Clinton News-Record, 1984-10-31, Page 6PAGE 6 —CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESLAY, OCTOBER 31, 1984 Myth Roads cost extra X3,500 By Anne Narejko BLYTH - The paving of village streets has cot the village an extra $3,500 because of a typing error on the part of the contractors. According to Blyth Clerk Larry Walsh, the extra costs occurred on the paving of Gypsy Lane and Dinsley Street to Westmoreland Street. The tender received by council stated that the work would required 160 tons of asphalt, when it actually required 274 tons. Burns Ross, of B.M Ross and Associates was present at the October meeting, and explained to council that a typing error had been made. Council expressed their riiccaticfantinn hPfnrra ravincr the engineering bill of $1,909.50, by saying that an error of this type should have been found. Sections' of Hamilton Street, Cay sy Lane, Drammond Street West and Westrrforeland Street West were part of the 1984 road program which cost $47,027. Clerk Walsh also told council that he has contacted Ross Jackson of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications concerning additional funds to pave another portion of Drummond Street and Coombs Street. So far no word has been received and it appears that the work may be postphoned until next year. Land bought for parking BLYTH - The Board of the Blyth and District Community Centre has purchased land at the north end of the arena. At their October meeting, council advanced the board $100 as a down payment and $7,200 for payment of the land, with the property to be registered in the name of the Village of Blyth. An additional $7,000 will be needed for the development of the land. This extra land will be used for parking facilities, to accommodate snow removal and an extra entrance to the arena. The Arena Board was given a $4,615 grant from council to assist with the total project cost of $14,200. The sum of.$2,315 will come from the 1984 budget and the balance of $2,300 will be taken from the 1985 budget. In other business, council donated $1,500 to the Clinton Public Hospital. According to Clerk Walsh, this is a 50 per cent increase over last year's donation of $1,000.

Mrs. Cappelli teaches both Trim 'N Dance and Trim -A -Size on Mon- day and Thursday evenings. The two BodyFit programs give a new meaning to exercise. ( Anne Narejko photo) ody Fit programs offer a different way to exercise By Anne Narejko BLYTH. - Fitness is defined in the dic- tionary as "the state of being fit; ap- propriateness; sound bodily health." To get your body into tip-top shape takes hours of pumping iron at the gym and the will power to starve oneself, right? Wrong. BodyFit programs offer a simple, yet ef- fective alternative to the stereotype workout. Trim -A -Size and Trim 'N Dance provide activities which build cardio -respiratory en- durance, reduce body fat, improve flexibili- ty and strengthen all major muscles. Viv Cappelli is instructing both Trim -A - Size and Trim 'N Dance sessions at the Blyth Arena auditorium on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Both programs are designed to help the participants reach their desiFed level of fitness. However, they go about it in slightly different manners. "Trim 'N Dance is more of a choreograph- ed dance routine, while Trim -A -Size is more of an exercise program," Mrs. Cappelli ex- plained. "They are both designed for body toning, muscle strength, trimming you down and firming you up." The routines and exercises in both pro- grams are done to music, making the one hour and 15 minutes go by a little faster. Mrs. C'nnp11i originally from Stratford, has taken the programs many times and studied the instructor's course to become a teacher. She has also taken lessons in tap, jazz and ballet. The dancing studies have helped develop routines and keep Mrs. Cap- pelli in shape. According to the BodyFit guide, all in- structors must be non-smokers and must pass fitness and weight requirements. Mrs. Cappelli attends three workshops a year in Stratford. Here they do the required tests as well as taking training in CPR. One of the most important aspects of the BodyFit philosophy is the tact that in- structors recognize that fitness is in- dividual. Students are encouraged to work at a comfortable level. To find out exactly what is a comfortable level, they take their heart rate. "When you are doing the program, your heart rate must stay at a certain level. The heart rate (which is clearly charted out for the class) goes by age. After jogging or do- ing kicks, they take their heart rate. If it is higher, than they know they are not ready for the exercise and. should slow down," Mrs. Cappelli explained. For those who hate the smell of gyms and the thought of jogging up and down streets, take in a session of BodyFit. It adds a whole new meaning to the word "workout."
