Canandaigua Academy Hosts Fourth Mental Health Walk
Research shows that vitamin D helps regulate a person’s mood and may help prevent depression. So, it was fitting that the sun was out on full display on a May Saturday during the annual Mental Health Walk at Canandaigua Academy.
with mental health. This lets them know they’re not alone and that our school deeply cares about them.”
Miriam Tricomi
In its fourth year, the event is held in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, with students from the high school’s Work2BeWell club leading the event. e school’s club is an offshoot of a national organization that started in Oregon. As a mental health and wellness program led by teens, the organization’s goal is to promote wellness across the country and normalize the discussion of mental health.
Eleventh-grader Miriam Tricomi has been a club member since last year and says they work to destigmatize mental health within the student body and the greater community and provide resources for those in need.
A er a local student took their own life a few years ago, many students were understandably hurting and wanted to raise awareness of mental health concerns in the school, which is how the club came to the school. High school guidance counselor Kristen Kelly adds, “A lot of the stuff that has come out of Work2BeWell has been unique to our school, like the Mental Health Walk.”
According to Tricomi, the students start the Walk’s planning process in January and work hard until the day of the event. While adult advisors like Kelly are available for the students during the planning process and handle getting general supplies and ordering t-shirts, the students do the bulk of the work, including planning for food, a DJ, raffles, and relevant vendors.
Tricomi says, “We start out with a really big spreadsheet, and we go in person to local businesses to see if they’d be interested in providing a monetary donation or raffle basket.” ey also use school resources, like the Bright Spot, a campus coffee shop run by special education students learning real-life skills.
Kelly wants people to know it’s important to talk about it. “Talk to your family, talk to staff members. It’s okay to ask for help. Don’t be silent; there are so many resources.”
As the students involved in Work2BeWell continue their work to support their student community and their mental health, Kelly and Tricomi agree that it’s been great seeing the walk become a source for positivity, with students from all grades supporting a common cause.
Tricomi adds, “Within our Work2BeWell group, we have students struggling with mental health. is lets them know they’re not alone and that our school deeply cares about them.”
“A lot of the stuff that has come out of Work2BeWell has been unique to our school, like the Mental Health Walk.”

Doctor Uses Dictation Machine During Patient’s Medical Exam
DEAR DR. ROACH: I have recently begun seeing a new physician who dictates into a recorder during my entire exam. I find this very off-putting and don’t know what to do. Here is an example:
Doctor: What brings you in today?
Me: I have a sore throat.
Doctor speaks into to the recorder: Patient presents a complaint of a sore throat today.
Doctor: When did it start?
Me: Thursday.
Doctor speaks into to the recorder: Patient states that it began Thursday. This back and forth into the recorder continues for the entire visit. I don’t feel as if I can really have a discussion about a concern with him when he continues to interrupt me to dictate. I feel as if I am bothering him while he is working if I want to add a detail or expound on what I said.
I understand physicians are under pressure to complete their charting, and their schedules are very full, but I also believe that building a rapport is important for the doctor-patient relationship. This is not possible when I am stopped every few sentences so he can dictate.
There is no head physician or practice manager to discuss this with. Do I bring it up directly with him or say nothing? Or should I find a new physician? -- N.F.H.
ANSWER: I would also feel frustrated if my doctor did this to me. It does make it seem like writing the note is more important than listening to the patient. Even the doctor who stays behind a computer screen to make notes may not seem present in the exam room, and I certainly have been guilty of this on occasion.
I will say that newer technology may help solve this problem. When I saw my own doctor last month, I noticed that he placed his phone down, but I didn’t pay any more attention until he showed me (after the visit) what the “AI scribe” wrote as a chart note without him doing anything. I was impressed with the quality and thoroughness of the note that was seemingly written without him having to change his usual questions. (I did agree to the use of this technology before the office visit.)
I have also had human scribes in the room when I’ve seen a doctor (dermatology in particular), and while it’s easier to connect with the doctor who is paying attention to me instead of their charting, having another human in the room does feel less private.
What your doctor does seems clunky and, in some ways, the worst of both worlds. It won’t be easy to bring it up with him directly, but this is the only alternative to finding a new doctor. Even if you do find a new doctor, your original doctor should know that his using a dictation machine is costing him patients.

DOG PARKS? SOMETIMES A BACKYARD IS BETTER
While areas like Brockport and Fairport offer public dog parks, not every pet enjoys the chaos of group play. If your dog is shy, older, or prefers calm environments, your own backyard or a private walking trail might be the perfect match. Towns like Avon, Honeoye Falls, and Churchville have beautiful, quiet neighborhoods and low-traffic streets where you and your pup can stroll stress-free. It’s okay if your dog isn’t social—just like people, they thrive in different settings.

CPR and first aid for dogs
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Several years ago, my family’s dog “Aker” passed away when his heart stopped. We were never sure why this happened, and I was just a kid. But I’ve always wondered if it was possible to perform CPR on a pet if this happens in the future. I adopted a puppy recently and I want to be able to help him whenever he’s hurt or injured. -- Becca R. in Boulder, Colorado
DEAR BECCA: You can perform CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) on a pet whose heart has stopped -- in fact, you can even get training on pet CPR and first aid through the Red Cross.
The process for pet CPR is very similar to that of human CPR. If a dog or cat becomes ill and collapses, you first check for breathing and heartbeat -- look to see if their chest is moving, and place your hand on their chest to feel for a heartbeat. If there is no heartbeat or breathing, place the pet on their right side and perform chest compressions directly over their heart at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. Give rescue breaths every 30 compressions. Keep performing CPR until they begin to breathe on their own, or until you reach the emergency vet clinic.
Those instructions don’t reveal some key factors, like: What if a dog is barrel-chested? How do you give rescue breaths to a large dog? Pet CPR and first-aid training will answer those questions, and help you feel confident that you can provide immediate care for illness, shock or injury until your pet can get to the vet for advanced care.
HOW SMALL BUSINESSES CAN MAKE THE MOST OF LOCAL MARKETS
Don’t overdo it. A cluttered stall at a festival or marketplace may make it difficult for consumers to browse or find what they’re looking for. NFIB® advises business owners to fill the space without it making it appear cluttered. Keep extra inventory on hand to restock displays as sales are made throughout the day.

Outwitting the scammers
My phone number appears to have gotten on another list somewhere, and the potential scammers are coming out of the woodwork -- again. I have my suspicions about where they could have found my number this time, but I can’t prove it, of course. All I can do is keep fending them off ... by not answering the phone if I don’t recognize the number or hanging up quickly if I’ve answered and realize it’s a scam. After a period of time, it will wind down as they don’t have the satisfaction of anyone answering or falling for their scheme.
I try to stay off their radar by keeping to a minimum the number of places that have my information, but sometimes it’s just required that you provide a phone number. We have to weigh the value of what we’ll get -- perhaps it’s the grocery store loyalty card that requires a phone number to sign up, or even for voter registration -- versus the potential abuse of our phone number when the scammers get it.
I keep a spare email address for the same reason. If forced to give one out, and not really trusting what will be done with it, I give the “trash” address and once a month go through and delete what generally turns out to be 95% spam email.
Then there are the passwords for the things we need to do online. We’re advised to have “strong” passwords, but what does that really mean? It means using all the types of keys on the keyboard: upper and lower case letters, symbols and numbers. Don’t go with something that’s too easy for a thief to figure out, like the name of your former high school.
We can outwit the thieves who want our money and peace of mind. It just takes a little work.

Campfire Safety
87% of wildfires were caused by humans in 2019, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. You can help prevent wildfires while camping by following these safety tips from the USDA Forest Service:
DO
• Make sure your campfire is a safe distance from tents or anything that could burn.
• Create a ring around the campfire using rocks, and make sure the area surrounding the ring is cleared of leaves and debris.
• Keep pets, kids and playing a safe distance from the campfire.
• Allow the campfire to burn out into ashes whenever possible.
• Use water to drown campfire ashes, then stir and add more water until the ashes are cold.
DON’T
• Don’t start a campfire if conditions are windy.
• Don’t bury warm coals or ashes in a campfire pit.
• Don’t use flammable liquids to start a campfire.
• Don’t burn glass, cans, plastic or garbage.
• Don’t leave a burning campfire or warm ashes unattended.

Kudos to Avon CSD and all the Organizers
A heartfelt thanks and congratulations goes out to everyone involved in making the Special Olympics event at Avon Central School on May 29th happen. It was a wonderful experience for the athletes and families. Watching the smiles of the athletes and hearing the crowd cheer them on was heartwarming. Great job hosting an event that created happy memories for so many people!
You Saved My Day!
As I was leaving a local laundromat and not watching where I was going, I tripped, fell off the curb and landed headfirst in the parking lot. I’d like to extend sincere and heartfelt thanks to the lady who immediately came to my aid, helped me to stand up and into my car.
Scams
I could see how people get scammed with fake phone calls, texts, or links. Some of them are clearly fake, but this past month I’ve gotten multiple spam calls about back taxes. I have an accountant, I know they’re fake calls, but I could see how someone would believe them or simply clicking a link can leave a pixel on your computer, grabbing your information. I’m not too old and could fall for some of these scams. Makes me feel bad for the elderly who could get these and not know any better.

Lack of sunlight: All plants need the proper ratio of sunlight to grow. Too much sunlight and plant blades can scorch. Too little sunlight and grass may turn brown and die. Although there are shade-tolerant varieties of grass, homeowners also can explore alternative landscapes. Work in a garden bed or create a design that utilizes gravel or mulch. Avoid aggressively pruning back trees to give the lawn more sunlight in that area, as this may just damage the trees.

THE RIGHT WAY TO LEAVE A JOB
Speak with a supervisor first. Make sure your boss or immediate supervisor learns of your plans to leave the job first. Do not gossip or suggest to coworkers that you’re ready to leave. It’s unprofessional if a supervisor hears of your impending departure from others.
HOW WOMEN CAN KEEP THEIR CAREERS GOING FORWARD
Define career expectations. Defining career expectations early on can be beneficial in various ways. Such expectations can guide career choices and provide a road map that women can utilize to stay the professional course. This can help women make decisions about their careers when they come to forks in the road. For example, if a path to promotion seems blocked, women can examine their established career expectations to help them decide if it’s time to seek new employment. Defining career expectations also can help women effectively communicate with mentors about their goals, and mentors can then use that information when offering guidance. Expectations need not be concrete, and it’s likely they will change over time. But they can serve as an important foundation for anyone from young female professionals to experienced executives looking to make changes or determine the next step in their careers.
