The attendance of owners at the monthly Craig Bay Social Committee meetings has been reduced in recent times and we wondered if our name as a “Committee” makes it appear like a closed door. It does not operate in the same way as other Committees, which have limited number of volunteers i.e. Beach Club Subcommittee. Our social group was originally known was EATS, which meant Events [...]
Beginner Tai Chi Update
Beyond Beginner Tai Chi THIS CLASS IS CURRENTLY CLOSED TO NEW PARTICIPANTS This beginner class started in January 2019 so we are far into learning the 108 moves. It would be extremely difficult for a new beginner to start at this point, so we will not be accepting any new students 🙁 Perhaps in the future we may be offering another beginner class.

Your Brain and Singing: Why Singing in a Choir Makes You Happier The following is an edited excerpt from an article* published by Choral Director Magazine, Author Jaime Babbitt Any of us who have sung in choirs know all too well the joy it brings not just the audience, but also the choir members themselves.

2019 WMPG Year-in-Review
The Spring session was dominated by 2 major projects. The first was the clearing of the Northwest Bay Pathway and the removal of all the deadfall to greatly reduce the fire hazard. This process had all hands on deck for 5 weeks. The second was the reclamation of the xeriscape pond system to return it to the original condition. This involved the removal of weeds, boulders and muck. For those who remember the putting [...]
