Join Ramsey Parks and Recreation in celebrating the 53rd Earth Day by cleaning up public spaces in Ramsey. This clean-up is community-wide, so you decide which street, trail or park you help beautify. Individuals, families, businesses and groups of all sizes are welcome to participate, and the City will provide trash bags, gloves and if needed, vests.

QIGONG MEDITATION FOR HEALTH
Thursdays, 10:30-11:30 a.m. | Registration is Not Required
Alexander Ramsey Room | 7550 Sunwood Drive NW | Ramsey, MN
Qigong (chee gong) is a holistic system of exercise that aims to strengthen, stretch, balance and coordinate the body. More subtly, it ingratiates the mind, body, emotions and spirit. The movements are slow, coordinated and rhythmic, synchronizing breath, movement and focus. It is deceptively simple yet can be profoundly healing. Instructor Peggy Brown, a Spring Forest Qigong Certified Practice Group Leader, leads this practice group and is also a Reiki Master Practitioner and has been working with energy since 2008.
Due to occasional time and room changes, if you are interested in attending this class, please contact Peggy Brown at 763-753-3705 beforehand.
Stop by again soon and see what is new.
