Speaker Ann Klemen will describe and then demonstrate Tai Chi, and teach/guide everyone in practicing some simple Tai Chi movements. After the presentation, which will last about an hour, we will work together at planning movie nights, the movies, the dates - future speakers or short videos for Membership meetings, fundraising needs and possibilities, and all your other good ideas!
Upcoming events that we should begin planning for:
- The Coralville 4th of July Parade that we often walk in with Physicians for Social Responsibility
- The commemoration of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima August 6th
- September 11th - Maybe some of us should write editorials for the Gazette
