CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, June 15, 1978 RY] Travel Tips “Planning Your Trip” By Ken and Mate Rodgers itory 0 or is it to old, familiar places? ae 1 to-be the most useful if they are available. If ha and I, we like to take all the back roads nu get a better feel for the area, the people miryside, It is not like being on a super ‘titerstate highway where all you see are the service stations and eating houses along the route. Get out there where the people are, but before you go, don't forget to make sure you have the proper registration and insurance neatly tucked away. You never know when you might be asked for it. If you ‘are lucky enough lo be going on an extended vacation, be gure lo leave at least your license plate number with family or fr is. Just in the event something serious comes up at it is likely that you can be contacted through the eho patrol, ¢ When you are on the road, don't overdo the driving. ihryi ing to find a parking spot in the dark is frustrating and iqerve wracking. Estimate just how far you want to travel ch day and try to stick to it, Relaxed travel is the name of game on holidays, t ‘Maps, of course, are the most important thing you can farry. Go to the book store and buy a good Rand MacNalley ‘With large seale maps of every state and province. You can ‘sg more detailed maps of the area you are in from the local {ourist office, just stop and pick them up when you get near your destination, Don't forget to use the old C.B. if you find yourself lost ina large city. There is always someone on the airways who will help you find your way. ‘Planning the trip should be done well in advance. We find it easiest to make a as things come to mind and then cross off the list.as things needed are acquired, Don’t forget the tool box. If you are like me, if I couldn't fiddle and fix the unit, I wouldn't be happy. Remember the purpose of the trip is to have fun and enjoy what you set out to do, Plan it well and it will be more enjoyable for everyone, Clear skies and good traveling.

You don't need to. Shower, that is. ‘The fact that your kids run screaming away from your slippery embrace, the dog whines and turns tail, and your spouse nips around to the other side of the table, probably is. * just something to do with your heavy breathing, You don’t smell. Okay? “The shower after jog- ging,” says George Sheehan, “is a great act. But it’s purely symbolic; part of the ritual— like cleansing yourself off the presenting yourself to the king.” Or the wife? “Sure,” says Sheehan, an ‘American doctor and author of books on running, who is in Richmond to promote the mu- nicipality’s 1978 Fitness Festi- val, “Look, I sweat exceedingly when I run. Then I rub myself down with a towel. Sweating is like taking a bath. You're coated ina sterile, salt solution. It’s only if you leave it there for bacteria to grow that you smell.” The smelly sweat, he says, only flows when you're ner- vous, “Like a dog can smell when you're nervous. It's the apo- crine glands, The people who need to shower are those who sit around getting nervous, and they probably get that way by sitting watching joggers pass by covered in their own clean bath of sweat.” ‘Why Can’t We Find Time? ~ + The following letter to the’ republished here.

CASTLEGAR NEWS News Department 365-3517 Dear Sir: How many times have we heard—little Johnny's in trou- ble with the police. Where did we go wrong? We gave him everything. Maybe you feel you did give him everything—the the material everything. How many 5 to 10-year-olds say "I want" and mommy or daddy rush out and buy right now? But what happened the last time your son said “Dad let's go fishing". The likely response is “not now, son I'm busy” or “I have a meeting,” or “I'm tired,” or “the game is on rm Mom, what was your re- sponse the last time your little girl said “Mom will you teach me to make cookies?” Why are parents enrolling their children in hockey, ball, Guides, Cubs, etc.—because it's good for the child or because it gets the kid out of your hair for a couple hours? Do the parents of these kids realize a lot of these organ- izations are about to fold up? Why? Because the parents don't have TIME. Hockey can’t get coaches, ball can't get coaches, Scouts and Guides can't get leaders or committee members. Figure skating can’t get executive members. Parents have been ful- filling these roles for years— but is it fair that parents whose children have outgrown these organizations should still have Fun. Summer Fun Pools 932 Columbia See how we build our pools! _ This week we are at: 2268 - 2nd Avenue, Rossland Come down! We want you to see the quality and excellence we put into our pools. We'll answer your questions and we'll show you the way to Summer 365-5890 to do the job—or adults. who don't even have children? In the past two years, being involved with my sons’ groups, I've heard more lame excuses than a: millipede has legs. Would you like to hear some of the better, more worn-out ones? Maybe some will sound familiar. The best is: I've never done it before. I don't know how. Well, when we started we had never done it before either. There are always others to guide you and show you how. Next best: I work, I don't have time. Well, I work, too— maybe I don't hold down a job ouside the home, but I work. You with jobs—are you there 24 hours a day, seven days a week? I rather doubt it. Another tired-out excuse: I'll help—just call but don't ask me to be a leader, a coach or executive member. Another: I don't have the patience. What a lot of rot! You parents who can't get involved with your child's activ- ities are going to learn a hard lesson come September when Summer Program We have just completed our summer schedule of activ- ‘ities and will be announcing the complete program of activities this week, either in the Castle- gar News or flyers through the school system. Persons interested in any of our activities will have the opportunity to register Monday at 8:30 a.m, Swim Lessons Due to the: popularity of our summer swim program, may we suggest that you make an attempt to be here early, as the classes will be filling up quickly. It should be noted that registrations for swim lessons at the Brandson Pool in Castle- gar will be accepted only at the Recreation Office. Registrations Persons interested in registering in one of our other recreational programs may do so by either registering in Various canoe camps have been planned and these camps are designed for children be- tween the ages of 9 and 14. The two popular summer programs which involve the 4-6 ~ age group and the 6-9 age group have been expanded this year. Applejack Program The applejack program, which will emphasize free play, active games, song And dance, drama, story time, arts/crafts, day outings and special events will be located in three areas. For Castlegar South residents the program will be held July 4-7, 10-14, and 17-21. For Castlegar North residents the program is slated for Kinsmen Park and will run July 4-7, 17-21 and 31 - Aug. 4. In Blueberry Creek the program will be held July 24-28, 31 - Aug. 4 and from Aug. 8-11. Adventurers Program The adventurers pro- gram—which this year will em- Phasize canoeing, hiking, person at the ion Office or by mailing in the registration form which is a part of the advertising booklet. Robson Registration Further, Robson residents interested in registering for swim lessons at the Robson Pool have one of three choices, They may register in person at . the Recreation Office up to, and including, June 28; or they may register by mail; or they may register at the Robson Pool on June 29 and 30 between the hours of 10-12 noon and 1-3 p.m. Remember, registrations begin on Monday at the Recre- ation Offices and our hours of operation are from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and this includes being open through the noon hour. Floor Hockey This summer for the month of July we are going to try something a little different in the arena. If enough interest ean be gained, we would like to start shinny or floor hockey. Anyone who is 19 and over and interested in playing in a league, should contact the Recreation Office. Further in- formation will be released when sufficient teams can be formed. As for our summer activ- ities, we have a number of pro- grams which we hope you will be interested in participating in. y Special Activities , This year, a number of special events have been planned and they include tennis and golf lessons, water skiing -elinic, Kokanee Glacier hike and camp-out, Fest run, more of these fold. Then will the complaints start to roll in and you better place the blame where it be- longs—on your shoulders. Don't blame someone else for your mistakes, It is now time to decide what is more important—your ball game on TV, your house- work—that will still be here in 20 years. Your young child won't. It's funny how you can always find time to go to a party Saturday night but not a weiner roast with your child Saturday afternoon. They are children for so short a time. Soon they will be parents like you and me. If you don't have time for your child— don’t expect your child to have time for his. A.A. Reader Sunflower Fest carnival and a bike rodeo, Senior Citizens Events For the senior citizens, a number of special outings have been arranged and they vary from a trip to the Nakusp Hot Springs toa trip to Vancouver.
