Contact Keith Roulston, 519-523-4792 or bring to The Citizen. tfn Wanted Exeter native Tim Long has reached the pinnacle of success in the television industry, writing and producing for the hit U.S. animated television program The Simpsons, as well as having served as head writer for David Letterman’s late- night talk show and as writer on other major network programs. This accomplished writer and producer hasn’t forgotten his small- town roots, however. Despite being busy with preparation for the release of the first Simpsons feature film, Long has made time to donate three personalized items for the 18th Annual Conservation Dinner to be held at the South Huron Recreation Centre on April 19. Skinner’s Sense of Snow is one of the most famous episodes of The Simpsons written by the Exeter native. That popular episode tells the story of a snowstorm so severe the students aren’t able to leave school. The episode is rooted in his true-life experiences growing up in the Ausable Bayfield watershed. “Skinner’s Sense of Snow was based on an experience I had as a kid in Exeter,” Long said. Long has agreed to donate an autographed copy of his script for that episode, an autographed DVD of The Simpsons and a Simpsons T- shirt, also signed by Long. The three items promise to be some of the popular bid items at the important charitable gala that raises funds for accessible trails, fish stocking, maintenance of six commemorative woods sites and conservation education. The Conservation Dinner is hosted by the Exeter Lions Club and Ausable Bayfield Conservation Foundation. “Tim Long’s contributions to this year’s conservation dinner really add some excitement and they show he hasn’t forgotten his old home- town,” said Ernie Miatello, chair of the conservation dinner committee. Last year the conservation dinner set a fundraising record of more than $40,000 and the committee is working hard trying to match last year’s success. For information on how to donate to the conservation dinner, or to see if there are any tickets still available, phone 519-235-2610 or 1-888-286- 2610. Did you know that 23 per cent of Huron County residents are obese, 22 per cent smoke cigarettes, and almost half are not physically active enough for health benefits? “Take Heart Huron is a community group that aims to improve the health of local residents,” says health promoter Alycia Collins. “We are part of the larger Ontario Heart Health Network.” Take Heart Huron receives more than $50,000 each year from the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion, to be used within Huron County. “We support community-based health programs that encourage healthy eating, physical activity and smoke-free living,” Collins says. Smoking, poor diet and lack of exercise put you at greater risk for some chronic diseases. The list includes heart disease, diabetes and some forms of cancer. Take Heart Huron is responsible for the Healthy School Initiative, the Turn Off the Screens Challenge, and many other programs related to physical activity, healthy eating and smoke-free living. Each year, Take Heart Huron also gives funding to community projects that promote healthy lifestyles, such as community kitchens. Take Heart Huron also sponsored the insertion of the new Canada’s Food Guide into this month’s edition of Focus News Magazine. “Canada’s Food Guide is a basic tool for every kitchen in Huron County,” says Deb Campbell, professional home economist and chair of the Take Heart Huron Steering Committee. “We are pleased to make this happen, as a step towards a healthier population.” Right now, Take Heart Huron is looking for new members for our steering committee. The committee meets three times per year. It includes people from different backgrounds, experiences and interests. Members represent hospitals, schools, recreation centers, and other not-for-profit groups. Each member shares a common interest: improving the health of Huron County residents. If you are interested in becoming a steering committee member, or for more information on the programs, contact the Take Heart Huron co- ordinator. Call her at 519-482-3416 or 1-877-837-6143. Take Heart Huron strives to improve health of residents Huron County Library will be applying for a Trillium grant to improve accessibility at the new Blyth Library branch. County councillors were told at the April 4 meeting that a letter had been received from the county’s accessibility advisory committee asking that the entrance to the building, located on Queen Street, be made wheelchair accessible. Director of cultural services and county librarian Beth Ross said that the problem would be solved with the installation of automated doors. Huron East councillor Joe Seili, chair of the cultural services and seniors committee said that there had been consultations with North Huron facilities staff, as well as with Theron Kramer of the Trillium Foundation. As a result of these, the county library will submit one application on behalf of all libraries for a Trillium grant to install automated door openers. The participating libraries should be otherwise accessible. Ross will contact the eligible libraries and submit an application on their behalf at no cost to the county.
