THE NEW TANNER12THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2010 Register for Fall, Winter funThe Superior Glove Splash Pad was great fun for the sum-mer but will be shut down after Labour Day weekend. Its Why is recreation and time to fi nd Fall and Winter activities.exercise important?Well you know what they say: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. In addition to helping you lead a more interesting life, recreation is important because of the many health, social and educational benefi ts it can provide. Even the word itself recreation indicates that something in us is lost through our daily grind that needs to be replenished. We need to be re-created periodically, replenished, built back up after a time of hard work.Just as important is regular exercise and many people, especially personal trainers, suggest that you do some aerobic exercise and some strength training every week. If you need to lose weight, you should decrease calories in your diet and exer-cise more. You should do both, because if you restrict your calories too much, your body will go into survival mode, slow down your metabolism, and that will defeat the purpose of eating less. Also, if you exercise too much, you can cause injury to yourself and not be able to continue or just get tired of doing so much. The practical solution is some of both. Here is some information on calories burned during certain types of activities:Walking briskly will burn 100 calories per mile.Jogging will burn 100-120 calories per mile.Running will take off 120 calories or more per mile. Aerobic exercise burns 220 calories in 30 minutes.Elliptical training will burn 280 in 30 minutes. Stationary bikes burn 575 calories in 60 minutes.Cross-country ski machines burn 642 calories in one hour.Rowing machines use 770 calories every hour.REGISTER NOWfor the ACTON FALL FAIR 2010ARE YOU THE NEXTPARADEMISS ACTON FALL FAIR?(11am line up and 12 noon start on ACTON BLVD)thSeptember 18 The Acton Agricultural SocietyThis years theme isis now accepting entries for theWHEAT2010 Miss Acton Fall Fair PageantFriday, September 17, 2010, at 8:00 p.m.OUTSTANDING IN OUR FIELDat thePrizes in 5 categories, We are looking for including: Dufferin Rural Heritage Community CentreBEST DECORATED FLOAT ENTRIES, in Prospect Park.BIKES & TRICYCLES BANDS, GROUPS etc.and BEST FLOAT!If you are between the ages of 16 and 22, attend Acton High School or live in Acton, Limehouse, Ballinafad or Rockwood areas, you are invited to be a Contestant!!!For reservations/information please contact Jim Warrington - 519-853-3707More information is available at Blooms Away Flower Shop,www.actonfair.ca or Email: missactonfallfair@hotmail.comThe best little fair in OntarioOrganized bySponsored byCONTESTANTS MUST BE AVAILABLE WED. & THURS @ 7 p.m.The Acton Agricultural Deadline for entries is 9 p.m., Friday, September 10, 2010Society
