Public School students turn over a new leaf
Vo l u n t e e r p a re n t D a v i d C o c k b u r n accompanies the students from the Fruit and Vegetable group. By Shelley Martel s part of a 4 week program aimed at educating students about healthy snacking and implementing this knowledge into their daily lives, Mrs. Betty O'Hearn's class had a weekly visitor to their classroom. Robin Greer, of the Chapleau Northwoods Heart Health Coalition, spent 1 hour every Friday, at the Chapleau Public School making
A
learning about nutrition and snacking fun. The first week was spent discussing what types of things the students are eating and how they rate as healthy snacks. Robin presented a 27 item list of everday healthy snacks such as light popcorn, whole grain crackers, and yogurt tubes. They made a chart of healthy snacks and of course brought in healthy snacks for the kids to sample.
“Some of the kids had never been exposed to some of the things we tried and once they gave them a try, they liked most of them. The only things which really didn't go over well were tomato juice and raisins,” reported Robin Greer. Week 2 was spent learning about juices. The students were taught how to look for 100% fruit juice. The third week the group talked about shopping and menu planning as they munched on tangerines supplied by Robin. They made a shopping list for the following week when they would visit the grocery store together to make their health smart purchases. Betty and Robin, as well as two v o l u n t e e r s , accompanied the class to Valu-Mart to gather what they needed from their list. The class
was split into groups and each group was responsible for a particular food group. Once back at school, the class snacked from a big buffet of bagels, lean meats, fruit and juices. The Heart Health Coalition had supplied each of the kids with litterless lunch kits to help them fill their lunch boxes with the appropriate amount and portions of snacks. The program encouraged them to eat the snacks that they brought even if it wasn't particularly healthy and ensured them that it is alright to have unhealthy snacks on occasion. Betty O'Hearn is very proud of her class's achievements. “Little people are very enthusiastic, they were right on board with the program,” she shared. “There is definitely more physical activity among the children.
Less access to sweets allows them to learn and concentrate better.” Robin and Betty both commented on how parents have been very supportive of the program. As an added bonus, parents have reported better attitudes, behaviour, and habits at home
since the program began in the school. Chapleau Public School has shown interest in expanding the healthy snack program schoolwide and the Northwoods Heart Health Coalition plans on co-ordinating a program with our other schools next.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR I t a k e exception to your article in you paper about only two stores being opened on Friday November 18th. Our hardware and furniture stores were both opened until 9:00 p.m. I also know that the Village
Shops was opened as well until 9:00 p.m. We have supported this event since it’s inception. Thank you for the space in your newspaper. Doug Collins Collins Home Hardware
In last weeks’s article “Another successful start to the Christmas Season” it was stated that only two downtown stores were opened for the “Tree Lighting” event. As you must surely be aware, an ad from the C h a p l e a u Vi l l a g e Shops was placed in the paper the previous week announcing our participation. We were in fact open and served our traditional hot apple cider and f r e s h b a k e d shortbreads. Although we
were not notified of the “Tree Lighting” date, fortunately, one of my staff heard about it, and we were able to place an ad prior to the paper’s deadline. As a long time retailer and as one of the original founders of the event, I am very disappointed that all of th e r etailer s w h o participated in this community event were not reported in the article. Yours truly Lucy Bignucolo C h a p l e a u Vi l l a g e Shops

Chapleau's youth dance to a new beat
Connexion Chapleau Assemblée publique Foire d'information concernant la bande passante et la recherche Le Maire et les membres du Conseil vous invite à :
CONNEXION CHAPLEAU UNE SOIRÉE D'INFORMATION POUR LES RÉSIDENTS QUI AURA LIEU À LA CHAPLEAU HIGH SCHOOL AU CAFÉTORIUM À 19h Mardi le 6 décembre À cette session, les résidents et les commerçants de Chapleau entendront de première main les informations en provenance des membres de l'équipe du Projet Chapleau en ce qui traite des services de bande passante disponibles en plus des projets de recherche qui se déroulent dans la communauté.

By Shelley Martel On the evening of Friday, November 25th, 2005, young citizens of Chapleau had the opportunity to experience the very first, state of the art video dance at the Community Hall. The Chapleau Recreation Centre hosted the video dance for youth between the ages of 10 and 18. The 63 kids up to the age of 12 were the first to experience the brand new 22 foot wide video screen where the awesome larger than life music videos made a huge impression on them. “A lot of them just sat there watching the screen since a lot of them have never been to a video dance,” reported Kevin Morris Chapleau Recreation Director. After 9:00
p.m., the 13-18 year old crowd of 133 who were waiting in line anxiously, got their chance to see for themselves what all the hype was about. Many were quoted as saying, “That was the best dance I've ever been to…I can't wait until the next one!” The next dance is already in the works for Carnival weekend due to the enthusiastic response of our young people. According to Kevin Morris, there will probably be 3-4 video dances per year, including dances for adults, as well as other events such as Superbowl and W r e s t l i n g . “Hopefully, in the near future, videoconferencing soon be available,” shared Mayor Earle Freeborn. Once a licence
is purchased enabling the township to show movies in the Community Hall, Kevin is anxious to offer movie nights on the big screen. With the access to the arena canteen and the Community Hall kitchen, the Recreation centre will be able to be transformed into a movie theatre, which is something that Chapleau hasn't had since the closure of The Fox Theatre on Main Street, approximately 30 years ago. T h e Vi d e o Dance was made possible by the purchase of a permanent 22 foot wide video screen to compliment the sound system, which was installed by Bell/Nortel for the
launch of the High Speed Internet. The sound system was generously left here for the use of the community. Licenced Disc Jockey (DJ), Bizick, was hired to play the music and videos for the event from his extensive up-to-theminute collection, which he purchases for this purpose. Age appropriate music was selected for each of the two dances and requests were more than welcome. Of course, the time, generously donated by a faithful group of volunteers, helped make the first video dance a huge success. “We didn't h a v e a n y problems…everything went really well,” reported Kevin Morris.

Hardworking group enjoy holiday dinner By Shelley Mart el An award night, holiday dinner, and meeting took place o n M o n d a y , November 28th, 2005 in the Conference Room at the Aux Trois Moulins Restaurant for the Northwoods Heart Health Coalition and their invited guests. Each of the three elementary schools in our community was awarded a certificate for being a Healthy School. Their goals are shared with the Coalition and representatives of each school were invited to the dinner in appreciation and recognition of this shared interest. Each school was also given a parachute game and sports equipment to encourage physical activity. Although Principal Michael Levesque of Our Lady
of Fatima School was unable to attend due to prior commitments, he is also a member of the Heart Health Coalition. Public Health Nurse Rachelle Martel accepted on behalf of Ecole Sacre Coeur as she is the French speaking staff member who has been working with the school. Betty O'Hearn was present to accept for Chapleau Public School. Her class has also been involved with a pilot project concerning healthy snacks with Robin Greer Chair of the Northwoods Heart Health Coaltion. Master of Ceremonies for the evening, Public Health Nurse Mary Boucher, gave a presentation on a large coloured target which was purchased and will be shared among the schools. She suggested that they could display it to
represent what kinds of snacks are being consumed by the students and how they rate health wise. The target is separated into three colours with the outside red ring representing very occasional snacks, the inner yellow ring for sometimes snacks, and the green bull's eye for anytime snacks. Mary Boucher commented about the Northwoods Heart Health Coalition, “Although we are a small group, we are a very hard working group.” The group, w h i c h h a s accomplished many heart healthy projects in our community, was served a very well deserved holiday dinner, complete with festive decorations and music before they went back to work planning their next move.
Mary Boucher presents the three elementary schools with certificates, and introduces them to the new Target program which the schools will take turns using to promote healthy snacking.
Enjoy your holidays.. and your family for years to come don’t drink and drive
All three elementary schools are given a parachute game and sports equipment in order to promote being active.

Chapleau High School “Kicking it up a notch” at the Bell /Nortel Luncheon.
Janessa Forget, Alanna Travis, Mike White, Miranda Purdy, Mike Byce, Kyle Maheu, Angela Leishman, Candace Walker, Chris
This past November the 9th, m a r k e d a n important step forward for Chapleau in the area of High Speed Internet capability with the launch of the Wireless Internet project. It was also an opportunity for the Hospitality Class of Chapleau High School to
provide and serve the meal for the guests at this event. This was a big challenge as the meal was not the traditional sit down type, as the guests would be mingling, and viewing the various booths after the presentations. Therefore, all items on the menu had to be finger type foods.
We had a single table with our sparkling pineapple punch, coffee, tea, and sandwiches buffet style served by three students. Six other students had carts with various hot finger foods circulating amongst the guests. T h e students were also dressed for the occasion in stylish uniforms. Laura Lapierre, the Senior Director of Corporate Affairs for Bell Canada, commented that “the food and service at the luncheon was fabulous - thanks so much to you and your students for taking such good professional care of us.”
