MAIN EVENT

‘Sandpiper Sanitarium’ opens for three days As Halloween approaches, ghoulish decorations are being mounted on front lawns, costumes are being carefully chosen and candy is accumulating in cupboards.

tour the Canuck Place Children’s Hospice that will soon open its doors in Abbotsford.

For Courtney Hogarth-Trafford and her family, however, the big night means a chance to both scare and care.

“After seeing what they do, and how much they care, it now goes far beyond just a charity to us,” she says. “We honestly left feeling that we wished to win the lottery to help them out more than we are.”

Plans include preparing their property on Sandpiper Drive for their upcoming “Vampires Through the Ages” haunted house featuring an outdoor graveyard, a “nice path” for the little ones, and a “naughty path” for the parents.

With the help of neighbours Andy and Ruth Langton, who are building a massive haunted castle onto the garage, and the generous donations by local businesses towards the final tally, this year may be the start of a new tradition.

“The vampire theme organ music will set the scene upon entering, and coffins and candlelight will be aplenty,” says Hogarth-Trafford. “All volunteers will be dressed as everything from Bram Stoker’s Dracula to Edward Cullen.”

The new costume and prop shop Halloween Alley on Marshall Road has agreed to donate 10 per cent of all receipts to the cause, on behalf of whoever mentions the Canuck Place Haunted House at the till.

But the family isn’t just upping the ante on costumes and scare tactics; this is also the first year they are raising money for charity.

Opening night is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 30, with Tim Hortons giving out free hot chocolate and Timbits.

“We have decided to make Canuck Place our choice charity as everyone involved are parents, and we are big Canucks fans and always see the telethon every year,” says Hogarth-Trafford. “Also, we are all fortunate to have healthy children, but some families in B.C. are not so lucky.”

For info about how to donate or volunteer, join the Facebook page “Haunted House Sandpiper Drive Abbotsford.”

This became clear after they had the chance to

Wrap-Up THIS FALL

KNIT CARDI’S A MUST-HAVE THIS SEASON! Fall has officially arrived and that means some chilly days ahead, but how to stay warm in style?

This season’s range of cardigans, wraps and long sweaters offers plenty of choices for everyone.

Because many of these outer layers are thick and textured, be careful of what you wear as your base layers. Too much draping can add bulk, making you look bigger than you are, so choose thinner, light-weight fabrics for what goes on your body first.

Also, pay attention to what you’re wearing on your bottom half. Again, avoid bulk, choosing perhaps a pencil skirt or leggings to balance out a bulkier top.

RONALD ALLAN >

< CLEO

Another option is to belt the cardigan or wrap – depending on how thick it is – to cinch in the waist for a curvier silhouette.

Foods that are good for your skin We have all spent more time than we’d like to admit soaking up the sun, indulged in an extra piece of chocolate cake and, on an occasion or two, forgone the recommended 8 hours of sleep.

Between the damage we have self-inflicted upon ourselves and the challenges we face against pollution, chemically-enhanced food and aging, keeping your skin looking its best is an uphill battle.

Luckily, there are a few foods you can incorporate into your diet that will actually repair some of the damage your skin has encountered over the years.

Red Grapes

Artichokes

Red grapes have been shown to treat psoriasis and eczema.

Regular consumption of these woody, fibrous vegetables can lead to healthier skin and improved skin luminosity.

Berries Strawberries, blackberries and blueberries contain high amounts of vitamin C (more than oranges), which combat wrinkles.

The Farmer and the Foodie A startling fact recently shared with me is that today’s youth is the first generation predicted to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. Childhood obesity, early onset diabetes, lack of exercise and processed foods all play a part in this grim statistic. I have no data to back this up, but my personal feeling is that one of the biggest contributors to the growing poor health of our youth is their lack of basic cooking skills, and I mourn the loss of making this essential life skill a mandatory high school course. Everyone must eat to survive, and therefore everyone should be taught how to cook healthy food rather than rely on the prepared food and restaurant industry to fuel the bodies and brains of our future

leaders. However I’m encouraged by the growing trend of a few influential TV chefs who are moving away from showcasing gourmet restaurant meals to teaching easier, hearty home cooking that anyone with a few basic skills can master. Jamie Oliver is one of my favorites, and the ease and cheekiness with which he “bangs together” a knockout meal is always a joy to watch. The tray bake recipe featured is similar to something he’d throw into his wood fired backyard oven - simple, hearty ingredients, easily prepared, and the end result is a deli- cious and healthy home cooked meal even a rookie cook EXP OUR LORE can master.

MYTH: Not everyone needs a flu shot.

DR. JACQUES WEST MEDIMAX MEDICAL CENTERS

It is important to be vaccinated against the flu each fall. This is especially true for the elderly and young children (6-23 months) but most people benefit.

People with diseases that compromise the immune system, health workers, and those with chronic heart and lung diseases are especially prone to catching the flu, and should also make sure to get a vaccine yearly. The vaccine is effective for four to six months and changes every year.

The flu spreads through droplets, a cough into the air by an infected person and absorbed through the mouth, nose and surface of the eyes. You can catch the flu by being up to two meters away from a patient or person with the flu and also by touching contaminated areas ie: cell phones, keyboards, hands rails, escalators, etc.

possibly make a difference.”

On the morning after a violent storm, the residents of a seaside village awoke to find their beach covered with hundreds of dying starfish which had washed ashore.

The little girl looked up at the old man, smiled and bent down to pick another starfish. As she threw it back into the sea, she replied, “I made a huge difference to that one!” - Author Unknown

As the community gathered at the end of the beach, they spoke in hushed tones about the great sadness of the disaster.

Suddenly, a young girl ran towards the beach and began to pick up the starfish one at a time, throwing them back into the water.

THE STARFISH PACK PROGRAM STORY

A village elder walked towards the young girl and kindly said, “Child, there are hundreds of starfish on this beach and this must be happening on other beaches up and down the coast. You must understand that you alone can’t

At the outset of the 2013-2014 school year, the Abbotsford Rotary Club met with the Abbotsford School District to determine the scope of need and the priority order of schools. It was determined that nearly 400 elementary school children throughout Abbotsford’s public schools depends on either an inschool breakfast and/or lunch program as their sole source of nutrition during a normal school day.

estimate indicated that over 300 of those students were also going completely without nutritional meals of any kind over a normal two day weekend.

Working with the Abbotsford Food Bank, corporate partners, non-profit groups, faith groups and individuals, the program called “Abbotsford Rotary Starfish Pack Program” expanded from the original single school pilot project of ten backpacks to the current level of 13 schools serving 195 students and their families.

At the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year, we have renamed our program the “Starfish Pack”, with hopes to exceed the previous number of weekly backpacks.

Additional corporate and personal sponsorships are necessary to allow our community partners and volunteers to

continue to make a real difference each week in the lives of local school children and their families.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE – HERE’S HOW TO DONATE The cost of providing the weekend meals to one child for a school year is $525.

With the help of BlackPress4Good and The Abbotsford News, donations large or small can be made to contribute to this worthy cause.

Whether it is a $5 or $525 donation, every dollar makes a difference in a local child’s life.

LIFE

Warm metallics are making a major comeback this season.

Even the smallest touches of brass, bronze and gold can add an element of elegance to any room in your home. Here are a 3 tips to help you incorporate this trend without investing in a major reno.

1. Don’t be afraid to mix and match different metals, just be sure to feature one and use the others as smaller accents.

2. Start small. A few key accessories can brighten a room and add a little sparkle without changing the entire dynamic of the space.

3. Metals attacted attention, so be sure to spread out your pieces throughout the room so that your space remains balanced.
