Featured Activity

Cane Self-Defense
Time: Thursdays 10:00 a.m.
Cost: $10.00 members
      $10.00 non-members
Location: Exercise Room
Description: This month we’d like to shine the spotlite one something all of us could use. Some self defense. Specifically Cane Self Defense. The class is how to defend yourself using your cane or walking stick. Taught by Senior Master Jim Willoughby. He has taught the class for nearly four years. He has been involved in martial arts for over 50 years, is a member of the Masters 2012 Hall of Fame. Senior Master Willoughby’s thoughts on the class is simple. Everyone else was teaching kids, and he had a bad knee so he and former instructor Grandmaster Pierre Bergere put a class together that takes seniors limits and disabilities into account. There are other cane classes out there, but they require a full range of motion. This class does not. The class also focuses on the redirection of power, and not necessarily attack.. It is a fun class for serious situations. Everyone is welcome, but remember to bring your cane or walking sticks. Also, dress in comfortable clothing. The class meets at 10 a.m., and the cost is $10 per week. For more information call us at (909)862-8104. Remember, the best offense is a good defense.
Kitchen Volunteer Wanted
By: Mike Sylva
Can you spare a few hours a day? How about a week? The Highland Senior Center Nutrition Program is looking for volunteers to help out in the kitchen. Helpers won’t be cooking. The food is all cooked off site. We are looking for people to help set up the dining room, serve the food, and then clean up.

It only takes a few hours a day. You can volunteer one day a week, or several days. If we could get several people to help out it would lighten the load even more. So if you are willing to help serve your fellow seniors, or if you have some questions, please see Timi or Penny.
