Here's a great way to start 2012: There is still time to register for the high school tennis camp to be held at BFR on Jan 2, 3 and 4.
The camp is designed for high school age players with little or no formal instruction. Players will work on the basic strokes and serves plus learn about court positions. Call BFR 419-358-4150 to reserve a space for the 1:30 p.m. or 3 p.m. group.
Cost per player is $60 ($45 BFR member); scholarships for those with financial need are available.
BFR will offer another 12-week session of the Fit 4 Life program beginning the week of Jan. 7. The Fit 4 Life fitness program will assist individuals in meeting individual weight loss and exercise goals.
Over 100 individuals have taken advantage of the Fit 4 Life program so far. Feedback has been very positive including reported improvements in cholesterol and blood pressure levels, energy and endurance, plus pounds and inches lost. Fit 4 Life participants report feeling more comfortable in the exercise environment and more confident in their exercise abilities.
Although it peaked on Thursday night, you will still have many opportunites to see several shooting stars tonight, Friday, Dec. 14, into Saturday.
The Geminid meteor shower is one of the best star shows of the year. Icon veiwers can really take advantage of this tonight.
Many of us here in the northern hemisphere are likely more familiar with the annual Perseid meteor shower. That takes place in the summer, when it is a lot easier to leave the house and find a nice open field or dark area to sit.
