What is the Fitness Frenzy? A  month-long campaign to motivate you to stay active and fit while raising money for community nonprofit programs and the One Eighty Foundation.

The Fitness Frenzy encourages everyone to team up for fitness. Grab your friends, your staff, your vendors, even the UPS driver to join in our efforts to raise money for the One Eighty Foundation. Raising money to improve the lives of children and families is the mission of the foundation, which was founded by Leisure Care CEO Dan Madsen.

Anyone can participate in the Fitness Frenzy. All we need from you is a commitment to stay fit. Get all of the materials from your community and then set your physical and pledge goals. Whether it is walking, dancing, Wii Sports, sitting aerobics or team activities, track your active minutes per day. Then ask your family and friends to pledge money for your physical activity. It’s a fun way to be active and pay it forward to others. But, most of all, it’s just plain FUN!

How much fun? In 2019, our employees and residents were active for 3,719,184 minutes and raised an impressive $46,720! The goal for the campaign this year is $65,000, approximately $1,250 per Leisure Care community.

How do I get involved? Sign up or find out more at the front desk and visit our event website and start collecting pledges today:OneEightyFoundation.ejoinme.org/ 2020FitnessFrenzy!

Self-Care for SeniorsNow a popular concept, practicing self-care means giving yourself the attention you need to take care of your physical and emotional health. Show yourself some love with these simple self-care habits:

Take a walk — Simply stepping away for a few moments can help clear your mind, as well as provide exercise. Walking with a friend has social benefits, too.

Treat your hands and feet — We use our hands and feet every day, so we need to take care of them. Getting manicures, pedicures and hand massages and using moisturizing lotions will help you feel pampered and relaxed.

Make time for hobbies — If you like to read, draw, crochet, sing or play cards, celebrate it! Whatever you enjoy doing, join a club, attend a class or devote time every week to your favorite pastimes.

Eat well — In addition to eating balanced, nutritious meals, choose desserts and occasional treats that you really love. Without overindulging, savor the experience of eating them, so they are special.

Keep your health a priority — Going to the doctor and dentist or having items such as a walker or hearing aids checked may seem like routine tasks, but think of them as vital self-care habits.

Build a Beautiful BouquetFlower arranging is a fun way to explore your creative side, while also adding a bit of nature’s beauty to your indoor surroundings.

The most interesting arrangements have flowers in a variety of shapes, textures and stem lengths. If you’re using blooms in one color or that are similar in color, mixing flower types and sizes is key. For a multicolored bouquet, focus on just two to three kinds of flowers.

Almost anything can be a vase for your flowers — a glass container, a ceramic pitcher, or a vintage tin. Ideally, the finished bouquet should be taller and a bit wider than the vase to create balance.

Before adding flowers to the vase, cut about an inch off the stems. This will help them absorb water better and stay fresher longer. As you place each flower, remove any leaves that fall below the water line to help the water stay clean.

Arrange flowers in the vase from largest to smallest. If using branches or heavy greenery, place them first so they can help prop up the flowers. Continue with sturdy, large blooms followed by the showiest flowers. Finish your bouquet by tucking in delicate sprigs and blossoms.

Red Carpet RolloutSymbolizing glitz and glamour, a red carpet is rolled out for celebrities and VIPs to make a grand entrance.

The earliest reference to this custom appears in the ancient Greek play “Agamemnon,” in which the title character, a king, returns home from battle to a path of crimson tapestries laid out for him. Because red dye was difficult to make and expensive, only the elite could afford fabric in that color, and red became a sign of luxury.

The practice spread over time. In 1821, U.S. President James Monroe stepped off a riverboat onto a ceremonial red carpet in South Carolina. Starting in the early 1900s, red carpets directed passengers boarding the exclusive express train at New York City’s Grand Central Station, creating the status concept of “red-carpet treatment.”

In Hollywood, the legendary Sid Grauman rolled out a red carpet outside his movie theater when he organized the first film premiere in 1922. Douglas Fairbanks and the other stars of “Robin Hood” started a tradition of arriving actors “walking the red carpet” that continues today. Most famously, the annual Academy Awards ceremony has broadcast its pre-show red carpet event since 1961. The plush walkway has become a stage for celebs to pose for photos, give interviews and greet fans.

Love Around the WorldValentine’s Day is celebrated across the globe, and many countries have unique holiday traditions.

Germany: Heart-shaped gingerbread cookies with romantic messages written in icing are popular valentine gifts among German couples.

South Korea: Women give chocolate to men on Valentine’s Day, then the gesture is returned on White Day, March 14, when men are the gift-givers. Single friends get together on Black Day, April 14, and dine on bowls of noodles covered with a black bean sauce.

Mexico: The holiday is known as the Day of Love and Friendship in this country, where friends as well as romantic partners gift each other candy, flowers, balloons and stuffed animals.

South Africa: The expression “wear your heart on your sleeve” is fitting for South African women, who pin the name of their love interest to their shirtsleeve for the day.

Peru: Orchids are the flower of choice for valentines here, since they are native to this South American nation.

Philippines: Hundreds of couples in this Asian country tie the knot in mass wedding ceremonies on Feb. 14.
