Clarke's “dedication and untiring efforts” during the last 15 years have resulted in the establishments of super- ior services for the handi- capped in the Kootenay re- gion, according to a prepared release from the federal gov- ernment. She has been involved as a advocate and supporter for the mentally handicapped voted to handicapped people such as the Pilot Parent Group for the Endicott Cen- tre, Peoples First in Cran- brook and Creston, the Par- ent Support Group in Kim- berley and the Infant De- velopment Program and the Community Based Support Service for Independent Liv- ing. The Canada Volunteer Award was established by the Health and Welfare Min- istry to honor people who have made a continuing vol- untary contribution to the promotion of health and so- cial services in their com- munities.

Hedda Breckenridge laughs when she recalls how she joined the program. “I would walk past the poster real slow and try to read it,” she said. “I had to do it so many times because I didn't want anybody to catch me standing there reading it.” Jacque DePaoli, a dietician at Castlegar and District Hospital, is the group's instructor and morale booster. She said the program, which is designed to help teenagers control their weight by improving their attitudes and lifestyles, can prove intimidating for young people.

DePaoli said her initial aim was simply to have all the students complete the 12-week course, but she said the practical applications of the material, which not only adaresses: eating and oxercise habits but procastination and d the stud ts to see it through. Kinnaird WI hears was surprised by the similar anxieties everyone shared. “It's as though you overcome your problems as a group.” Though the course ended in May, some of the participants said they would like to take it again. Some feared they may fall off a bit on their exercises over the summer but most agreed their new health habits were “addictive.” “Once you start exercising you don't ever want to miss a day,” said Hegan. “It’s like a drug. “And you have more energy,” she said. “If you're just sitting around a lot you don’t want to study.” Breckenridge agreed. “We sit down and study now when we have to,” she said. “It makes a difference in the stress you're under.” DePaoli maintained that the response to the course proves there is a demand for a program aimed strictly at teenagers. She said the Shapedown program was ped some five years ago at the Adolescent Medicine Unit of the University of California and has been tested throughout North America. DePaoli said she hopes Castlegar’s program, which is a cooperative project between the hospital and the Central Kootenay Health Unit, will expand next year to include a separate course for younger teens and one strictly for boys. DePaoli would also like to see even more teenagers in the program next year. “Unfortunately, many people tend to judge us strictly She has played an instru- To date, more than 450 mental role in the devel- Canadians have been honor- opment of organizations de- ed by the program.
