The Kindness Rock Project is a movement motivating people
across the US and now nine other countries around the world
to be happy, to be kind and to connect! Founder, Megan
Murphy, was the inspiration behind the concept which began
with her random placement of painted natural rocks on the
beaches of Cape Cod. Each had been decorated with a word
or phrase she hoped would send a positive message that
might make an unsuspecting someone smile or potentially
even change their perspective on life in a more optimistic and
encouraging way.
Today, the Kindness Rock Project continues to evolve with one simple goal of promoting random acts of
kindness in cities, towns and other locations across the country and around the world. Newtown Grant HOA
would like to implement the idea in our own community. Come enjoy this event filled with love and kindness
painting and planting these thoughtful messages throughout Newtown Grant! An event for the whole family to
enjoy!

A New Year brings a fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to
be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved.
Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative
year of delight and self-discovery.
Start the New Year with some mental restoration. Included are
meditation techniques, using breath to coordinate movement and
cleanse the body, body alignment as well as assisting. Yoga does
more than burn calories and tone muscles. It's a total mind-body
workout that combines strengthening and stretching poses with deep breathing and meditation or relaxation.
This class is good for ALL levels of students from beginners to the more advanced.

A new Book Club is starting at the Newtown Grant clubhouse and the first book
sounds intriguing. BYOBeverage and snacks to share. The book selected will be discussed in detail on
January 24th!
From Amazon: Anna Kerrigan, nearly twelve
years old, accompanies her father to visit Dexter Styles, a man who, she gleans, is crucial
to the survival of her father and her family. She is mesmerized by the sea beyond the house
and by some charged mystery between the two men.
Years later, her father has disappeared and the country is at war. Anna works at the
Brooklyn Naval Yard, where women are allowed to hold jobs that once belonged to men,
now soldiers abroad. She becomes the first female diver, the most dangerous and exclusive
of occupations, repairing the ships that will help America win the war. One evening at a
nightclub, she meets Dexter Styles again and begins to understand the complexity of her
father’s life, the reasons he might have vanished.
With the atmosphere of a noir thriller, Egan’s first historical novel follows Anna and Styles into a world
populated by gangsters, sailors, divers, bankers, and union men. Manhattan Beach is a deft, dazzling,
propulsive exploration of a transformative moment in the lives and identities of women and men, of America
and the world. It is a magnificent novel by the author of A Visit from the Goon Squad, one of the great writers
of our time.
Please read the book completely before the 24th!! We look forward to your participation.
Valentine’s Day is a time to celebrate the beauty of love and friendship. What better way than to watch a
romantic Disney favorite with your family or loved ones! Newtown Grant invites all the families, once a
month to join our family movie night. There will be snacks, refreshments, and a movie for the whole family to
enjoy! Guests are welcome!!
