(StatePoint) Camping is always a great time, but especially when you’re well-equipped. Here’s what to take along with you on your next overnight into the great outdoors: • SEE BETTER: Visibility is everything on the trail. So if you’re leaving the campsite for a hike or trek, it’s important to prep for a safe transition from day to night in the event you don’t make it back before nightfall. During the day, wear polarized sunglasses to reduce glare and offer UV protection. Then, before the sun goes down, break out a lightweight headlamp to illuminate your way. • SUPPORT YOUR TREK: You can support your active outdoor activities with wearable tech. Whether you plan to hike, rock climb or canoe, the innovative design of Casio PRO TREK watches offer a range of features making them a good choice. The PRTB50 Series adds Bluetooth capabilities that enable data communication with a smart-
phone running the PRO TREK Connected app for the ultimate in ease of use, while the Quad Sensor system packs a compass, altitude/barometer and temperature measurements, along with an accelerometer tracking step count, into a compact configuration. • CAMPFIRE ENTERTAINMENT: Put a fresh spin on the traditional campfire sing-along by bringing along a portable keyboard. With a Casiotone keyboard, you can simply grab the carrying handle, pop in six AA batteries and make music any time, anywhere. A Dance Music Mode feature divides the keyboard into different instrument sections like drums, bass and more. By playing different combinations of keys, you can create and instantly remix dance music using 50 built-in styles, as well as familiar effects like stutter and filter. • GREAT MEALS: Speaking of the campfire, you only need a few simple tools to cook right over the open flame. With a portable grate, you can create a makeshift grill for burgers, hot dogs and other barbecue favorites. Or simplify even further by wrapping foods in aluminum foil and baking them directly in the flames. Remember, cooking under the stars doesn’t need to be boring, so be sure to bring your favorite herbs, spices and hot sauces to enhance that

Although you sleep in Heaven now You’re not that far away My heart is full of memories And you’re with me everyday You lived your life with meaning And with a smile upon your face A world that was full of happiness Is now an empty place People say that only time Will heal a broken heart But just like me and you It has been torn apart I know you are at peace now And in a place where you are free Meet me at the Pearly Gates When Heaven calls for me Its been one year since you left us and I miss you oh so much so I’m sending a dove to Heaven with a parcel on its wings... Be careful when you open it it’s full of special things. Inside are a million kisses wrapped up in a million hugs… To say how much I miss you and to send you all my love. I hold you close within my heart and there you will remain… To walk with me throughout my life until we meet again. You are my Sunshine and love of my life, Your One and Only, Rosie
wood-fired flavor. • BETTER SLEEP: To get recharged for another day of outdoor activity, make sure you have the right equipment for comfortable sleep. Place an air mattress under your sleeping bag for an additional layer between you and the hard ground. Many models these days have built-in pumps for quick set-up. As for the sleeping bag itself, be sure to check the temperature rating and ensure it matches the overnight weather forecast for your trip. From sunrise to sunset, you can make sure every aspect of your camping trip is well-equipped to be the best one yet.

Sparrow Ionia Hospital, Ionia County Health Department to hold COVID-19 testing in Saranac SARANAC, MI – Sparrow Ionia Hospital and the Ionia County Health Department are combining to offer COVID-19 nasal swab testing at a special one-day event in Saranac on Wednesday, Aug. 12. The testing will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church parking lot, 6070 David Highway, Saranac. A nasal swab (or PCR) test determines whether or not you have an active COVID-19 infection at the time the sample is collected. It’s a molecular test that is reviewed
at Sparrow Laboratories. Nearly 200 people were swabbed at similar events held recently in Ionia, Belding and Lake Odessa. Residents can attend without having a doctor’s order in advance. No money will be collected onsite and Sparrow will bill those with medical insurance. “Sparrow Ionia Hospital has been working collaboratively with the Ionia County Health Department to ensure the health and safety of our community,” said Sparrow Ionia President Linda Reetz. “Again, the
goal is to protect the community we serve as our county and state begin to reintroduce people back into the workforce.” Those seeking more information can contact the ICHD at 616.527.5341. “One of the most effective ways to contain any epidemic is widespread testing,” said Ionia County Health Officer Ken Bowen. “We encourage anyone who has symptoms, who may have been exposed, or who will be returning to work to get tested.”
