Capri’s Candy Creations ‘Creatively gifted’ is how remarkable local budding artist, Capri Boyd, could be described. The nine-year-old Surveyors Creek Public School student has developed her own signature abstract aesthetic based on her love of candy and has successfully sold thirteen artworks to a variety of art connoisseurs in the last month alone.

“Once I went to a lolly shop in Coffs Harbour that sells boiled candy.

They were making the candy and my friends and I watched as the cooks flipped it and shaped it. The colours were bright and the smell was delicious. My paintings remind me of those colours and patterns”, Capri explained. Her ‘Lollyscapes’, as she calls them, are created using acrylic paints and impasto, and some feature gold leaf. Capri has learnt that a successful painting has many layers, so in each work she looks for numerous tints and shades of colour overlapping to create a united whole. Multiple layers of paint are applied daily over a period of around three to four weeks until she is finished.

Capri’s love of art was nurtured by her mother, Bellinda, who is an art teacher and lecturer at Western Sydney University. Bellinda told the Glenmore Gazette, “Capri has been painting since she could sit up alone, first with her hands as a baby and then with tools as a toddler.

The home garage is set up as a studio space and Capri and her younger  The layers and colours look good enough to eat! | Image Supplied. Article: Sara Drebber

Australia recently claimed two medals on the penultimate day of the 2017 UCI Junior Track World Championships in Montichiari in Italy, with Glenmore Park’s Stephen Cuff earning silver in the men’s omnium.

Cuff executed a brilliant points race to climb up the standings and ride himself on to the podium with silver.

“It means a lot to me. Especially going from the start I had to coming back and finish off well,” Cuff said after a mixed day of racing.

“I knew I had to take a lap to put myself back in the game,” he added of his plan for the points race.

Fifth place finishes in the scratch and tempo races saw Cuff sitting third overall on 64 points at the half way point, 10 points from second and 14 from the gold medal position.

A 17th place finish in the elimination saw Cuff drop to ninth in the standings with 72 points, 16 from the podium. Undeterred Cuff took the points race head on. Collecting five points in the second sprint and storming away to take a lap and move in to the silver medal position.

Watching the field closely throughout the remaining laps before winning the final sprint to seal his silver medal.

Commenting on the experience of his first World Championships “It really opens your eyes to see how many good riders there are and have the opportunity to race them.”

The title went to Julius Johansen (Denmark-117), with Uladzislau Tsimoshyk (Belarus) taking bronze.

FAITH – GLENMORE PARK ANGLICAN CHURCH

Article Written + Submitted by: Rev John Lavender P: 4733 1635 A: Cnr William Howell Dr + Pritchard Pl, Glenmore Park W: www.glenmoreparkanglican.com.au Service Times: Sundays @ 8.30 and 10.15am, 5 + 7pm. Plus activities for adults + young people right throughout the week.

Spring Is In The Air! Spring is in the air! Isn’t it great? Winter morning chill well and truly gone. No more ice on the windscreen as you head off to work!

Spring is a great time to get outside and do some gardening – to clear out winter weeds and even grow your own veggies. How good are home grown tomatoes!

In the Bible’s book of Mark, Jesus tells a story about gardening.

He tells of a farmer who planted some seed. As the farmer scattered the seed, some fell on a path where it was eaten by the birds. Other seed fell on rocky places, but, because the soil was shallow, the plants withered and died. Some fell among weeds and thorn bushes, which strangled the plants as they tried to grow. Finally, seed also fell on good soil. Here it grew and produced a great crop.

Jesus told this story to challenge people to think about his message of life, hope and forgiveness.

Are you like the seed that fell on the path? Hearing Jesus’ message but not taking it seriously.

Are you like the seed falling on a rocky place? You’ve heard Jesus’ message and thought it was great, but when tough times came, you gave it up.

Perhaps you’re the seed falling among thorns. You’ve heard and responded to Jesus’ message. You were going nicely until you were drawn away by busyness or the short-lived, shallow pleasures of this life.

It is so sad to see people who waste Jesus’ life giving message.

Make sure you are like the seed falling on good soil – hearing and responding to Jesus! Accepting it and making Jesus the centre of your life.

Say “no” to the rocks, weeds and thorn bushes and don’t let them suck the life out of you.

Keep making sure you are the good soil, growing and flourishing as you keep Jesus at the centre of your life.

Would you like to know more? We’d love to see you at any of our mid week groups and our Sunday Church Services. Give us a call on 4733 1635, check us out on Facebook or online at www. gpa.church.

Glenmore Local Cleaning Up

Article Written + Submitted by: Pastor Paul Marshall W: www.fvc.org.au Sunday Service Time: 9:30am @ Regentville Public School

After witnessing the proliferation of solar panel installations within the Nepean region, one savvy local now plans to clean up... by helping locals make more from their investment in solar.

As electricity costs continue to rise, more and more Nepean locals are turning to solar power installations in the hope that they can dramatically reduce their power bills. The latest Climate Council report reveals there are over 343,000 households in New South Wales now with solar installations, and with the cost of solar dropping by 58% over the past five years, installing solar to save on power costs is a trend that is predicted to have continued growth.

Glenmore Park local, Ken Bailey, has recently capitalised on the region’s solar boom by joining a nationwide solar panel cleaning network and establishing EcoKleenSolar Nepean.

“I was researching about solar panels for myself and discovered that they need a regular clean and inspection program to ensure they are working efficiently. That’s when I realised there was really no one offering this professional service to locals in the Nepean region”, Mr Bailey said.

Bosch, a world leader in solar technology, specify in their care and maintenance manual that panels that are soiled or dirty in places should be cleaned on a half-yearly basis.

“But you have to take care, though”, said Mr Bailey. “The average home owner should not get up on their roof to clean their panels. Working at heights is risky and we don’t want people hurting themselves.”

Mr Bailey said that he was required to undertake specific training to get accredited to work safely at heights and use all of the necessary safety equipment before he was able to commence his business.

“It’s also very important to follow the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning procedures or you may void your warranty.”

We asked Mr Bailey why panels need cleaning; surely rain was enough to clean them every so often?

“Imagine how your car would look if you left it out in the weather for six months. Well, that’s how your solar panels will look as well. Anything preventing sunlight getting into the cells within the solar panels means that they are not performing to their optimum output. That means the build up of dust, dirt, salt, even bird droppings and road pollutants creates a surface layer of grime that needs to be regularly cleaned.”

It seems as though the region’s locals are fast learners. Mr Bailey says that as word spreads about how he is helping locals make more from their solar he is seeing a lot more of the region from the rooftops.

Decisions Eventually

Impact

Us

The decisions we make, good or bad, impact us eventually. They impact others too, and they impact at many different levels including the wellbeing of our souls.

A friend decided to take a well-paying job for the money.

Eventually the long hours impacted his family life and the money wasn’t enough to make up for the fact the job didn’t fulfil him. He was cashed-up but unhappy and disconnected from his wife and kids. Our decisions impact us eventually on many levels.

If we have a dream but decide not to pursue it because it seems too hard, eventually we might feel regret, that empty sense in our souls of “What if?”

A work colleague made a decision to forgive someone for something he had become bitter about. It set his soul free of the bitterness and the person in question of a lot of guilt. Had he decided not to forgive her, they would both still be captive to dark feelings in their souls.

Decisions can seem to be right at the time, but after the dust settles unforeseen consequences pop up that create hardship and rob us of peace. Of course, we can’t foresee all possible consequences, but often we don’t even ask searching questions that might give us the heads-up on at least some of the impacts. It is easier to run with our first sense of what is right or to play it safe and go with the crowd.

If we want to be well in our souls we should ask questions like: Beyond the surface outcome, what impact will the decision have at other levels and in terms of the wellbeing of our soul?

What will be the impact down the track after the initial dust settles? Who else will it impact and how?

This is true of personal decisions concerning our work, marriages, families, other relationships, and faith in God. It is also true of decisions made by our government on behalf of all Australians.

Go well, Paul

Local Brands Win Gold

Local branding studio, White River Design recently won a Sydney Design Award for the third time. Started from her back office almost 15 years ago, founder and Creative Director at White River Design (WRD), Glenmore Park resident Debbie O’Connor wanted to bring exceptional creative services to her clients. As the WRD client base has increased so has the studio’s reputation. Growth resulted in the move from home into their current location at The Creative Fringe, a co-working space on York Road in Jamisontown.

“This was an exciting move for us as it has allowed us to meet, network and collaborate on a number of exciting projects”, commented Mrs O’Connor.

One such collaboration was with hot desker Melinda Leyshon who is a copywriter. Melinda currently runs a successful copywriting business called Write Copy. Over the years she has become the go-to specialist for business awards submissions with an outstanding track record of a 93% success rate for her clients.

Melinda identified a gap in the market, and with so many businesses lacking the expertise or resources to develop quality submissions, Awards Agency was born.

“My first stop was White River Design. Not only do I love their work, but as they are also located at The Creative Fringe, it meant that I had got to know everyone in the team really well, trusted them and had quick and easy access to them during the branding process,” said Ms Leyshon.

The first response that Debbie O’Connor had was that Melinda was playing it safe. Debbie took Melinda through her unique system called Brand Personalities, which helps determine what personality a brand is. This online system has already been used by over 2000 small business owners across the world.

“The clarity that Brand Personalities gives our clients and our designers, is priceless. The personality of the brand determines what colours, fonts, shapes, language and tone gets used for the brand,” stated Mrs O’Connor. “We are able to create brands that have a much stronger connection with their clients, and it was this connection and message in the brand that we developed for Awards Agency that resulted in us winning our third Sydney Design Award.”

“I just love my brand and so do my clients!” exclaimed Ms Leyshon. “I launched Awards Agency at CopyCon, Australia’s first copywriting conference. In less than a day I was able to secure a huge list of copywriters keen to write for Awards Agency, and within the first week two multinational corporates engaged us for their submissions. This is proof that great branding works, and I’m stoked that my winning streak for awards continues.”

WARRAGAMBA POOLS OPENS SATURDAY 30TH OF SEPTEMBER! Be quick to book our “Learn to swim classes” We have changed our format to now include entry into our packages.

We will run classes on Saturday morning, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.

PARENTS CORNER

Article Written + Submitted by: Narelle Smith (Family Worker) Nepean Community + Neighbourhood Services P: 47218520 E: narelle@nepeancommunity.org.au FaceBook: Parenting in Penrith Blog: handsheartsminds.wordpress.com

How Do We Encourage Children To Take Responsibility For Their Own Actions?

It’s an issue that comes up frequently in the work I do with families. It’s particularly tricky because some of our leaders (ie, politicians) are not very good at taking responsibility for what they do or say.

Blame is a pattern that is set in childhood and can become a lifelong problem in relationships and interactions with other people (school, community, work). When we don’t accept responsibility for ourselves, we can develop a victim mentality (passive), or become too controlling (aggressive).

Here are a few things we can do…

Be a good role model. Apologise when you have made a mistake. Apologise for your part in any misunderstanding or disagreement.

Own your own emotions. Instead of saying “you make me angry”, say “I feel angry when …”. Don’t blame others for how you feel or for what you do.

Understand that blame is a dead-end street. It stops you from seeing other possibilities.

Be a calm and approachable parent. Parents who feel that they must punish their child for every mistake can create an environment where the child is too fearful to tell the truth.

Sometimes the best life lessons are those that have logical consequences.

Encourage children to be objective. When problem solving with your children, support them to state the problem in an objective way. Instead of saying “he isn’t following the rules” (blame) she could say “we are having trouble agreeing on the rules”. It’s a subtle change but an important one.

Guide your child to review the situation. Ask your child “what went well?”, “what could you do different next time?”, and “what did you learn from this situation?”. Lectures are rarely effective. The best solutions are the ones that the child comes up with.

Encourage your child to apologise for his/her part in the situation. Humility is a good value for children to learn.

Relationship repair is also a good skill for humans to practice.

What skills do you want your child to take with him/her into adulthood? Accepting responsibility develops into competence because children are more likely to learn from their mistakes, develop an understanding of cause and effect, and grow in their confidence to manage tricky situations.

Member for Mulgoa, Tanya Davies MP has announced that Life Education has received a grant worth $7,906 administered under the Community Building Partnership Program for the installation of a permanent touch screen monitor.

Tanya Davies was joined by Mr Matt Bulkeley, Life Education together with four students from Bethany Catholic School who were participating in the important educational program delivered by Life Education.

“The allocation of this grant to Life Education signifies the NSW Government’s commitment to supporting projects that increase the engagement of children with Life Education’s important health education program” Tanya Davies said.

“The funding will undoubtedly assist the Life Education Mobile Learning Centre which visits 2,000 children in Mulgoa annually” Tanya Davies said.

Breaking Down Bullying We are all familiar with the term ‘bullying’ but what actually constitutes bullying? And what happens when you feel your child is being bullied or being a bully and you are not there to deal with the situation? How can you support your child through this time?

Firstly, the NSW Department of Education (2017) defines bullying as “repeated verbal, physical, social or psychological behaviour that is harmful and involves the misuse of power by an individual or group towards one or more persons. Cyberbullying refers to bullying through information and communication technologies. Bullying can involve humiliation, domination, intimidation, victimisation and all forms of harassment including that based on sex, race, disability, homosexuality or transgender.

Bullying of any form or for any reason can have long-term effects on those involved including bystanders.” It is important to note that single incidents or fights between equals are not defined as bullying.

Children who are being bullied can often show signs like not wanting to go to school or changing their route to school.

They may have a decline in marks or their belongings may be damaged or missing. Mood swings, anxiety and frequent emotional outbursts may also be a sign; as are changes in their eating and sleeping patterns. If you notice these signs, it may not be due to bullying, but it is important to discuss what the cause is with your child and show them your support and understanding.

If your child is in a bullying situation it is important to report all instances to the school when they occur. Contact the school to make an appointment and work with them. The school staff and Principal have a duty of care to all students and the more information they receive in a timely manner, the more effectively they can resolve incidents. Article: Sara Drebber @ www.educatered.com.au

WATER SAFETY

Love to Swim Swim for Safety Swim for Life!

Article Written + Submitted by: Julie Fletcher Nepean Aquatic Centre + Eva Borys Swim School A: 16 – 19 Lambridge Place, Penrith P: 4730 8900 E: julie@nepeanswim.com.au W: nepeanaquaticcentre.com.au F: www.facebook.com/NepeanAquaticCentreandEvaBorys/

School Holiday Pool Party!

Swimming and Water Safety The Royal Lifesaving National Drowning Report was released last month, and unfortunately the news is not good. 291 people died as a result of drowning in Australia in the 2016/17 financial year - a 3% increase on the 282 drowning deaths in the previous period. 32% drowning deaths occurred in NSW, the highest state percentage nationwide.

Extremely concerning is the fact that drowning in children under 5 increased last year, with 29 children aged 0-4 years drowning, a 38% increase on the previous year. Greg Hunt MP, Minister for Health said “Australians love the water, it’s an important part of our culture. This is a sobering reminder to always actively supervise children around water, for people young and old to learn to swim and survive, to increase life jacket use, reduce alcohol consumption around water and to always respect the river”.

Justin Scarr, Royal Life Saving CEO said “Kids and families love pools, but they can pose a significant drowning risk to toddlers.

Royal Life Saving urges pool owners to actively supervise young children around water and check that the pool fence and gate is in good working order.”

The report found there were 12 drowning deaths in children aged 5-14 years. Justin Scarr said “Though many Australian children swim well, we still find too many kids can’t swim at all and have limited water safety knowledge.”

The 2017 report is the first to examine the impact of both fatal and non-fatal drowning, with Royal Life Saving estimating that there were an additional 685 non-fatal drowning incidents requiring hospitalisation in 2016/17. Many of these people will require long term medical assistance.

Royal Life Saving has developed a home pool safety checklist home owners can use to minimise the risks. You can find the checklist at: www.royallifesaving.com.au/families/at-home/ home-pool-safety/home-pool-safety-checklist.

JOINT MEDIA RELEASE Member for Mulgoa, Tanya Davies together with the Member for Penrith, Stuart Ayres issue the following joint statement: We wish to make clear our opposition to both the Fernhill Estate and the Wallacia Golf Club being used as future sites for cemetery developments.

It is important that the amenity of Wallacia and the Mulgoa Valley be maintained. It was never envisaged by the local community that large-scale cemeteries would be developed on either of these sites.

Whilst we recognise the need for future work in relation to identifying appropriate cemetery sites under the planning framework, developments such as these do not meet community expectations.

We will continue to advocate within the New South Wales Government for no cemetery developments to take place within the Wallacia and Mulgoa Valley communities.

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases – Burn Your Bones!

2.4 million Australians (10%) suffer irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). 70,000 Australians are afflicted by the more serious inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) - ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn’s disease (CD). All are at higher risk of developing osteopenia or osteoporosis. Depending on the study 22-77% of IBD patients suffer osteopenia, 17-41% osteoporosis, with a 40% higher risk of fractures. Here are some facts about these diseases: 1. IBS’ cause is unknown. Patients suffer abdominal pain, cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhoea or constipation (sometimes alternating), mucus in the stool. IBS involves no inflammatory lesions in the bowel.

2. Both UC & CD do involve chronic inflammatory lesions in the bowel.

3. UC affects the large bowel only. Cause is unknown. Signs & symptoms vary with disease severity but include abdominal pain & cramping, rectal pain, urgency to defecate, inability despite urgency, diarrhoea oft with blood or pus, weightloss, fatigue, fever, failure to thrive in children. Stool culture for bacteria, ova, or parasites is negative.

4. CD may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. Cause is also unknown. Signs & symptoms vary with disease severity but include abdominal pain, diarrhoea (which may be bloody if inflammation is severe), dehydration, fever, and weight loss, anaemia plus many nonintestinal issues including skin & autoimmune disorders.

These diseases can lead to poor bone health due both to the diseases & their treatment.

IBS is often treated with anti-inflammatory corticosteroids such as prednisone. These have been shown to reduce Ca absorption, increase Ca loss and both impair and hasten the death of bone building cells called osteoblasts. This significantly

increases fracture risk, although treatment cessation may allow normalisation of fracture risk. Budesamide (poorly systemically absorbed) is now often used to reduce these effects. Methotrexate can also cause osteoporosis both at low & high dose.

One common feature with all these disorders is malnutrition & nutritional deficiency due to: 1. Dietary restrictions required 2. Disease activity a. Blood loss, b. Chronic diarrhoea, c. Loss of specific absorptive sites d. Increased pro-inflammatory hormones production (TNF-alpha) - induce loss of appetite and cachexia 3. Surgery [arrow] loss of intestinal surface 4. Medications Protein-energy malnutrition has been reported in all three disorders but is more frequently observed in patients with CD (50-70%) than in patients with UC (18-62%). IBD can lead to deficiencies of: 1. Minerals: iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium & potassium; 2. Vitamins: B 9, B12, A, C, D, E & betacarotene have all been reported.

IBS patients, due to frequent dietary restrictions, are also at risk of such deficiencies long term.

Over the last few months, we’ve seen how important many of these nutrients are to bone health, so you can appreciate why people with bowel disorders may suffer more osteopenia & osteoporosis. Nutritional approaches to these diseases are available, come see us at the clinic.

PAWS A WHILE

Article Written + Submitted by: Camille Brandt from Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital A: 377 Wentworth Rd, Orchard Hills P: 4736 2027

National Veterinary Nurseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day On Friday 13th October 2017 we plan to celebrate National Veterinary Nurseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital.

It is great to acknowledge the hard work and efforts of our Veterinary Nurses. The nurses do a lot of work behind the scenes that you do not see or hear about. The nurses monitor the patients whilst under general anaesthetic, medicate animals whilst in hospital, answer enquiries, clean the hospital, and ensure the smooth running of the Veterinary hospital. Without the Veterinary Nurses, we would not be able to do our job as a Veterinarian.

We plan to celebrate by having a long lunch with enough food to feed an army.

We have 8 nurses at the hospital, and I hope you get to know them as you come and visit our hospital.

Renai Lewis â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Practice Manager Renai has grown up in the Penrith area and has seen many changes over the years. Renai joined the team in August 2014 where she was warmly welcomed by all.

Renai has 3 furbabies including: Tasha (Labrador x Staffy), Ally (Golden Labrador) and Cooper (a naughty young learning Labrador).

Renai adores her pets and spends every spare minute with them, when she is not busy being a wife and mum to 4 adult children.

Karen Smith - Senior Nurse Karen has previously worked for a number of years with Camille and Shelly as a Veterinary Nurse Manager at a previous Veterinary clinic.

Karen is excited to join the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in March 2017.

Karen had a long Veterinary Nurse career, before taking time away to start a family. Karen has a passion for dog behaviour and dog training. Karen successfully ran Puppy Preschool and Dog Training in the Southern Highlands.

Karen lives in the Southern Highlands with her daughter and young whippet Toby.

Kirsti Lane After 20 years of Veterinary Nursing, Kirsti went back to TAFE to update her qualifications. Kirsti graduated from Veterinary Nursing Certificate IV (again) in June 2016. Kirsti enjoyed the study and found that the basics had not changed, but technology had certainly advanced.

Kirsti enjoys spending her time off with her daughter and husband (and her animals of course) camping, bushwalking and trying to keep fit! They have 3 dogs (Roxy, Rory and Crumbs), 2 cats (Ivory Grace and William Wallace), 3 fish, 2 birds and several hermit crabs!

Rachel Kent Rachel graduated as a Veterinary Nurse in December 2012 at Richmond TAFE. She enjoys spending time with her friends and family when she is not at work. Rachel has a much loved Labrador Molly, and Jinx the cat.

Rachel is currently studying the Certificate IV in Companion Animal Services at the Delta Institute, which is an animal behaviour and training course.

Rachel began teaching the Puppy Preschool at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in December 2015. Rachel is enjoying the study and the hands on experience with Puppy Preschool.

Jessica Hollman Jessica completed TAFE work experience with us and joined our team in Jan 2015 as a kennel hand.

Jessica completed the Veterinary Nursing Certificate IV in July 2016.

Jessica has had many different kinds of animals in her lifetime currently owning her river turtle Sheldon, a blue tongue Olly, her cockatiel Toggle, many different fish and a Norwegian Elkhound named Tahoe.

Jessica loves working at Orchard Hills and is looking forward to working towards her dream job as a Veterinarian.

Carly Hopkins Carly has been Veterinary Nursing since 2002, completing her studies in 2006.

Carly started working at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in 2010 and left for maternity leave in 2011. After 5 years as a stay at home mum, Carly is very excited to be back working with the team.

Carly has 3 fur babies, Jessie a 13 year old German Shepherd, Hemi a 7 year old BullTerrier and Dixie a 1 year old Swiss Shepherd.

In her spare time, Carly loves spending time with her family, going to the beach, going to concerts and walking her fur babies.

Sophie Mead Sophie has been completing her TAFE work experience with us for her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing since June 2016, and joined our team in October 2016 as a Kennel Hand. As well as studying to become a Veterinary Nurse, Sophie is currently completing her High School Certificate, in the hopes to be accepted to study Veterinary Science in the coming years at university.

Sophie has owned a variety of pets throughout her life but has always had a particular fondness for the cats in the family. At the moment, Sophie has 2 dogs (Teddy and Trixie), as well as her 3 very spoiled cats (Angus, Casper and Tallulah).

Orchard Hills has become a second home to Sophie, and she loves being able to see the smiling faces of colleagues, clients, and patients alike.

Chelsea Burcher Chelsea is currently completing her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Richmond TAFE. She started her work placement at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital in January 2017 and joined our team in August 2017 as a Kennel Hand.

Chelsea has always wanted to work with animals since a young age and has one dog, Meg an 8 year old Jack Russell Terrier.

Chelsea loves working at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital and being part of the team. She is excited to see what the future holds.

Please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital. Call 4736 2027 to make an appointment.

FROM EDITOR FROM THE THE EDITOR

Emergency Services

Here we are at the tail end of the year, with less than 90 days until Christmas (yes! I said it).... we start to see plenty of local and wonderful festivities being held.

This month we cover off all the important topics; from sporting champions, spectacular art trails, bullying and children taking responsibility for their own actions.

I am constantly amazed (or should I be?) by the exceptional talent found here, in and amongst our wonderful community, from talented (junior) artists (in our lead story) and the amazing excellence that shines in design and creativity (page 7).

That's right..... right here where we live! as Tina Turner would have put it, 'Simply the Best!'.

On page 10, Julie shares some alarming statistics about drowning's; highlighting a very pivotal message of water safety for young, old and all in between.

Everything is either an opportunity to grow, or an obstacle to keep you from growing. The best part is, you get to choose! (Dr. Wayne Dyer) Enjoy your Community News.
