Happy Father’s Day to every dad, step-dad, grandpa, uncle, brother, or any person who nurtures another with love and grace and strength! We celebrate all of those who selflessly give so others can grow. The Kroc sends you all the love on this day! 💙 ———— "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." – 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 . . . . . #kroccda #FathersDay #HappyFathersDay #Dad #Love 
June 19, 1865 Also known as Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, Liberation Day, and Emancipation Day, Juneteenth honors the official end to slavery in the United States and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. It is commemorated on the anniversary date of the June 19, 1865 announcement in Texas proclaiming freedom from slavery. Today, celebrations have continued across the United States into the 21st century and typically include prayer and religious services, speeches, educational events, family gatherings and picnics, and festivals with music, food, and dancing. The day is also celebrated outside the United States, with organizations in a number of countries using the day to recognize the end of slavery and to celebrate the culture and achievements of African Americans. Today marks an important moment in history, a moment of necessary progress and change. Happy Juneteenth to all of our African American friends and family! We are with you ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 ————————— Did you know? Also in 1865, across the pond in East London, William Booth officially founded the organization that would become The Salvation Army. What a good year! . . . . . #kroccda #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #JubileeDay #LiberationDay #EmancipationDay

It’s National Donut Day! 🍩 Today we honor the female Salvation Army officers called “Doughnut Lassies” who served the troops during the War. To this day, veterans often share how The Salvation Army served them or their fellow soldiers during the hardest days of war offering fresh donuts and coffee as a way to boost morale, the spiritual nourishment more impactful than the physical nourishment. The Salvation Army serves everyone, but these interactions with our greatest heroes are extra meaningful. Check out the video to learn more about the history of National Donut Day! . . . . #kroccda #DonutDay #NationalDonutDay #DoughnutLassies #TheSalvationArmy @salvationarmynorthwest @salvationarmyus @salvationarmywest #FightForGood #DoingTheMostGood 
HIIT: High Intensity Interval Training Sounds kinda scary doesnt it? It’s not as bad as it sounds! In fact, this could be the perfect addition to your workout routine this summer to really boost your metabolism and increase your heart health! Diversifying your workouts has always been an important method to reach your wellness goals, and Aqua HIIT is a great option to try. Aquatic exercise is already proven to be a very beneficial way to work out, and Aqua HIIT offers a form of interval training that alternates short periods of intense anaerobic exercise with less intense recovery periods that makes an excellent cross training option to your routine, with all the pros of being in the water. HIIT can be a time-efficient strategy to get the benefits in a shorter amount of time compared with longer bouts of traditional cardio, all with a tremendous heart health bonus! The best part is YOU decide what the best level of intensity is for you, so you can work at your own pace in our classes and still walk away feeling great. Jules from our Aquatics Department is here to share a bit more about our new Aqua HIIT drop in class with a sneak peek of what the class is like!

Happy Memorial Day Kroc Fans! 🇺🇸 Today we honor the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice serving this country. We honor their memory, their families, and the lasting impact they have on us all through their service. Memorial Day was originally known as “Decoration Day”, a proclamation issued in 1868 by General John Logan, the commander of the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) which was composed of the Union Army (U.S. Army), Union Navy (U.S. Navy), and the Marines who served in the American Civil War. Decoration Day was a tradition to decorate national cemeteries of those lost in the war. “The 30th of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land,” General Logan proclaimed. On the first Decoration Day, General James Garfield, the 20th US President, made a speech at Arlington National Cemetery, and 5,000 participants decorated the graves of the 20,000 Civil War soldiers buried there. After World War II, Decoration Day slowly transitioned to be known as Memorial Day to commemorate American military who died in all wars, but was not declared the official name by federal law until 1968. Today, Memorial Day remains as a day of remembrance, through parades, memorials, visiting cemeteries, an honoring their loved ones. Thank you to the brave Americans of our past! ❤️🤍💙 . . . . . #kroccda #MemorialDay #DecorationDay

Look at these super cool creations from our Homeschool Art class called Cultivating Creativity for students aged 7–9! To go along with the theme, these students have been studying the differences between impressionistic, expressionistic, and realistic art. 🎨 🖼 🧑🎨 The kids learned about the telltale trademarks of impressionistic paintings and with the help of plenty of examples and references, created their own impressionistic inspired piece! The purpose of Impressionism is a style that seeks to capture a feeling or experience rather than to achieve an accurate depiction (think, Monet or Van Gogh). “It was fun teaching them this because it took all of them a bit of time to wrap their brain around an artist choosing not to paint realistically,” shared Christina Hull, local artist and Kroc Homeschool teacher. “Kids are often programmed to think that realistic equals better in art. So we went though a ton of examples, but it wasn’t until they actually started painting this way that they really enjoyed it and saw the value.” Later on in the course, the students took their sketchpads outside to sketch things as they see them, to try and capture a realistic likeness of something. Nature is a perfect subject! Who knew art could be so challenging yet so fun? We love seeing what these kids come up with! . . . . . #kroccda #HomeschoolArt #KrocArt #Homeschool #HomeschoolProgram #KrocHomeschool #HomeschoolClasses #Impressionism #Realism @christinahullart
