to introduce<br />
you to Bethany<br />
Vernon,<br />
the new<br />
Resident<br />
Services<br />
Manager for Independent Living.<br />
Bethany started on December<br />
29 and has been learning<br />
all about <strong>Arbor</strong> <strong>Acres</strong> and the<br />
Resident Services Department.<br />
She meets with all of our new<br />
residents; plans the discharges<br />
from the hospitals for independent<br />
living residents; manages<br />
the E.L.I.T.E. program;<br />
sets up individual services that<br />
residents may need; and works<br />
closely with Rachel Gladstone,<br />
Director of Resident Services, to<br />
make sure residents and their<br />
families have the information<br />
and services they need to make<br />
their lives here as happy and<br />
comfortable as possible.<br />
Bethany moved to Winston-Salem<br />
about a year and a half ago<br />
from Asheville with her<br />
husband, Adam, and their<br />
four children: Sarah, 12; Joshua,<br />
<strong>11</strong>; Jonathan, 7; and Joseph,<br />
4. She graduated from Western<br />
Carolina University in 2009<br />
with a Bachelor of Social Work<br />
degree. Her husband is an Associate<br />
Minister at Wesley Memorial<br />
United Methodist Church<br />
in High Point and is a native of<br />
England.<br />
Other changes in the Resident<br />
Services Department include:<br />
Susan Smart moved her office<br />
to the first floor of Asbury Place<br />
and is working primarily with<br />
the residents that have moved<br />
to this beautiful location. Susan<br />
welcomes visitors if you would<br />
like to come over and see Asbury<br />
Place.<br />
Janis Gorlick is concentrating<br />
on designing and implementing<br />
a new transportation system for<br />
our campus and staffing it with<br />
volunteers and <strong>Arbor</strong> <strong>Acres</strong> employees.<br />
Please give her<br />
a call with any ideas you may<br />
have for this transportation<br />
project. Janis will continue to<br />
recruit volunteers for our campus,<br />
manage the three beautiful<br />
beauty shops and work<br />
with residents when they make<br />
a move to a new location on<br />
campus.<br />
Gary Bartholomew and Joe<br />
Merlan will continue to run the<br />
efficient Transportation Department<br />
but are now located in<br />
the Fitzgerald Health<br />
Center building. They will<br />
continue to transport every<br />
resident on campus to their<br />
doctors’ appointments. Please<br />
contact them by dialing extension<br />
1288.<br />
We welcome all the new faces<br />
at <strong>Arbor</strong> <strong>Acres</strong> and are happy<br />
to help any residents who have<br />
questions about the changes<br />
on our campus. If you need<br />

Movie: Darby O’Gill and the Little People (1959)<br />
(G)<br />
Darby (Albert Sharp) is<br />
an aging caretaker who<br />
tells many tales of the<br />
little people. Michael<br />
McBride (a pre-Bond<br />
Sean Connery) is his<br />
replacement who falls<br />
for Darby’s daughter,<br />
Katie (Janet Munro). Most people of the town<br />
don’t quite believe Darby’s tales, but many humor<br />
him out of respect for the art of Irish storytelling.<br />
Fun songs crop up throughout the film, including<br />
one crooned by young Connery. Though this is an<br />
American film, produced by Disney, it brings out<br />
the Irish in ye, and is ranked by some as the #1 St.<br />
Patrick’s Day movie.

Celtic Flutes and Guitar<br />
Meet at 6:45pm from the front lobby<br />
for shuttle or walk over to this event.<br />
Sharon Fogarty is based in Winston-Salem and is a<br />
graduate of music performance from the University<br />
of North Carolina School of the Arts. She began her<br />
musical journey on the Irish whistle, then switched<br />
to flute. She studied classically under the<br />
direction of Debra Reuter-Pivetta and Philip Dunigan.<br />
Five years ago she found herself back in the<br />
world of Celtic music which led her to co-found the<br />
group Immigrant’s Daughter, a Celtic music group<br />
consisting of flutes, fiddle and harp. She also performs<br />
with a Celtic rock group called Brynmor.<br />
Luke Payne is a musician also based in Winston- Salem,<br />
North Carolina. He holds a Master of Music<br />
degree from UNCSA, where he studied classical guitar<br />
under Joseph Pecoraro, and is currently studying<br />
Hindustani classical music on the sarod with<br />
Gaurang Doshi. He performs frequently in diverse<br />
musical contexts, from jazz to classical to pop. He is<br />
a member of the band Lean In, and has been awarded<br />
a grant from the Forsyth County Arts Council to<br />
complete his debut album of original songs.<br />
Luke and Sharon unite their talents to bring you an<br />
evening of dance tunes, such as jigs, reels and hornpipes,<br />
and some slow airs and songs like “Star of the<br />
County Down” and “Foggy Dew.” We hope you can<br />
come out to experience the magic of Celtic music.<br />

book, Wild Mind, and those of Anne Lamott from her<br />
book, Bird by Bird. The most unique aspect of this<br />
group is time set aside each meeting to engage in<br />
some directed, creative writing using exercises provided<br />
by Goldberg. Sharing of anything that is written<br />
will be completely voluntary and no experience is<br />
necessary. We spend anywhere from an hour to an<br />
hour and a half together dependent on the will and<br />
mood of the group. Yummy snacks will be provided to<br />
fuel the imagination!<br />

Author Study a Grand Success<br />
The group study of the stories of Flannery O’Connor<br />
has just wrapped up, receiving rave reviews (well,<br />
okay, not everyone loved the stories, but most<br />
seemed to enjoy the discussion). Therefore, we’re<br />
looking to continue the series with studies of two<br />
other authors, possibly Annie Dillard and Wendell<br />
Berry, but, as always, we’d love to have suggestions<br />
from you! Watch for a coming announcement of the<br />
date and time for this series, and let Bert (ext. 1590)<br />
know of any authors you’d like to study.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION: The Gathering<br />
Place, The Fitness Room, Jule’s Pools<br />
The Gathering Place will continue to be open<br />
most of the time during renovation of Corpening<br />
building, but will close for a brief period to install<br />
sprinkler systems and electrical work. We will<br />
continue to hold classes in this space but you can<br />
gain access through the single RED elevator in the<br />
Passageway. The main Corpening elevators will<br />
be closed during renovation.<br />
This holds true for the Fitness room on 2nd floor<br />
as well. You may continue to use the fitness<br />
room but please use the RED elevator in the passageway<br />
and please remember to wear your PET!<br />
The swimming pool, aka“Jule’s Pool,” will also be<br />
open until construction begins in that area. However,<br />
the Corpening parking lot will be closed to<br />
residents, staff and visitors because it is a construction<br />
zone. To access the pool please park in<br />
the administration lot at Berrier building. Come<br />
into the reception area and continue to the pool<br />
table. Go through the door at the window seat<br />
(across from the pool table) and follow the path<br />
to the Terrace entrance or to avoid the hill - take<br />
the McPherson elevator to 3rd floor and walk<br />
across to the Corpening Terrace to the pool entrance.<br />
This will allow you access into the pool<br />
area. If you live nearby on campus you may walk<br />
down the steps at Bayberry and enter the pool<br />
through the Terrace entrance. Watch for more<br />
details in a cubby letter and keep an eye on TV 6<br />
for updates on changes. Now is the time to practice<br />

“I have two doctors, my left leg and my right<br />
leg,” wrote British author George Trevelyn in<br />
1913 about the health benefits of walking.<br />
Nearly a century later, modern medical experts<br />
echo the same advice: get up and walk!<br />
Our walking program starts Monday, March 5,<br />
and continues through Friday, March 30. We’ll<br />
track the distances and amount of time you<br />
walk, and in April will celebrate all participants’<br />
accomplishments with coffee and doughnuts<br />
(just one!) Whether you prefer walking solo or<br />
with a group, please follow these walking tips:<br />
Wear comfortable shoes and clothing.<br />
Always wear sunscreen.<br />
Walk against traffic.<br />
Wear light-colored clothing.<br />
Avoid walking at dusk.<br />
Wear your PET.<br />
Walking Routes<br />
Tunnel: 5 laps (down and back = one lap): 1 mile<br />
From Servery through tunnel to Robinson Hall:<br />

Breathe Better for Fun and Profit<br />
Guest Instructor: David MacMahon, N.D.<br />
Tuesdays, March 6 – April 24<br />
1:00 pm, Jean Steelman Chapel<br />
You read that right - breathing better is both fun<br />
and profitable. Will it make you rich? Yes, if you<br />
consider that being healthier, feeling better and<br />
enjoying life more are worth a lot. Most people<br />
take breathing for granted until they have trouble,<br />
like shortness of breath or painful breathing,<br />
or asthma, emphysema or any other breathing<br />
disorder. Then they quickly realize how critical<br />
breathing is, not just for life, but for quality of<br />
life. Breathing well can help relieve pain, reduce<br />
stress, lower high blood pressure, make everyday<br />
tasks easier, raise energy levels, sharpen<br />
mind/brain activity, increase immune function<br />
and improve quality and length of sleep. There<br />
is a lot more to learn about breathing well,<br />
including simple, easy techniques to address a<br />
wide range of physical, mental, emotional and<br />
spiritual issues. Come get your share of the fun<br />
in this 8-week series of classes led by David M.<br />
McMahon, N.D, a board certified holistic health<br />
practitioner based in Winston-Salem.<br />
Classes are at 1:00 pm every Tuesday beginning<br />
March 6, 2012, in the Jean Steelman Chapel.<br />
Save your seat by signing up at the bay window.<br />
Deadline to sign up is Monday, March 5th. Cost<br />
is $15.00 for the 8-week series; your account will<br />
be charged.<br />
Croquet is for everyone!<br />
There is scheduled croquet on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1:30 pm; however, the court and<br />
