ET CETERA
Did anyone else notice the
plume of smoke off to the east
around 6:30 Saturday evening? It
seemed fairly close so I, figura-
tively, put on my press hat, and
we drove off to investigate. We
found out distances can be
deceiving. The smoke was from
a field fire just north of the Cran-
brook Road between Brussels
and Cranbrook. We have been
being cautioned nearly every
day by the media to be careful
due to the very dry conditions
we are experiencing, and we
wondered if perhaps a spark
from the harvesting of this field
caused the fire.
Services will resume at
Londesborough United Church
on Sunday, August 7.
I saw a performance of "Our
Beautiful Sons" recently. It is a
heart -wrenching production
which clearly illustrates the
agony of families who have
members abroad trying to make
our world a better place for eve-
ryone. We all need to recognize,
too, that all theatre productions
are not meant to entertain but
some are intended to touch the
heart and educate. Do try to take
in a performance of this play if
only to get an appreciation for
the sacrifice others make for us.
HAPPY GANG SENIORS
On June 29, the Londesbor-
ough Happy Gang Seniors held
their annual summer meeting at
Londesborough United. The
attending members enjoyed
salad plate pot luck meal and
fellowship.
They had a guest speaker that
afternoon, Jay McFarlan, who is
Chairperson of Rural Nutrition
and Exercise, a specific area of
the Gateway Centre of Excel-
lence for Rural Health.
The goal of 'Gateway' is to
improve the health of rural resi-
dents. Gateway strives to
develop and implement
research strategies by collabo-
rating with community health
centres, rural health profession-
als, academia, and the commu-
nity for residents in southwest-
ern Ontario.
Gateway's health studies
strive to help rural residents
understand their specific health
circumstances and make sug-
gestions for their daily living
such as, of course, exercise and
also nutrition awareness and
monitoring of blood pressure,
etc.
Research has discovered that
persons in rural areas suffer sig-
nificantly higher rates of heart
disease, stroke, some forms of
cancer, chronic lung disease,
diabetes and mild cognitive
impairment than do their urban
counterparts.
Gateway's centre in Seaforth
is dedicated to the advancement
of rural health teaching in the
Huron -Perth -Bruce -Grey area.
Jay and nine other associ-
ated authorities in the field of
rural health feel that improving
the health of rural residents will
ultimately reduce rates of
chronic disease, strain on the
health system and improve the
lives of rural folk.
Jay explained that the cen-
tre supports rural health profes-
sionals in conducting relevant
research, implementing studies,
networking with other profes-
sionals and attracting young
professionals to the area who
are interested in this field of
study. Jay would like to see the
office in Seaforth become the
world headquarters for this par-
ticular area of health study.
This means attracting research
resources/funds. Gateway is a not
for profit centre and the only
community driven rural health
research institute in Canada.
Gateway was one of three recipi-
ents of proceeds from the Home-
town Heroes Hockey Game
recently played in Goderich. The
office is in the former Seaforth
Creamery at the intersection of
Main St. and Railway St. For more
information one can call 519-600-
5195 or through the internet at
gatewayruralhealth.ca.
The lifestyle of rural residents
has changed considerably in the
last 100 years. We've become far
more sedentary and exercise is
encouraged more and more by
health professionals. With this in
mind, the Ontario Seniors Com-
munities Fund donated funds to
the centre in 2015 for a new idea
in camping called Grand Sparks.
For the 2016 camp, a grant was
received from the Healthy Kids
Community Challenge for
Huron County provided the
camp promoted water as the
first beverage of choice - not too
tough to do when exercising.
This is a one week half day
camp for grandparents and their
grandchildren. From 9 to 12
each morning, the family mem-
bers are encouraged and
coached to do a variety of out-
door activities together. Activi-
ties include canoeing, yoga, hik-
ing trails, biking, a high ropes
course and a forest obstacle
course. Jay remarked that the
older participants are very wary
that first morning but end the
day and week with smiles. The
activities do have a managed
risk, and trained safety folk are
in attendance. The Maitland Val-
ley Authority made a presenta-
tion this year about the multi-
tude of trails in the area.
At noon everyone participates
in preparing a shared lunch
which comes with a daily nutri-
tion lesson.
The adults in particular chal-
lenge their comfort zone for the
benefit of doing something new
with their grandchildren. The
young participants learn basic
decision making keeping the
safety and enjoyment of their
grandparents in mind. The hope
is that this camp will become a
lasting memory for the families
as well.
The centre leases time at the
end of June for their camp from
The Edge of Walton Camp which
is located at the Walton Race-
way. Twenty-five people partici-
pated this summer at a cost of
$100.00 each.
A survey will be conducted
with participants at summer's
end to evaluate whether the
idea of exercise and better nutri-
tion has taken root.
It was an interesting presenta-
tion for the Happy Gang mem-
bers who will meet again on
September 27.
