With Mother’s Day just around the corner, “Mom” is definitely the word at the spa lately. In our office we were talking about Mother’s Day and Elizabeth and Jennifer both shared some great Glen Ivy memories of their moms.
“My mom and I come to Glen Ivy every few months to spend quality time together – in fact, we just got some one-on-one time here on Monday! While we were relaxing she commented on how she finds herself at Glen Ivy for all sorts of different reasons: personal getaways when she has a day off work, Mother/Daughter days with me, and one special memory she recalled from Mother’s Day two years ago when my brothers and dad joined us at the spa. We reflected a bit on that happy, fun day and she said spending time at a place she loves with the people she loves most is a memory she will cherish forever.” – Elizabeth F.
“Just a few weeks ago I brought my mom and future mother-in-law to the Hot Springs for a relaxing Spa Day before the Big Day. We got a Cabana and we were so thankful to have a Cabana Concierge taking care of all the small details so we could just sit, soak and enjoy each others’ company – quite a contrast to the wedding planning, that’s for sure! Weeks leading up to the wedding can usually be very stressful so it was nice to carve out a full day for time together. We had such a great time laughing and chatting, and really celebrating the fact that our families will soon be joined. It was the perfect way to kick off the one month countdown to the Big Day!” – Jennifer S.

It’s the 40th anniversary of Earth Day and here at Glen Ivy we try and go green whenever possible. Going green helps to reduce your impact on the environment and if you aren’t already doing your part, today is the perfect day to start! Here are some little ways to go green but that will make a big change!
Paperless Bills. Do all of your billing online. Just check with your bill companies to sign up!
Turn Off Lights When You Leave a Room. Try opening up those blinds or curtains to let natural light in.
Fix Leaky Faucets. You would be surprised how much water gets wasted by a leaky faucet. Another way to conserve water–turn off water while you brush your teeth.
Get a Reusable Water Bottle. Grab an inexpensive reusable water bottle instead of buying plastic disposable bottles. Just purchase a water filter for your refrigerator or sink and you’ll be set! Check out The Story of Bottled Water for some interesting facts!
Unplug Unused Appliances/Electronics. Try plugging all electronics into a power strip and switch the whole thing off when they aren’t in use. This helps prevent “phantom” energy use and can save you up to $200 a year!
Take Shorter Showers. Not only will this lower your water bill, but it will lower your heating bill too!
Purchase Energy Efficient Appliances. Even just switching to one helps! Just look for the “energy star” label.
Install Compact Fluorescent Bulbs. CFL’s consume 75% less electricity and last up to 10 times longer!
Use Reusable Bags. Pick some up bags you can use over and over again for shopping trips.
Recycle Electronics. Donate or recycle when it’s time to say bye-bye to your electronics. E-waste contains mercury and other toxins that are hazardous to the Earth.
Remember, even the smallest actions can have lasting environmental effects.
