December 2014 NewsletterWhat´s New at Savon
◄ Back to What´s New At Savon - Monthly Newsletter Home Page Quote Of The Month: Anyone who believes that men are the equal of women has never seen a man trying to wrap a Christmas present. (Author Unknown) Congratulations To: A Year End Message From Our C.E.O. Clayton Parker Jr.:
These insurance companies have the capital and means to make what they are offering to its‘ customers attractive, however in the end people are finding that it is a far inferior product to what Savon offers. The good news is that many members are realizing this and returning to Savon! We pride ourselves in our customer service and we will go to any reasonable extreme to work with our members and make them happy. Our phones are monitored by a customer service representative 7 days a week, (and yes… I personally helped one of our members on Thanksgiving Day while I was watching football at home). For those of you that may be facing financial challenges, we have re-instituted our monthly payment option and the 50/50 option. The early renewal option has also been a great success as it has saved us on printing and postage and we have been able to pass those savings along to the members that take advantage of the early renewal offer. At the request of many of our members, we are exploring the possibility of aDding an optional vision and hearing plan to our portfolio and we will keep you posted as progress is made. Our Nominate Your Dentist program is going great and with your help we have been able to recognize the providers that you feel have done an outstanding job of taking care of your oral health. I would personally invite, (beg, grovel, implore, request or whatever word best describes it) you to visit to our page on the Better Business Bureau and give us a review. Please note: This review is for the dental plan not the dentists. The Better Business Bureau is a strong marketing tool for us and we have had an A+ rating since they started their rating system. In the past the only thing the BBB allowed consumers to do was file a complaint against a business. They now allow you to give reviews and express their feelings (good or bad) about a business. Please take a few minutes and give us a review. It will be greatly appreciated. This has been a snapshot of Savon for 2014 and in closing, I would like to wish each and every one of our members and their families the happiest of holidays and a fantastic and prosperous 2015. Stay safe, stay healthy and stay with Savon, “your dental plan every step of the way!” To Your Health With Jourdin Hendershot:
Until next year… Have a safe, healthy and happy holiday! If you have questions you would like to discuss with Jourdin, feel free to drop her an email by clicking here. Grandma's Kitchen With Grandma C.:
Such a simple recipe and a favorite among the kids! *Some people may like it sweeter; if so, add ½ cup of sugar dissolved in a little water and stir. **Can be served with Orange Sherbet in it as well. Just add a few scoops to the punch right before serving! Happy Holidays to all, and Keep Smiling! And remember, if it looks and smells good, eat it!! If you have a recipe that you would like to share with Grandma C., drop her an email by clicking here. Keeping Fit With Clayton "TR" Parker
In February I touched on the importance of staying hydrated in cold weather just as you would in hot weather. (Cold, Warm or Hot Weather, Hydration is still the key, FEB2014). The important thing there is to make sure that you drink fluids regularly during your workout! Remember that just because it is cold outside does not mean that you cannot get dehydrated. March was another flu season and a bad one nonetheless. It challenged my masculinity as I tried to use the “tough guy treatment” sweat it out. Let‘s just say that… ummm… it did not work. (Don‘t “Sweat It Out” This Flu Season, MAR2014). April was a special segment for those of you dealing with flat feet. (Have Flat Feet- You Can Work-out Without The Pain, APR2014). I got some great feedback from some of you that have flat feet. I hope that the arch supports worked for you! I would really like to hear from you again and know if they helped. As the weather warmed in May and June, I gave you some tips on staying cool while working out, (Water Workout Will Help You Stay Cool and Fit, May2014) and how adrenaline can hide the symptoms of dehydration. (Adrenaline Can Mask Dehydration, June2014) As summer peaked in July, I dug deep in my arChives of notes from my Athletic Training classes and presented you with an acronym called “R.I.C.E”. This acronym is used as tool to help you treat your minor sports injuries. (RICE Is The Best Way To Treat Your Minor Sports Injuries, July2014). So, let‘s test you. Whoever emails me and can correctly state what the "R.I.C.E." acronym stands for will be entered into a drawing to get either 2 Months Free (If you are a Savon Member) or a $10.00 Starbucks Gift Card. Let me know which one you would like when you email me. If you are a current member, please include your member ID number. Good Luck! August brought us to the topic of music and how your choice in music can influence your workout. It is a proven fact that when you listen upbeat music you will workout harder and if you listen to slower music your workout will be slower. (Your Music Choice Can Affect Your Workout, Aug2014) September and October both consisted of me presenting my case and pleading with you all to not throw calisthenics out of your workout. I think I presented a fair argument and won you all over with it. Just remember that calisthenics will not only give you a workout, but they will condition you as well. (Don‘t Throw Calisthenics Away Part I, Sept2014, Don‘t Throw Calisthenics Away Part II, Oct2014) In November I wrapped my 2014 Keeping Fit Series by addressing our new workout recruits by giving you tips for getting through your first set of workouts. (Surviving the First Workout, Nov2014). Remember to pace yourself, don‘t max out your set, stop when tired and stretch out before and after your workout. As I officially wrap up 2014, I want to thank you all for reading. I invite everyone to join me again in 2015 as we continue to embark on the endeavor of staying fit and healthy Until next year, Stay Fit, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong and have a safe and wonderful holiday season!
