Legacy at Cranberry Landing

The arrival of spring brings more daylight,
so we can enjoy the energy that is no
longer needed to fight off drowsiness.
Increased sunlight also triggers the release of serotonin, a
brain chemical that helps us feel happier. Warmer
temperatures mean we’re more likely to be active and social,
which releases endorphin, the hormone that minimises pain
and boosts mood. Be sure to share a few laughs with friends,
it's great for your health! Happy March!
We made some tasty treats for our backyard friends in this frigid
weather. Many of the natural seed sources that birds prefer flower
in summer. Winter’s a tough time to find naturally-occurring
food. Food types are limited, and birds need the extra
calories. Predators are extra hungry, too. When food’s hard for our
feathered friends to find, it’s harder for squirrels, mice & raccoons.
Help protect birds by placing food sources near natural coverage to
keep birds fed while offering a place to hide. The best foods for
backyard birds during this tough time have high fat and oil content
like: black oil sunflower, peanuts, suet mixes with fruit or seeds,
peanut butter and nutritious seed mixes all make for happy bellies!

We're excited to welcome
March! Hello Spring! Yes,
spring is finally on its way
and the cold weather that we
have been subjected to for
what now seems like an
eternity will soon be a thing
of the past. Say hello to
sunshine, vitamin D and
longer, fuller days! Women’s History Month, the month of March is
dedicated to remembering and reflecting on all the contributions
women have made to our society, especially in terms of equality.
March is the perfect reason to celebrate girl power over the years.
Let's not forget about Saint Patrick’s Day! Millions of people all
around the world celebrate their heritage all whilst enjoying
typical Irish festivities and having an awesome time. March is the
period in which animals awaken from long months of hibernation.
It's the perfect time to enjoy the beauty of nature!
Why WeLove March! What you need to know about
Coronavirus also known as COVID-
19. The virus has spread fast since it first
appeared in December 2019. Some
common symptoms include: feeling short
of breath, having a cough that gets more
severe over time, a low-grade fever that
gradually increases in temperature and
other common flu-like symptoms like
runny and stuffy nose. Take precautions
to protect yourself. Make sure you, and
the people around you, follow good
respiratory hygiene by covering your
mouth and nose with your bent elbow or
tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then
dispose of the used tissue immediately
and wash your hands! If you start to
experience any of these symptoms seek
medical care immediately.
Path to Well-Being
You all know the Great Patsy!! How fun is this incredible lady? Her pizzazz
and spunk, her energy and humble kindness. There are many reasons we
love having her around. We do broadway aerobics, we get flashy and we
get dancy! Once a month we get to enjoy Patsy's company and everyone
always looks forward to her visit. This month we're going to enjoy a fun
Country Music Themed aerobics program. Patsy says it's going to be a foot-
stompin', thigh-slappin' good time. The music is sure to get even those who
don't usually listen to country music to have a blast! She's bringing cowboy
hats and bandanas to add to the fun. You won't want to miss it! Come join
us for a Wild, Western workout with Patsy in the Balcony Garden Lounge on
Friday, March 13th at 9:30am. It's sure to be a great time!
