Town council entertained the idea of paving the
road to allow for speeds lower than 50 km an hourto exist in Strathmores residential areas in the fu-ture, with a unanimous vote to review the traffic by-law and develop a policy based on the CanadianGuidelines for establishing posted speed limits last
week.The decision followed a proposal by the traffic ad-
visory committee to reduce municipal speed limitsfrom 50 km an hour to 40 km an hour on residentialroads dependent on specific residential componentssuch as traffic volume, parked vehicles, and road
width.A speed limit is exactly that, its a limit not a tar-
get, but unfortunately there are some people on theroad that see it as a target, said Martin Wiseman,member of the Traffic Advisory Board. I think thisis an awesome opportunity for Strathmore to be
proactive before someone gets killed down CentreStreet for example. By reducing the speed limit itsgot to have a positive impact on road safety. Its gotto have a positive impact on insuring the safety ofpedestrians; children.
Understanding possible defiance by drivers whenlowering the speed limit by too high of a reductionand acknowledging the possibility of observing agreater success rate when communicating the rea-soning behind the change in speed limits, the boardproposed surveying residents living on those roadsconsidered and thus providing a sense of engage-ment.All five council members in attendance, with the
absence of Mayor Michael Ell and Councillor DenisePeterson, spoke in favour of the reduction to 40 kman hour on certain residential roads, specifically sin-gling out Centre Street.
Centre Street is one of the busiest if not the mostdangerous street in this town and I refuse to useit myself, said Councillor Rocky Blokland. To methats just an accident waiting to happen at somepoint. I really believe were not going down farenough with this, it should go down to 30. Ive driv-en through lots of town and there are speed limitsall over the place and you just have to pay attentionand watch the signs and follow the speed limits.
Councillor Steve Grajczyk was also recognizedthat saving lives takes priority but was concerned
with the cost of replacing and installing new speedsigns. Council also discussed the possibility of intro-ducing a blanket 40-km-an-hour zone for all residen-tial areas, but research proved the approach had notalways been successful in areas across the province.

The Town of Strathmore isbeing left in the dark aboutthe fate of thousands of dol-lars in sponsorship for ad-
vertising to the CanadianRockies International Rodeo(CRIC), after the cancellationof the 2016 music festivaland rodeo.
The organization releaseda statement over two weeksago announcing a decision tono longer forge ahead withCanadas largest gay rodeo
and the anticipated CanadaDay music festival, which
wouldve featured acclaimedartists such as Terri Clark,the Road Hammers, and KimMitchell.While the announcement
left the community and its lo-cal politicians baffled a de-cision they were told proveda direct result of the Fort Mc-Murray fires and low ticket
sales CRIR remained reti-cent thus far on $10,000 thetown awarded the organiza-tion in January to go towardsadvertising at the event.
Our goal is to hopefullyget the money back and useit for other community festi-
vals or other groups lookingfor sponsorship but at thispoint we have no informa-tion, said Tracy Simpson,community services coor-dinator with the Town ofStrathmore.
All weve been told is thatthe board is coming up with
a plan and once they have aplan they would be letting usknow. Unfortunately wevehad very little communica-tion.
The event wouldve fea-tured more than 12 well-known artists, a 13-event ro-deo, a barbeque, food trucks,and beer and wine vendors.
This year wouldve markedthe festivals 23rd anniversa-ry and seventh year in Strath-more.The Alberta Rockies Gay
Rodeo Association (ARGRA),who hosted the event last
year, and CRIR were unavail-able for comment. Councilrequested for the issue to be
brought back for the June 15regular council meeting.
CRIR silent on returning funds
The first Annual REC the Streets event kicked off on June 1. The first week had participants par-taking in free exercise classes such as Hatha Yoga, Zumba Gold, Senior Aquacise, Stretching and
toning and some disc golf. Many of these events were held downtown on 2nd Avenue.

Canadians are living longer but doctors who
specialize in the care of the elderly, geriatricians,
make up only 1% of all the doctors in Canada. If
any readers are considering medicine as a career,
think of geriatrics as a specialty.
We often mention the benets of regular exercise
to our health. We talk about walking, swimming,
exercise circuits etc. But one activity that can
be really really helpful to prevent heart disease
dancing. Its a good mix of aerobic exercise and
social interaction. Youve got to break a sweat,
though. Salsa anyone?As the weather warms up, its good to review
what to do if a person has heat stroke caused by
the bodys overheating. Cooling the patient is
paramount. Move him to a cool place, remove as
much clothing as possible and sponge him down
with cool water. And call 911. If the heat stroke
is severe, it can cause brain injury and death. Its
an emergency situation so quick action is a must.
With the possibility of changes in the marijuana
laws in Canada, it bears mentioning that use of
alcohol and marijuana together impairs driving
more than either substance alone.
In our pharmacy, we are committed to giving you
the time to ask any questions you may have abut
your medication and give you the information
we feel you need to know about every new
prescript ion you receive from us. Make our
pharmacy your pharmacy.

The Strathmore Overnight Shelter
(SOS) is letting their creative juicesflow in organizing an entertaining andmouth-watering chili cook-off fund-raiser, with ambitions of raising thou-sands of dollars towards a requiredsprinkler system to bring their projectto fruition.
Organizers aim to receive participa-tion from 50 local residents and 25
businesses, who would contribute chilito be judged and voted on during theshelters first Rootin Tootin Outhousein the Park fundraiser. With a goal ofraising $5,000 at the event on CanadaDay, the shelter is inching closer tomeet the remaining $20,000 necessaryfor the installation of a sprinkler sys-tem; imperative to meet Strathmores
building codes for combining a church the harvest Healing Centre Church and an overnight shelter under thesame roof.
We have to have some fundraisersfor that sprinkler system and withthe shelter I think people dont knowexactly what it is still, said RichardRodgers, director of outreach for SOS.
People are sick of the same oldthing, sick of the run for this, the runfor that, silent auctions, and dinners.

Although no changes were made tospeed zones in Strathmores residentialareas, council voted to review the traffic
bylaw to allow for speeds lower than 50km an hour in those areas, and developa policy allowing for analysis for roads to
be identified for a reduction speed of 40km per hour.
As a community were doing not badin this area in regards to collisions, saidCouncillor Bob Sobol. Theres on av-erage for the last five years, theres 2.5pedestrian collisions a year, which is 2.5too many. But I think we have to creditthe motorists who do pay attention tothe speed limits and the vast majorityof people do that, but unfortunately noteveryone does. I think the committeesmain goal is to slow things down in hightraffic areas and make it just a little bitmore safe.
Road safety
wants to fundraise outside of the box.Rodgers has spent the last week canvass-
ing the area and inform the public aboutthe event while encouraging participation.
While the feedback has been positive, theorganizers continue to look for greater par-ticipation. Registering in the event requirescooking at least 4 litres of chili, supplying
your own tureen and heating source, andtwo individuals to help serve up the chilisample sizes on Canada Day.
Residents participating will have their
chili voted on by the public in hopes of tak-ing home the trophy a cowboy sitting ona toilet. The fundraiser will also provide in-formation and clarity on the shelter project,its purpose, and the need for financial help.
Its really up to the town how well it turnsout, Rodgers said. Its a type of learningcurve. We have to try one fundraiser and ifit doesnt work out then we have to think ofsomething that works out better.The Rootin Tootin Outhouse in the Park
fundraiser will take place on Canada Day inKinsmen Park at 11:30 a.m. Contestants areasked to set up at 11 a.m. Registering in thecook-off is free and to vote and sample thechili costs $3. For more information or toparticipate contact Richard Rodgers at 403-836-8745.

Tent Meeting, a musical play,will open in Rosebuds OperaHouse, June 24. The show hasreceived four nominations forBest Musical and Best Produc-tion. Morris Ertman, Rosebud
Theatres Artistic Director, whoco-wrote the musical and is alsodirecting this production, hasalso won and been nominatedfor numerous awards. The mostrecent are the 2016 Critter Awardnominations for Best Directorand Best Production for both
Wizard of Oz and Outside Mull-ingar at Rosebud Theatre.This is Tent Meetings third
time in Rosebud, having touredthrough the village in 2000 andhaving been produced at Rose-
bud Theatre in 2007.The show has entertained and
blessed people over and overand over again, Ertman said. Ikeep running into people whosay, Man, that show just grabbedme. It was so great. And they re-member it from 16 years ago or10 years ago.The story may be especial-
ly pertinent for the people ofsouthern Alberta this year, since
its set in hard economic times,during an extended drought.Its a story about what to do
when your life is falling apart ...whether its drought or whetherits a Fort McMurray wildfire and
youve been driven from yourhome. How do you not let bit-terness get in the way? Ertmansaid. Its about a husband and
wife who are estranged and to-days the day of reckoning ...and it happens to be around atent meeting. The story is a storyabout a community that gath-ers around George and Dollyand holds them up, even thoughtheir marriage is failing.
And Tent Meeting points to abrighter future.
The story is actually a verytrue-to-life story about how wegrow apart from each other andthen how we can get that feel-ing back when we surrender tolove, Ertman said. Its so filled
with hope and its also filled withthe notion that divine and won-derful healing can happen. Andthat we can come out the otherside of hard times more whole
than we were before.Jonathan Bruce is returning to
Tent Meeting to play Sam.Hes done the production vir-tually wherever Ive directed it,Ertman said. He embodies thecharacter so beautifully. Hes gota gorgeous tenor voice and hesmokes a stogie while singing.Hes like Jackie Gleason with astogie. Hes just stunning.
Rosebuds own David Snider isalso returning to the show, as isSeana Lee Wood, an actor fromStratford and Toronto. Actors De-clan OReilly and Blair Young ofCalgary complete the cast.
In tough challenging econom-ic times, it will be good for thepeople of Alberta to come to
the theatre and hear those glo-rious gospel harmonies, and toparticipate in the joy of the mu-sic, and the emotional connec-tion of the music, Ertman said.That, in hard times, in and ofitself, is a wonderful thing to do.Tent Meeting will play from
June 24 to Aug. 28. Matinee andevening tickets both include ameal. Purchase them from rose-
budtheatre.com or 1-800-267-7553.

The Rockyford club took part in the Peavey MartCustomer Appreciation day on April 9 in Strath-more. We cooked and served food and we were
able to make enough profits from that barbequethat we donated $300 to the Wheatland Food Bankin Strathmore.
On April 30, we took our cheque to the foodbank and then we participated in a club tour of theAnimal Care Center just outside of Strathmore. Abig thanks goes to Jodi Koester and her staff whowere amazing tour guides. This Animal Care Cen-ter opened in March 2007 and is a mixed animal
veterinary practice. Everyone enjoyed this tour andhopes to return next year.
Our District Heifer show was held on May 6at the Calgary Stockyards in Strathmore and theRockyford members did well. Congratulations ourHeifer members. The following are their resultsfrom the show:

Fule for Thought
Strathmore High has always tried to do things dif-ferently, and our principal has never shied away fromtrying new things. For a few years, we tried Early BirdPE for kids who had trouble fitting in PE classes intotheir schedules.
Early Bird PE means classes start at 7:15 in the morn-
ing, and ended around 8:30 am. Then youd go off toyour regular classes, and you could finish your day byabout 2:15 p.m.
One would think that would be a pretty good gig,but I was the guy who foolishly volunteered for thatclass! Even though these high school kids signed upfor the class, how many do you think actually liked be-ing active by 7:20ish not so many!
I tried all sorts of things to make it fun, and Im noteven a morning person myself! My class started in Sep-tember, and by winter mornings, it was a tough sell.A couple of really dark mornings, I had the bril-
liant idea to have them play hide & seek in the emp-ty school. No one sane was at the school at 7:15 a.m.,so the place was empty! Wed pick an it person, Idgo on the PA System to send off the kids to hide, andthe search was on. Little did I know that one morning,two kids asked our head caretaker Tim, to let them intoa classroom to hide. You guessed it they hid in this
room, shut out the lights, and went to sleep! None ofus could find them they slept, and won the stupidgame!
Fast forward about 20 years and this same Tim isworking his butt off for the 2016 Grad. Hes loggedmany overtime hours readying the school and groundsfor the big celebration. In fact, one of the last morn -ings, he worked until about 2:30 a.m., and was to starthis AM shift. A quick stop at Tims would help himthrough the morning, he thought.
So, he stopped in the Drive Thru to place his coffeeorder. However, on the third try, no one was taking hisorder, so he began to yell! The vehicles behind him
were honking, and he was furious. It was then thatTim realized he was ordering through the garbage can!
After getting his order, he sheepishly pulled into theCanadian Tire lot, only to get more honks and the fin-ger from another driver! Its amazing how early morn-
ing rage can take over people!I have my own English student who gives me night-
mares. Kaleigh is one of the nicest people you couldever meet. Shes kind of like a Disney princess. Shescheerful and sweet all cotton candy clouds and uni-corns. That is, unless you happen to meet her before9 a.m.!
Its a little like Frozen meets The Shining Iveactually heard her say: REDRUM REDRUM! (In case
you dont know, or have forgotten, spell that back-ward!).
I actually worry about her parents someone hasto wake her up for school! Im so glad I only get herat school I mean, whats she going to do to me inpublic? There are witnesses! So Ive come to walksoftly around Kaleigh in the morning classes! Ive actu-ally told her that when she eventually gets engaged,I need to meet her fianc I mean,someone has to
warn this person!I do get it, though. no one ever wanted to wake my
young son Brennen, when he fell asleep in our van. Idont want you to phone Child Welfare, but there weretimes back then, we let him sleep a bit longer in the
van in the garage. Its not like he was going to freeze,the vehicle was still warm, and it was always easierto let him wake slowly! It was probably my fault. Asa new dad, I did the 2 a.m. feedings with him. It wasall so new, and I was an eager young dad! Id change
him, goof around with him, maybe watch a late nightshow. then, I could never get him back to sleep! Withmy daughter Breanne, it was totally different I hadlearned my lesson! She got the bottle in the dark, gotchanged in the dark, and I never said a word to her! I
was like a ninja in stealth mode. Its funny how timeschange. Just a few short years ago, my kids werenteven getting in until about the time I used to do theirfeedings! Maybe tonight, Ill take a walk down Memo-ry laneI know, Ill text them at 2 a.m.!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the EditorIt costs $0 to be a decent person; how-
ever, despite the cost it appears to be acourtesy that is currently lacking in politi-cal arenas both provincially and federally.
Recent incidents in Ottawa with PrimeMinister Trudeau and in Edmonton withDerek Fildebrandt provide examples of
inappropriate behaviour, especially fromindividuals in leadership roles. Followingtheir respective incidents, both men wereCanadian politicians being profoundly Ca-nadian apologizing with a repetitive sorry.This is definitely nothing new. My ear-
liest recollection of politicians behavingpoorly is of Nikata Krushchevs purportedshoe banging in the United Nations Gen-eral Assembly in 1960. True or not, it hasclaimed a place in history and in his mem-oires. My next memory is of attending aparliamentary session in Ottawa with agroup of Strathmore students on the East-ern Canada trip in the 1990s. These teen-agers were surprised at how the parlia-mentarians were behaving telling me Mrs.(Denise) Peterson would never allow us toact like that in class.
Im sure she isnt the only teacher orparent with expectations and guidelineson proper behaviour.Versions of the Golden Rule are found in

The most familiar version of itstates, Do unto others as you

that everyone in a leadershiprole know people are watchingtheir behaviours and judgingthem.
It is profitable to remem-ber to treat others the way wewant to be treated and to talk

When their 10.5-year-olddog Peeties aggressive can-cer prognosis took a turnfor the worse seven weeksago, pet owners Reesa andCameron Bruce exhausted
all options to prolong hislife; eventually even seekingout advice on euthanasiaprocedures. That was untilthe couple stumbled acrossHealth Canada approvedMedical Marijuana CannabisSativa Seed Oil products. InPeeties case, within a day,the Maltese Yorkies appetitereturned, he was chasingthe cats, jumped on the fur-
niture, and started sleepingthrough the night. Astound-ed by its effect, the Wheat-land County residents, theirparents and close friends
began using the hemp seedoil themselves, ultimatelyresulting in the creation ofEndeavour More Living
the only distributors of theproduct in Strathmore andarea.
We were misinformed atone point, we just assumedmedical marijuana meantthe drug form and this is amorally comfortable optionfor people who want medi-cal marijuana but dont wantanything to do with the drugside of it, said Reesa Bruce.

We started realizing thereare so many people that aresuffering with somethingand sometimes its a physi-cal condition, sometimesits a mental condition, andsometimes people just wantto be healthy. All it is, is thepressed oil from the seeds
which is a super-food. All itis, is a food substance.The cannabis hemp seed
oil products are legally ap-proved federally and byHealth Canada, and grown
by farmers in Health Canadafacilities. Containing 80 percent of essential fatty acids omegas 3-6-9 and all eightamino acids, and with onlytrace amounts of Tetrahy-drocannabinol (THC), theprincipal psychoactive con-stituent of cannabis, HealthCanada states the productdoesnt cause a high, addic-tion or lead to an overdose.Furthermore, because itsa food source, there are noknown side effects or inter-ference with other medica-tions.While the local distribu-
tors only launched theirbusiness on May 7, the inter-est and feedback has beenoverwhelming.
Its been way busier thanwe expected, said ReesaBruce. Were having troublekeeping the product in. Wekind of expected some con-troversy because of the wordmarijuana, but weve had
nothing but love and sup-port. The product itself has
been around for 15 years, soits not like its brand new.
Were just only new to it be-cause it really doesnt get alot of public attention. Itsstarting to now.
Since providing the prod-uct locally, the couple has
been busy studying up onthe product, its health ben-efits, and spent any extratime on their lunch breaksand after work making de-liveries around Strathmoreand the Wheatland Countyarea.Although Reesa and Cam-
eron Bruce recognize theproduct wont act as a curefor their dog and dont wantto cause false hope for thepublic, the products have
been known to provide re-lief and may be beneficial tothose suffering from numer-ous illnesses including can-cer, arthritis, diabetes, Celiacdisease, seizures, anxiety,
allergies, sleep issues, brainfunction issues, and hor-monal issues. As with anyhealth product, it is advised
that those suffering from medical con-ditions or are on prescription drugscheck with their doctor.
People we know that are taking nu-merous pills a day and theyre able tocut back their pills dramatically, saidCameron Bruce. If it can alleviatesome of your symptoms, all the better.Its a healthy alternative to a lot of thepharmaceuticals. We are just scratch-ing the surface of this. Its not a bigtown, but there are a lot of people witha lot of issues and to make a change insomeones life, thats huge.

Leah Elder and Carly Da-vidson are ready to bringthe joys of reading to localchildren at the StrathmoreMunicipal Library for the an-nual Summer Reading Pro-gram. The theme this yearis wild and the two coor-dinators have been hard atwork planning on how toincorporate the theme intoeach weeks activities while
inspiring the youths to read.Come September theywill be the kids the teach-er doesnt have to worryabout, said Elder.
They will be the leadersin their class, they will bestrong readers, they will behelping their friends and itgives them an opportunityto meet new people.
Once children are regis-tered in similar age groups,they will embark on fourweeks of games, crafts andreading, all of which encom-pass the wild theme such aswild weather, the wild west
and wild Canada. Each agegroup will have the eventtailored to them and theirlevel of ability. The programis offered to children agedthree years old to Grade 7.
For Davidson the aim ofthe program is to help thechildren who like to readbooks grow, and instill alove of reading in others.
I dont believe that any-one doesnt like to read they
just havent found the rightbook yet, she said.
But that is our job andwe are going to find theright book.At the end of the program
the top readers and thosethat have improved the mostwill receive prizes, althoughthe coordinators are hopingfor some donations in orderto get bigger, more person-alized prizes.

Saving the wetlandsANDREA ROBERTS
Times Intern
Wetlands are a vital par t of the eco-system and help with a number of pro-cesses such as flood and drought pre-
vention.Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) un-
derstands the need for wetlands. Thegroup recently held their 34th AnnualStrathmore Dinner and Auction on June4 at the Strathmore Civic Centre to con-tinue to fund their restoration efforts.
So we are a conservation company,said Warren Robb, conservation pro-gram specialist who is in charge ofparts of Wheatland County and VulcanCounty. We try to conserve the land soit can stay as the native prairies. We tryto keep the land as it has always beenfor wildlife and especially waterfowl.Wetlands are important parts of the
ecosystem. While acting as habitats forwaterfowl, they also act as buffers forfloods and droughts, and provide a
water source for cattle. They help withground flow, contribute to the ground
water table and help filter contami-nants, such as an excess of phosphorus,out of the water before it travels into thelakes and streams to form algae blooms.
In Canada up to 70 per cent of wet-lands have been destroyed or degraded,some due to having been drained foragricultural use of the land. DUC worksalongside farmers to form a symbioticrelationship allowing for continuing ag-ricultural practices while protecting andrevitalizing wetland areas. An exampleof this relationship is Shell Buffalo HillsConservation Ranch.
DUC bought the 6,000 acres of land in
2013; it is the organizations largest landpurchase to date. It is also ecologicallyimportant because of the native prairiehabitat. The Shell Buffalo Hills conser-
vation ranch is made up of two historicalranches: the UM Ranch formed in 1904,and the Buffalo Hills Ranch formed in
1911. In 1950 the ranches were mergedand became King Ranch, which wouldcontinue until 2003 when it was againmerged with the Willard Ranch and
became known as Marsh Ranch. Theowner of the land at the time, GordonMarsh, decided to sell the land to DUCin order to conserve it.
Since then the organization hashelped restore the wetlands that weredrained while allowing the wetlandsleft on the land to thrive. The land isleased out so that cattle can still grazein the area. Farmers who do decide tohave their wetlands restored are com-pensated by the group.
Noah Aries (l-r) and Warren Robb, who both work
for the Ducks Unlimited Canada office in Strath-more as conservation program specialists, stand
in front of one of the wetlands the group is help-
ing to restore at the Shell Buffalo Hills Conserva-
tion Ranch.Andrea Roberts Photo

The citation information that wentalong with the award praised Silvashard work, calling him an exceptionalteacher who was able to teach physics,chemistry and mathematics in fun andengaging ways.
Justins work was exemplary, saidSharon Pelech, an assistant professorwho taught Silva in his science meth-ods course. His creativity and detail inplanning for providing students withopportunities to experience science asa process as opposed to a lot of timesscience is typically presented as fact, soJustin is able to connect some higherscience concepts to students everydaylives.
Silva was surprised when the deancontacted him to congratulate him onthe award, stating it was a combina-tion of outstanding performance in thepracticums and academic excellence inthe classroom. Silva did three practi-cums during his years at the university.His first practicum was in De Winton,
his second in Medicine Hat and the lastone in Taber.After receiving the medal, Silva said
it was one of those moments that willstay with him forever and will help mo-tivate him to be a good teacher.
It is nice to have that medal now andhave the degrees framed, said Silva. Iguess it symbolizes the time to moveon to the next stage in life now it is alittle bittersweet in ways but it is great.

Taking care of our eyesJAN ROSE
Times Contributor
All of us at the back of our eyes havesnitches who tell on us. And thankgoodness those blood vessels and capil-laries do, for they give evidence of notonly eye problems but developing trou-
ble in the body such as glaucoma, mul-tiple sclerosis, high blood pressure anddiabetes long before symptoms appear.
Dr. Michelle Duke at FYI Doctors is astrong proponent of comprehensive eyeexams for not only checking vision anddetermining eye health but a forewarn-ing of developing problems elsewherein the body.
A comprehensive eye exam is onewhere we check your vision, we checkto see if you have a prescription, bin-ocular vision, how well your eyes worktogether, and a lot of health compo-nents. So much can be detected in aneye exam. As an example, she citesglaucoma as an example of how an eyeproblem can escape notice that leads us
to believe our eyes are healthy.
Glaucoma at first affects pe-ripheral vision so must peopledont notice the effect, she ex-plained. If left untreated the dis-ease damages the optic nerve
with the potential to cause blind-ness. There isnt a remedy, onlytemporary measures such as eyedrops that relieve the pressureand surgery in some situations.
A lot of people think that eyediseases such as glaucoma hap-pen when youre older, Dukeexplained. That isnt true. Ivehad young patients who despitethere not being a family historydevelop the disease.Another eye disease, macu-
lar degeneration, is age related(AMD) but can be influenced byother factors such as smokingand being exposed to sunlightfor long periods during a per-sons life. The degeneration is oftwo types: wet and dry. In theformer small blood vessels grow
underneath the macula destroy-ing light sensitive cells in addi-tion to leaking blood fluid intothe eye. In dry AMD, as in wet,
light sensitive cells break down.Waste products build up in theretina, forming small depos-its that tend to increase in size.Eventually, central vision beginsto deteriorate.Although AMD is age related
it can be caused by bad habitssuch as smoking and not takingpreventative measures such as
wearing sun glasses that blockultra-violet radiation from thesun, Judy pointed out. Nutri-tional supplements can assist eyehealth although a proper bal-anced diet can achieve the sameresult. Eat foods such as kaleand other dark green leafy veg-etables. Pay particular attentionto orange coloured vegetableslike peppers and carrots. Omega3 found in fish oils is also ben-eficial.
Duke recommends patientshaving an eye exam ask the op-tometrist if it is comprehensive or
something simpler. Eyes shouldbe examined every two years forthose between the ages of 19 to64, annually for patients over 64.WELL MAINTAINED

Did You Know?
Thousands of years ago, the Ancient Romans named the month
after the goddess Juno, who was the patron of marriage and also responsible
for looking after the wellbeing of women.
The name June also comes from the Latin word juvenis,
which means young people.

where he will compete against hundreds of otherdancers from across North America and amongother routines perform his award-winning musi-cal theatre solo.
Proudfoot began dancing late in the game, atage seven, after squirming in his seat watching
his younger sister have fun on stage. Following inhis older brothers footsteps who also danced the up-and-comer trains 16 hours a week, per-fecting contemporary, tap, ballet, hiphop, jazz,and musical theatre techniques among his manyother dance classes. Then just over two weeksago, Proudfoot found himself the runner-up at anelite Candance competition in Red Deer on May22, when he received a high score of over 95 outof 100, and awarding him a spot at the nationalcompetition in Orlando, Fla. in early July anhonour no one in his family has received and
which comes attached with a $5,000 price-tag thefamily and community is now fundraising for.
My first reaction was shock, then the first thingI said when I got back to my group of friends
was, my mom is probably crying in the audienceright now; I wasnt wrong, said Proudfoot.
Im going to see incredibly amazing dancersthat will give me inspiration to shoot for that lev-el of skill. Im 100 per cent going to work as hardas I can to make sure that Im ready to go to thatcompetition.
Several thousand dancers across North Amer-ica were selected to compete in the nationals,
where dancers are exposed to workshops androutines mirroring the style of So You Think YouCan Dance.While the family expects Proudfoot to compete
against roughly 200 athletes in his age group he is competing in Mr. Teen the StrathmoreHigh School student will be able to perform ahip hop routine, and his musical theatre routine,for which he received numerous recognitions, in-cluding most entertaining, high score, outstand-
ing musical theatre solo, and subsequently thespot at nationals.
He was a slow starter, he was a late bloomer,but he just hit a peak and I dont even think hesclose to his ceiling, said Christine Forner, Proud-foots mother.
Its the top of the top, the best of the bestthat are going and its very hard to get into. Hesdone really well in musical theatre in the lastthree years, which gave him so much more con-fidence.As the family is now actively fundraising and
seeking sponsorships to cover travel, accommo-dation, and competition fees cost, Expressions
The Dance Company, has offered extra instruc-tion and studio time, while Catch a Rising StarDance Festival has also sponsored the youngathlete. Members of the local dance studio havealso started to financially support Proudfoot andsome mothers are helping Forner plan a fund-raising paint night event. So far the family hasraised just over $600.
