ROCKWOOD PHARMACY 178 Alma Street, Rockwood ON (519)856-9486 *Smokers who switch to a light cigarette erroneously think because they are inhaling less nicotine, they are reducing the risk of lung cancer. Not so. Its not the nicotine that is the problem. Its the hundreds of toxic chemicals in the smoke that causes the cancer. Smoking light cigarettes often results in smoking more just to keep up the nicotine levels in the body. Best advice: Dont smoke at all. *The SPF (Sun Protection factor) is a number used to measure sun protection ability in sunscreen lotions. Its a measure of how much sun radiation will produce skin redness on skin protected by sunscreen compared to skin that is not. A lotion with at least an SPF of 15 blocks 93% and a lotion with an SPF of 30 blocks 97%. Use a lotion with an SPF of at least 15. *Talking about sun exposure, dont forget to protect your eyes during the sunny days of summer. Use sunglasses that block at least 95% of UVB and 60% of UVA rays. This type of eye protection can reduce your risk of cataracts. *Many people take antioxidant vitamins like vitamins C and E and the mineral selenium. They feel it protects them against disease and feel it lowers the risk of cancer. However dont take these products if you are being treated for cancer with drugs or radiation. You may not get the full effect of the therapy. *Looking for a hassle-free pharmacy to call your own? Give our brand of pharmacy a try.

Hillside Festival gets the go ahead At their last meeting, Guelph/Eramosa council agreed to designate the 23rd annual Hillside Community Festival as a Community Festival. This designation is required to obtain a special occasion permit. The festival will take place from July 28 to 30 at the Guelph Lake Conservation Area. Forty-five artists will play a wide assortment of mu- sic on five stages. Saturdays shows are already sold-out. Tickets are available for Fri- day and Sunday, for such acts as Feist, the Constantines and Corb Lund. The festival is a non-profit organization with four staff and 1,000 volunteers. Pro- ceeds from past festivals helped to build a permanent stage on Guelph Island. It has a living roof, which is made up of indigenous plants that would be growing where the stage was constructed. According to manager Ra- chel Thompson, the living roof was constructed to educate the public on envi- ronmentally sustainable and healthy building choices. HVAC purchase approved Brad Roelofson, manager of property and leisure ser- vices, requested that council approve the purchase of an HVAC system for Rockmosa Community Centre to help solve air quality problems. In May 2005, the township contracted BSI to investigate mold found at the centre. High humidity in the basement and inadequate ventilation were reported to cause an above average level of carbon di- oxide, but still within Health Canada guidelines. The re- port states, These values should be used with caution as an indicator of acceptable indoor air quality. RJ Burnside and Associ- ates were asked to investigate upgrading the heating and air ventilation system. They sub- mitted a plan last September, with drawings completed last April. Of ten local contrac- tors invited, two submitted a bid: Oosterveld Heating and Air at $52,465.31 and Rite Way Mechanical Ltd. at $67,388.60, including GST. The project is over budget by $10,000, so councils approval was required to pro- ceed. Council approved the quote from Oosterveld Heat- ing and Air at $52,465.31. Rockwood Cemetery reports Paul Taylor, manager of Woodlawn Memorial Park, provided an annual report for Rockwood Cemetery to council last meeting, includ- ing current fee schedules. In 2005, the cemetery pro- vided six full size and nine cremation interments. Inter- ment rights for five full size graves were purchased, and $1950 was deposited into the Care and Maintenance Trust Fund. Four foundations for monuments were installed with $400 deposited into the Care and Maintenance Trust Fund for Memorials. Staff cut and trimmed the five-acre turf area eight times and pesticide was applied to the whole cemetery. A decoration day was also held last July. The memorial restoration crew inspects, straightens and putties the monuments an- nually, dealing with safety issues first. Five foundations are due to be replaced. Unsafe monuments were laid down temporarily until repairs are made.
