March 2017 Events in Chatham, NJ: Your Treasure is Within


Theatrical readings, colorful costumed dancers and spectacular vocal performances bring to a close our creative expression quarterly theme with a focus on performance and honoring our inner treasure – our self-worth. With so many demands on our time these days, it’s easy to always put others first and forget to care of ourselves. Also as we get older, retire from work and in some cases caretaking, we may forget our sense of value – our self-worth. A large part of nurturing the spirit of life is providing opportunities for purpose.

This month we will put an even greater focus on identifying our continued purpose and self-worth by performing purposeful activities, reminiscing and creating opportunities to treasure ourselves. Motivational speaker Anne Naylor offers these tips to help you treasure yourself: Treasure your thoughts with kindness – nurture your thoughts of gratitude and appreciation. Treasure your feelings and emotions – observe and use them as your guide. Treasure your body – treat it well with exercise, nourishment, rest, joy and laughter. Treasure your spirit – breathe, meditate and enjoy the goodness in your life. We hope you all enjoy the treasure of your wonderful self.

Please join us as we dramatically embrace performance throughout March with our weekly drama club, outings to live theatrical performances and our Oscar-themed party. Celebrate the Irish culture in grand style with our Saint Patrick’s Day event filled with food, fun and, of course, dancing! Honor yourself and recognize Your Treasure is Within this month at Juniper Village!

Our fabulous March 2017 events in Chatham, NJ at Juniper Village at Chatham include our:

§  The Larks Sing for a lovely afternoon enjoying the chorus as this fabulous group of women sing your favorite standards and popular show tunes with great style and harmony, so don’t miss one of our most popular shows on March 9th at 11:00 am.

§  You Sing Karaoke to join in the fun and let your inner star emerge as you sing your favorite hits by artists like Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Michael Jackson and more; this is a must try for anyone who loves to sing on March 9th at 4:00 pm.

§  St. Patrick’s Day Celebration because everyone's a wee bit Irish on St Patrick's Day, so we will mix and match a few of our favorite Irish treats and raise our Guinness to all things Irish; join us for a traditional Irish lunch at 11:30 and stay to hear Paul & Pals entertain us all at 3:30 on March 17th.

§  Belly Dancing Performance because belly dance is an expressive dance which emphasizes complex movements of the torso, and traditional belly dancing is essentially a spiritual movement, and the costumes are colorful consisting of scarves, coins, and veils, and this ancient art is still very popular today as a form of expression, a link to one’s heritage and as a great form of exercise, so come on and give it a try on March 26th at 2:30 pm.

We look forward to sharing our March 2017 events in Chatham, NJ at Juniper Village at Chatham with you as Your Treasure is Within.
