July 2020 My last Email of 6/22 reported the latest update on our Club restarting and there is good news. The Yacht Club will reopen in August so we are planning an August 4th General Meeting @ 9:15. We are also planning on an August Dance on 8/22 and a Ladies Luncheon on 7/16. All of this is based on today’s situation. Please understand that this remains a very fluid environment. Things could change or worsen and we could revert back to a shut down. We are anxious as you all to get back to our “new normal”. I will send out an updated email just as soon as we know anything. Please be patient and stay tuned. Being new to Florida and the Cape, I thought I was ready for the Florida heat. But seriously?? I got in my Jeep the other day and the temperature registered 103 degrees. And it was still June! I’m all in favor of a bright and sunny Summer but what will July and August bring? My wife tells me to take deep breaths and it will all be good. Maybe with all of this sunshine, it will kill all of the remaining Covid and we can remove our masks. Don’t know about all of you, but my tan lines are becoming a little strange. We are all anxious to reconnect as one big group - to see old friends and to make new friends. In the meantime, stay in touch with your own groups. I’ve been told that several of them have restarted their pot luck get-togethers. Please stay safe, be supportive of your neighbor and be assured, this too will pass. And as always, should you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me or any of our Board Members.

Mediterranean diet refers to food and lifestyle choices that are based on the traditions of countries located on the Mediterranean Sea. This way of eating has been shown to help prevent certain conditions and improve outcomes for people who have chronic diseases, like kidney disease and heart disease.
What are tips for following this plan?
Lifestyle
Cook and eat meals together with your family, when possible.
Drink enough fluid to keep your urine clear or pale yellow.
Be physically active every day. This includes:
Aerobic exercise like running or swimming.
Leisure activities like gardening, walking or housework.
Get 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night.
If recommended by your health care provider, drink red wine in moderation. This means 1 glass a day for non pregnant women and 2 glasses a day for men. A glass of wine equals 5 ounces (150ml).
Reading food labels.
Check the serving size of packaged foods. For foods such as rice and pasta, the serving size refers to the amount of cooked product, not dry.
Check the total fat in packaged foods. Avoid foods that have saturated fat or trans fats.
Check the ingredients list for added sugars, such a corn syrup.

What’s In Season Now
If you haven’t visited this site, you should. It’s really interesting!
https://www.fdacs.gov/Consumer-Resources/Buy-Fresh-From-Florida/Crops-in-Season
Fresh is best. Consumers around the world look for and value the “Fresh From Florida” label. Knowing when items are in season is the key to knowing what to look for when shopping.
Why eat seasonally? Products are fresher and tastier, and nutritional value is optimized. Plus, eating seasonally encourages a diverse diet, is often more economical, and harmonizes with nature’s production cycle.
If you would like to print out a list of Florida agricultural products that are being harvested this month, select the link at the top of the page. Add the products to your grocery shopping list and enjoy fresh Florida produce at its peak.
These Florida items should currently be available in your grocery store; if you don’t see these items, ask your store manager.

Welcome to Cape Coral,
your own Slice of Paradise!
In 1967 the New Resident Club of
Cape Coral was established by
Helen Peck as a way to give new-
comers the opportunity to ex-
change ideas and form friend-
ships. The tradition continues
today in this, our 52nd year.
The three-year membership fee is
$60 per person and $120 per
couple.
Everyone joining will be members
of a group made up of those start-
ing that month. Commonly, the
groups number two to three doz-
en. Each group holds its own
activities and participates in
events held by the NRC as a
whole.
After three years, you will become
a non-voting lifetime member of
NRC. You are strongly encour-
aged to continue attending NRC
meetings, dances, activities and
participating in your group pot-
lucks.
The NRC holds a general meeting at
9:15 a.m. on the first Tuesday of each
month at the Yacht Club
Please join us at the general
meeting for coffee and a light
snack and get acquainted with
the most dynamic social group in
the Cape.
We welcome you!
