MOVIE NIGHT AT SUN VILLAGE FEATURING GIFTED Did you know puzzles are an excellent activity for keeping your brain sharp? When you build puzzles, both sides of your brain are forced to communicate and work together, thus increasing cognitive function. You also give your occipital lobe a workout, which is the part of the brain that matches colors and shapes. Puzzles challenge your dexterity, spatial reasoning, and logic. Nothing teaches you to focus and concentrate on a task like finding the right piece to go into the puzzle! And puzzles are just plain fun! Beat the heat, socialize and exercise your brain with our SUMMER PUZZLE PALOOZA! Join us as we take on the challenge of Ravensburger s magnificent 9,000-piece Underwater Paradise puzzle. The fun continues until the jigsaw puzzle is completed. You may participate for as much or as little time as you wish. Hope to see you there! BLOOD DRIVE YOU can help save lives by donating blood.
