Many of the victims are left tied up in shadeless areas without water or in hot, poorly ventilated areas such as a parked vehicle. The temperature inside a parked, poorly ventilated vehicle, even with windows partially open, can rapidly reach well over 100°F on a mild day. To ensure that your pet does not suffer from the heat see that he/she always has adequate ventilation, protection from the sun and plenty of fresh water in a non-spillable container. As well, realize that animals who have access to water and shade can still suffer from the heat. Take the appropriate precautions to ensure that your pet does not suffer from heat stroke. eight weeks, with the club beginning on Saturday, April 29. These eight weeks, as well as the normal six meetings, have also included two three-hour practices. In all aspects of the "Grand Finale", the members of the club had maximum input. This included decorations, food, costumes, guests, date, and the actual performances, especially our choreographed dance to Joseph and the Technicolour Dreamcoat. In this, all the actions and moves were thought up and executed by the members of the club. This was indeed a performance that was created chiefly by the members, but could not have been carried out without the help of the leader, and the youth leaders. The programme consisted of three plays. The first was "Things Change", with Missy McLellan, Maggie Hallman, and Sarah McLellan. The second play was "Road Trips", with. Kendra Fischer, Nicki Hallman, Leslie Baillie, and Tamara Diehl. The third play was "The Sorcerer's Apprentice Finds a Helping Hand", with Kerry Blake, Darlene Hemingway, Sara Speiran, Jill Speiran, Michelle DeWitt, Melissa Engel, Carla Hunt, Stacey Bowles, Alvin McLellan, Crystal Ahrens, Becky Davidson, and Jen Terpstra.
