Parents and their chil- dren can download the new Brown Cow Kids Club activity booklet for free by visiting www. dairygood- ness. ca By completing the activi- ties within the booklet, parents and their children can uncover a secret code word allowing them entry into a contest, winning a year's supply of free chocolate milk just in time for the new school year. The Brown Cow Kids Club booklet is full of chocolate milk recipes, word puzzles and activities reinforcing the message that chocolate milk is just as good for you as white milk "As the summer winds down, kids get antsy, so parents are always on the lookout for new and fun activities," says registered dietitian Fran Berkoff. Nutritional analysis proves chocolate milk is as nutritious as white milk, containing the same 15 essential nutrients found in white milk with no addi- tional sugar than an equal amount of unsweetened orange juice. The contest is open to residents of Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. The draw date is Sept. 5.

Concerned family members contacted Huron OPP as the canoeists were overdue and had not taken any food or water. Huron OPP utilized ATV's, bikes and members on foot, enlisting the assistance of the public and a private airplane.
