The health benefits of walking are numerous, including reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and obesity. A good baseline for im-proving health and reducing the risk of chronic disease is 10,000 steps a day (2,000 steps is approximately 1 mile). Not everyone should start out trying to get 10K a day. Instead take a comfortable, gradual approach. Walking with other senior strollers provides the added bene-fits of a valuable support network and new friendships. We'll meet at designated walking areas on the first and third Wednesdays of every month at 9:00 a.m. — May thru September. A detailed brochure is available online www.slprec.org and at City Hall).

BYE BYE BIRDIE AT CHANHASSEN Wednesday, November 7, 2012 We begin our outing with a delicious lunch in the main theater at Chanhassen with your choice of entrée. Then sit back and enjoy this classic mu-sical "Bye Bye Birdie". When Elvis-like rock & roll star Conrad Birdie is about to be inducted into the Army, the teen nation is united by a national publicity contest where Birdie will bid a typical American teenage girl goodbye with an all-American kiss live on the Ed Sullivan Show. Kim MacAfee of Sweet Apple, Ohio wins the honor and all the telephones in her town are ringing off the hook. When Birdie arrives in Sweet Apple

people of all ages begin to swoon and the entire town is reeling. A satire done with the fondest affection, Chanhassen Dinner Theatres breathes new life into this Tony-Award winning Broadway musical of the ‘60s. The imaginative musical score includes such hits as: “Going Steady,” “Put On A Happy Face,“Telephone Hour,” “A Lot of Livin’ To Do” and “Kids.” Bye Bye Birdie and its theme of parents and teens will still resonate with audiences of today! Register by 10/7/12 WHEN: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 WHERE: Departs from SLP City Hall TIME: 10:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. FEE: $69/person (includes lunch, play, mo tor coach transportation & SLP tour scort)
