The History Behind Our Calendar

September 22nd, 2:00pm, A

Have you ever wondered why our calendar is set up the way

it is? How were the months named and why do some

months have a different amount of days? Dorothy will

explain the Roman calendar origins and the switch to a

more regulated solar calendar based entirely on Earth’s

revolutions around the sun

It's Raining, it's Pouring... Where's the Beer?

If You're Stuck in the Splash Zone, Come Partywith Us!

People tend to do some very interesting things when

preparing for Hurricane Season. Some take stock in

water, canned foods, flashlights and the world is

usually frantic. Florida, however, doesn't usually

start to panic until the letters start flying off the

signs. So as a true Florida tradition, we are hosting a

Two Chef's Hurricane Party. So break out your

windbreakers and rain boots to join us in the

auditorium for shelter as Chef prepares a menu that

is storm friendly, and won't be out grilling hotdogs

in 65mph winds! Hopefully, the weather

man doesn't turn it into a *true to nature* hurricane

party, but as always The Fountains will be prepared!

The first Oktoberfest was held in the year 1810 in

honor of the Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig's

marriage to Princess Therese von Sachsen-

Hildburghausen. Traditions have been since

occurring, with festivities ranging from September to

October, we couldn't miss the opportunity to don our

Lederhosen and Dirndl-dresses! Let's not forget the

most important part - the beer and food! With

traditional foods of wurst, brezeln & of course,

Oktoberfest Beer, we may not be sounding the 12

cannon salute to kick it off, but we will party like we

are in Munich! So roll up your stockings and come do

the polka to the St. Denis Variety Band on

September 21st at 2:00pm in the Auditorium. Prost!

SPECIAL EVENTS | THE BUZZ | OUT AND ABOUT AND MUCH MORE!

ThrivingRiley Gigstead, a 10 year old boy

with big ambitions, attended a week

long overnight camp at iD Tech

Camp. During his time at camp, it

allowed Riley to truly thrive and

come out of his shell. Having been

diagnosed with ADHD and Sensory

Processing Disorder, Riley never

saw challenges when it came to

technology.

He developed a love for coding at

school two years ago when they programed a class robot to do

simple tasks, like opening and closing it’s hand. That little spark set

a huge fire inside Riley, and he now has dreams to become a video

game creator and hopes to own his own corporation, similar to that

of Nintendo. During camp, Riley developed a base line coding for

two games, a number sequencing guessing game and a horoscope

generator. He joyfully played these games with the residents at The

Fountains at Boca Ciega Bay. With the field of technology ever-

growing and having unlimited outlets, we wanted Riley to see how

his passions could be utilized in other ways. For that, we asked our

Associate Executive Director, David Schupack, to show Riley the

behind the scenes of what it takes to make a building like The

Fountains run between the Wifi connections, telephones, computer

systems and how David plays a huge role in helping to maintain the

technology even from his position.

The Fountains held their annual Watermark for Kids Carnival to

raise funds to sponsor kids like Riley and raised over $300, with

families, friends, associates and people from the community in

attendance.

Path to Well-Being

Employee of the MonthEmployee of the Month

Margaret Bradley, a staple of our dining department, was nominated not

only because of the loyalty she shows as a watermark associate, but her

dedication to the residents in the springs is absolutely outstanding. Maggie

goes above and beyond her position as a dietary aide always assisting CDM

in multiple additional tasks. She always comes in to work with a positive

attitude, in uniform and always on time, literally to the minute of her

schedule daily, it's an art! On top of that, Maggie has been with us for over

30 years and just continues to learn and grow every day and if you have

seen her around, you certainly know that Maggie is one that knows how to

come from abundance. Congratulations, Maggie!

Fountains Funmakers' Performance - Wed, 9/13, 2pm, A

dramatic remaking of some of the best, and true, stories brought to

The Fountains Funmakers present their summer show, Mañana

Maintenance. We will be sure to send a work order invite to the

maintenance team!

Welcome Home Our Veterans from Honor Flight - 9/8 & 9/13

Honor Flight is an opportunity honoring our veterans for their

dedication and service to our country. They are taken on a free trip to

Washington DC where they spend a day visiting the various

memorials and monuments. Upon return, they are greeted by

volunteers who provide them with a joyful welcome. We will be

creating posters to welcome home the next Honor Flight on Friday,

9/8 and on Wednesday, 9/13, we'll join the crowd at the Airport and

celebrate these veterans as they arrive.

Refresher Bridge Group Interest Meeting - 9/13, 1pm, Ch

Haven't played Bridge in 10, 20, or even 30 years? That's ok! Our

Bridge group is looking for more players! Games can be arranged for

beginners or more advanced. These games are all for fun,

camaraderie, and mental stimulation. This meeting will discuss

options for playing on a regular basis. Come find out more!

Manic Monday's Race to End Alzheimer's - 9/25, 11am, A

To defeat Alzheimer's is a race against time itself. We are hosting

our own in-house wheelchair and walkers race where managers and

associates will not only be competing for your vote on who you

think will win the races, but also actually striving to win the race and

the final prize! All donations collected by votes from the jars at the

Front Desk will go towards Boca Goes Green for the Cure's team

efforts for the Walk to End Alzheimer's event.

Florida’s Fabulous Sea Shells - 9/29, 2pm, A

Florida is not only famous for the amount of sea shells and

hurricanes, but for the variety of types of sea shells. More kinds of

sea shells are found in Florida than any other state. June will share

the various types of shells that are found in our own backyard as well

as new and exciting information about shell discoveries around the

world.

WHAT'S HAPPENING

It's almost time for Resident Council Elections for the 2017-2018 year! Elections will be held in

October and we are looking for residents who would like an opportunity to serve on the board.

Please call ext. 4107 if you're interested or would like more information.

The Bay Breeze Cafe's Virtual Store has received a

makeover! You may have noticed that the café now

offers items such as Chips Ahoy Cookies, Cat Litter,

Cereal in both large size and individual portions,

mouth wash, and even laundry detergent! You can find

these items and more listed on the Virtual Store Order

Form, available in the café during regular hours. When

filling out the form, please place the quantity of each

item requested in the box next to the item and

complete the form before 2:30pm. Your order will be

available for pick up the next day, but you must pick

up items within 48 hours or a new form will be needed.

With weather so fickle, or you may not be able to get

out to the grocery store on the shuttle runs, let the Bay

Breeze Café service your basic needs in a pinch!

Convince and efficiency is our goal. Please see a Café

attendant with any questions.

As promised, the second half of our Extraordinary

Outing will be upon us! This time, we are taking an

afternoon safari ride through 260 acres of Florida

wilderness in early October to beat the heat. A rare

and unique experience, Safari Wilderness Ranch is a

world away from the hustle and bustle of civilization.

Here you feel the silence, enveloped by an open vista

of grazing animals surrounded by cypress domes and

bay trees. We'll get spectacular close-up encounters

with eland, red lechwe, Grant’s zebra, greater kudu,

barasingha, axis deer, water buffalo, scimitar-horned

oryx, nilgai, and more unique and endangered species

in large herds. Enjoy the fresh breath of safari air as

enormous birds soar overhead and the stage is set. If

you're interested in joining us on this unique and

memorable outing, please see Community Life for

more information & early sign up.

road with Dorothy, Tin Man, Cowardly Lion, Glenda and Chef

Oz to a fabulous Kansas home cooking Two Chefs Show, we

don't know how we will top this month! The community took

a behind the scenes tour of News Channel 8 and Inn Residents

organization to residents of The Springs. After a hot August,

we're ready for you September!
