Pete Banning was Clanton, Mississippi’s

favorite son—a decorated World War II

hero, the patriarch of a prominent family,

a farmer, father, neighbor, and a faithful member of the

Methodist church. Then one cool morning in October he rose

early, carried out his daily routine, drove into town, and

committed a shocking crime. Join our Audio Book Club on

Mondays at 10:30 am as we discover what comes of Pete in

John Gresham's The Reckoning.

The Gardens

As we approach the start of

Spring, let us celebrate this

time of new life and new

beginnings! Please join us as

we start a Garden Club with

the planting of succulents on

March 2nd. These beautiful

plants are easy to take care of

and are very on trend right

now. We also have new art classes this month which will be led

by local artist Morris Weiner. Join us on March 12th and 26th to

explore your inner artist in these classes. Another opportunity

to express your creative side is jewelry making which will

be hosted on March 20th. Join us to craft your own unique pieces

that you can keep for yourself or share as a gift. And on the first

day of Spring there will be a Watermark University class focused on

the Spring Solstice. We are looking forward to this breath of fresh

air that spring promises and the opportunities to explore new

pursuits and connect with each other.

Slide intoSpring The ancient practice of meditation has

grown in popularity in recent years as

more people discover the multitude of

benefits associated with this practice.

Meditation is a habitual process of

training your mind to focus and redirect

your thoughts. It is said to not only

reduce stress and develop concentration

but also to aid in improving sleep,

managing anxiety, decreasing blood

pressure, and helping people control

pain. There are a variety of meditative

techniques including guided meditation,

mindfulness meditation, qigong, tai chi

and concentration meditation. Join

Amanda on March 19th as she shares the

benefits of morning meditation, some of

the popular techniques and approaches.

You may find that this is something that

could enhance your sense of well-

being.

Path to Well-Being

This past month we created our own bird feeders and placed them

throughout the neighboring path of the Cross Seminole Trail. Our walking

club has checked on them throughout the month and apparently both the

birds and the local squirrels are fans of our bird feeders. We will be

crafting more as we stroll into spring. This month we continue engaging

with nature as we start our own Garden Club. The group will be planting

succulents, starting an herb garden, and maintaining our butterfly garden

in March. A green thumb is not required, anyone is welcome to join. This

month we'll also be taking part in the Kindness Rocks Project. Together

we'll paint rocks with designs and inspirational phrases then place

them around the local neighborhood for others to find and enjoy.
