(A) Denturist Georgetown Denture Clinic, 18 Church Street, Georgetown, Ontario ACTON HOCKEY & SKATING SCHOOL 905-877-2359 (Across from the Library and Cultural Centre) Registration For Ages 4 to 9 years Bus service extended for Churchill Estates kids Brookville Public School students living in the Churchill Estates subdivision recently got an extension to their bus service. At a recent Halton District School Board meeting, trustees voted to approve a recommendation brought to the board by Milton trustee Donna Danielli. Concerns were raised earlier this year as two possible routes from the residential community to the school were considered unsafe by parents. The Guelph Line-located school and homes are within the 1.6 km walk-to distance from each other. However, the routes for those students are either through a wooded area with a plowed walkway or alongside Guelph Line, which is an arterial road with high speeds of traffic. Trustees voted to approve the continuation of the busing, and that busing will be provided until there is a significant change in the area that addresses the aforementioned safety concerns. Janice VanBakel, Denise Hutton and Deborah Weenink told trustees the rural route has parts that are not within line of sight or hearing of homes, there is a known presence of foxes and coyotes and students walk to school before sunrise during the winter months. . . .

Hearing loss can occur as a result of a one-time exposure to a loud sound, or repeated exposure to loud sounds. However, some individuals will be more suspectible to NIHL and there is really no way to tell who these individuals are: Sounds louder than 80 decibels (dB) are considered dangerously loud and could potentially cause a NIHL. Below is a list of the dB level of some sounds that may be encountered during the course of a day. 60 db Average conversation level 70 dB Vacuum cleaner 80 dB Alarm Clock 90 dB Lawnmower 100 db Chain saw 110 dB Rock Music 120 dB Jet during take-off 130 dB Jackhammer 140 dB Firearms At the Georgetown Hearing Clinic we specialize in custom fitted hearing protection.
