a resident of Oceanside, we are not eligible to join the San Diego Newcomers Club, sdnewcomers.com, the Swim, Surf, & Wellness Club Board members thought this group was a great model for promoting wave riding. You can email Tim Pentel, at timpentel@yahoo.com to ask a question and to be included on the SS&W Club surf outings email list. Practicing Gratitude to Improve Your Health: Did you know that people who practice gratitude consistently feel more generous, compassionate, and connected to others? Ultimately gratitude is one of the great keys to unlocking happiness. Taking time each day to spontaneously acknowledge what you are grateful for each day has many health benefits. For more information on wellness activities for seniors, contact Dr. Kory Ward at korywc@comcast.net. We would love to hear from you! Pool and Spa: The SS&W Club Board continues to monitor the hours for the pool, spa, and appreciates all the enthusiasm and cooperation with abiding by the safe COVID-19 pool plans, and hours of operation for these health wellness activities.
