Fall听New Member Welcome听鈥� October 25

New DPMG members were treated to coffee, tea and treats while they mingled and viewed onscreen trivia questions and answers with the Executive and Outreach Committee members.听

New this Summer...

Summer Softball

DPMG members were on the ball diamond over many a lunch hour last summer playing against teams from other Dalhousie faculties, units, and groups. We might not have been the team to beat (or maybe we were because a lot of other teams did just that ;P), but I think if there was an award for best team spirit, we'd have been a shoe-in :). Keep your eye out for a notice in the spring about the 2017 season.

Friday Fitness

Another DPMG premiere event, is our Friday group fitness program. We basically get together over the Friday noon hour in the Studley gym, with our professional trainer from the Dalplex, yadda yadda yadda ...and then we're all sore on the weekend ;) But really, if you're interested; we do customizable cardio & strength exercises, often in high-intensity interval circuits, and everybody has the opportunity to get a great workout. We had so much interest for this that it filled to capacity in days & the wait list was a couple dozen, so I'm investigating the possibility of hosting two sessions in the winter; keep your eye out for a notice about that.
