Warmer weather is right around the corner, so if you are going somewhere sunny over spring break, now is the time to start getting into shape with my fitness classes.\u00a0 Students, all my fitness classes are free!!\u00a0 Fit Camp is on MWF from 5-5:45 p.m., Circuit Training is on Tuesdays from 12-12:45 p.m. and Fusion Training is on Mondays and Thursdays from 12-12:45 p.m.\u00a0 For more information about my fitness classes or personal training, you can email me at keli.marston@maine.edu<\/p>\n

March skiing is the best time to get out and enjoy the snow!!\u00a0 There are ski trails at Nordic Heritage Center and Aroostook State Park for skiing and snowshoeing.\u00a0 Don\u2019t forget about Quoggy Jo near Fort Fairfield and Big Rock in Mars Hill if you enjoy downhill skiing.

I challenge you to \u201cEat your Greens\u201d for St. Patrick\u2019s Day.\u00a0 St. Patrick\u2019s Day is on March 17. This is a great way to get your kids to eat fruits and vegetables! I usually start with green apples and slice them on a plate.\u00a0 I put a fresh green grapes in a bowl.\u00a0 Then I will peel and slice kiwi, which is always a favorite.\u00a0 If the green pears are fresh and soft, I will buy some and slice those on a plate as well.\u00a0 For vegetables, I always do broccoli, which I steam first and then cook in the oven with some olive oil, salt, pepper and sharp cheese.\u00a0 Cucumber slices, celery sticks and green peppers with ranch dressing are always a hit.\u00a0 You could even do a spinach salad with almonds, walnuts and cranberries.\u00a0 It\u2019s all delicious and you will feel good making healthy choices.\u00a0 Enjoy eating your greens!<\/p>\n
