Honor, sacrifice and

more Bureau County residents

won’t have to travel too far to catch one of the several

Memorial Day services, host-ed throughout the county.

Nearly every town and village is ready to conduct Memo-

rial Day services with special speakers, patriotic music, 21-gun salutes and more,

while area residents will be busy tending to graves of

loved ones. Memorial Day, formerly known as Decora-

tion Day, is a day to remem-ber the men and women who died while serving in the U.S.

Armed Forces. It originated after the American Civil War to honor the Union and Con-

federate soldiers who died. By the 20th century, the

holiday had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in military

service. Memorial Day should not be confused with Veter-ans Day — Memorial Day is a day to remember the men and women who died while serving, while Veterans Day celebrates the service of all

U.S. military veterans, living or dead.

Beware of Memorial Day scamsMemorial Day is a time to honor those who serve

and remember those who have died in war. But sadly, it has also become a key opportunity for scammers to target those who are serving or have served their nation, especially elderly veterans. As Memorial Day approaches, the Better Business Bureau urges consum-ers and donors to be aware of scammers who feed off the military.

BBB Military Line, the military arm of the Better Business Bureau, provides free resources, such as financial literacy information, access to BBB services and scam alerts, and complaint and dispute resolution for all branches of the U.S. military.

BBB warns of the following scams that are directed at service members:

• Veterans’ benefits buyout plans: This buyout plan will offer a cash payment in exchange for a disabled veteran’s future benefits or pension payments. The cash amount is only about 30 to 40 percent of what the veteran is entitled to. These buyout plans can be struc-tured in several different ways, so research thoroughly before signing anything over.

• Fake rental properties: Stolen photos of legitimate rental properties are used in advertisements that prom-ise military discounts and other incentives. Service members will have to pay a fee via wire transfer for security payments or a key to the property — in the end they will receive nothing.

• Phony jury duty summons: A caller clams to work for the local court system and states that the service member did not show up for jury duty and now has a warrant out for their arrest. When the victim says they

never got a summons, the caller will ask for a credit card number or Social Security number to clear up the matter.

• Misleading car sales: Websites posting classified ads will offer false discounts for military personnel or claim to be from soldiers who need to sell their vehicle fast, since they have been deployed. Upfront fees will be required via wire transfer, or the vehicle will have problems after purchase.

• Expensive life insurance policies: Members of the military are often the targets of high pressured sales pitches that offer unnecessary, expensive life insurance policies. Solicitors may make false statements regard-ing the benefits that these policies offer.

BBB recommends the following tips to avoid scams:• Do your research. Get as much information as you

can about a business or charity before you pay. Check out a business’ BBB Business Review at bbb.org or a charity’s Charity Report at give.org.

• Don’t wire transfer money to anyone you don’t know. Money sent via wire transfer is practically impos-sible to track. Pay by credit card whenever possible, since you can dispute charges easily.

• Protect your computer. Don’t click on links within unsolicited emails. Don’t enter personal information on unfamiliar websites. Make sure that you have updated anti-virus software installed and use a firewall at all times.

• Put an Active Duty alert on your credit reports when deployed. Doing so will minimize the risk of iden-tity theft because creditors and businesses cannot issue or grant credit until verifying identity.

Older Americans Month: May 2013A meeting with the National Council of Senior Citi-

zens resulted in President John F. Kennedy designating May 1963 as Senior Citizens Month, encouraging the nation to pay tribute to older people across the coun-try. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter’s proclamation changed the name to Older Americans Month, a time to celebrate those 65 and older through ceremonies, events and public recognition.

• 16.1 percent - The percentage of people 65 and older who were in the labor force in 2010, up from 12.1 per-cent in 1990. These older workers numbered 6.5 million in 2010, up from 3.8 million in 1990. By 2011, this rate had increased to 16.2 percent.

• 22.3 percent - The percentage of people 65 and older in Alaska in the labor force in 2011. Labor force partici-

pation rates for people 65 years and over ranged from 22.3 percent in Alaska to 12.5 percent in West Virginia.

• 44.3 percent - Among those 65 and older who worked in 2011, the percentage who worked full-time, year-round. Among states and equivalents, the District of Columbia had the highest rate, at 62.2 percent.

Entertainment

Area chefs to help local schools affected by flooding

Girl Scout cookies are the featured guestsLASALLE/UTICA —

Girl Scouts of Central Illinois (GSCI) will host a night of “sweet firsts” as local chefs are chal-lenged to create desserts inspired by Girl Scout cookies. “Desserts First” will feature sweet concoc-tions designed by chefs from the LaSalle County area. In addition to the sampling of desserts, the night will feature din-ner provided by MarkAl-len’s American Kitchen, a prize wall, raffles and entertainment, all to benefit local schools in LaSalle and Bureau coun-ties that were recently affected by flooding.

“Girl Scouts of Cen-tral Illinois serves nearly

1,400 girls in LaSalle and Bureau counties, so this disaster hits home for us,” GSCI CEO Pam Kovacevich said. “Fortu-nately, there is strength in numbers, and as an organization, we can come together to help our sisters who were displaced from their schools. Cookies are our calling card, so it seems appropriate to host a fun-draiser event around this tradition, and we hope the community joins us for the event.”

The chefs will put their original desserts to the test in a friendly com-petition scored by local celebrity judges, includ-ing Judge Cynthia Rac-cuglia, ophthalmologist Dr. Libby Kristal, Judge Karen Eiten, and radio host Tim “The Wizzard.”

Chefs from MarkAl-len’s American Kitch-en, Cajun Connection, Skoog’s Steakhouse, Brandy’s, Kelsey’s Kakes, Tiers of Joy and Corner 230 will be creating the one-of-a-kind desserts.

The event, produced by Girl Scouts of Cen-tral Illinois in order to benefit recently-flooded communities, is from 6 to 8 p.m. June 12 at Celebrations 150 in Utica. Tickets are $30 per person and $15 for children 16 and under (including Desserts First fun patch for attending Girl Scouts). Sponsor-ships ranging from $100 to $2,500 are available. For additional informa-tion, contact Samantha Greenburg at 309-662-5384, ext. 1106, [email protected].

Children’s summer drama camp registrations are being acceptedPRINCETON — The

Prairie Arts Council has announced registration for the 11th annual chil-dren’s summer drama camp for children enter-ing grades 2-9.

Camp runs for three hours, Monday through Friday, for two weeks. Two camp sessions will run June 10-21, one from 9 a.m. to noon and the other from 2 to 5 p.m. There will also be a morn-ing camp running July 8-19 if there is sufficient interest. The camp cost is $85 with special rates for siblings. Need-based scholarships are also available upon request for those who meet the cri-teria.

Each camp session culminates in the perfor-mance (noon and 5 p.m. June 21 and noon July 19) of an original play written specifically for the camp-ers and, to a large extent, tailored to the needs and abilities of the campers. Campers in each session of camp name their own production. Children get the hands on experience of creating a show, from set and light work to cos-tuming to performing.

Camp activities include demonstrations on vari-ous aspects of theater, such as stage makeup, costuming, set design and

lighting (often given by guest speakers). Campers also learn and play the-ater and improvisational games like you might see on the television show “Whose Line Is It Any-way?” and good, old fash-ioned “camp” games like Telephone. Snacks are served daily.

“Children’s theater programming at PAC has always been about more than just theater skills,” said David Gorenz, the-ater director. “We strive to offer a safe, wholesome environment in which children can learn, grow, and have fun. Over the many years that we have run the summer drama camps as well as other

children’s drama program-ming, we have been privi-leged to witness the trans-formation of many of our children from ducklings to beautiful, talented swans. Fostering the growth of our community’s children is the greatest benefit of PAC children’s theater programming.”

To register, contact camp director Rachel Gorenz at 815-876-6284 or email [email protected]. Payment is expected by June 1. Checks should be made payable to The Prairie Arts Council. Checks and registration forms can be returned to Rachel Gorenz, 1009 S. Main St., Princeton, IL 61356.

Outdoor living

Tick ... tick ... tick ...coming indoors. Always fol-low label directions; do not misuse or overuse repel-lents. Always supervise children in the use of repel-lents.

Walk in the center of trails, so weeds do not brush against you. In camp-ing areas, individuals who sit on the ground or disturb leaf litter on the forest floor may encounter ticks.

Check yourself, children and other family members every two to three hours for ticks. Most ticks sel-dom attach quickly and rarely transmit disease organisms until they have been attached four or more hours. If your pets spend time outdoors, check them for ticks, too.

If ticks are crawling on the outside of clothes, they can be removed with mask-ing tape or cellophane tape. A ring of tape can be made around the hand by leav-ing the sticky side out and attaching the two ends. Ticks will stick to the tape which can then be folded over and then placed in the trash.

Remove any tick prompt-ly. The mouthparts of a tick are barbed and may remain embedded and lead to infection at the bite site if not removed promptly. Do not burn the tick with a match or cover it with petroleum jelly or nail pol-ish. Do not use bare hands to remove the tick because tick secretions may carry disease. The best way to remove a tick is to grasp it firmly with tweezers as close to the skin as pos-sible and gently, but firmly, pull it straight out. Do not twist or jerk the tick. If

tweezers are not available, grasp the tick with a piece of tissue or cloth or what-ever can be used as a bar-rier between your fingers and the tick. Ticks can be safely disposed of by plac-ing them in a container of soapy water or alcohol, sticking them to tape or flushing them down the toilet.

Wash the bite area and your hands thoroughly with soap and water and apply an antiseptic to the bite site.

If you have an unex-plained illness with fever, contact a physician. Be

sure to tell the physician if you have been outdoors in areas where ticks were present or traveled to areas where tickborne diseases are common.

Make sure the property around your home is unat-tractive to ticks. Because ticks are sensitive to dry conditions and do not thrive in short vegetation, they are seldom a prob-lem in well-maintained lawns. Keep your grass mowed and keep weeds cut. Clean up items that attract rodents which can carry ticks, such as spilled birdseed, and hiding places

like old wood piles. If ticks are present in vegetation along the edge of the prop-erty, insecticides labeled for control of ticks can be applied to small areas of high weeds that cannot be mowed. Often, one or two applications per season will be adequate to control ticks in these areas.

Free-roaming dogs and cats are much more likely to encounter ticks than those that are confined to the home or yard. If ticks are found on pets, contact your veterinarian for infor-mation about an appropri-ate tick treatment.

If you experience a rash that looks like a bull’s-eye, or a rash anywhere on the body or an unexplained ill-ness accompanied by fever following a tick bite, you should consult your physi-cian and explain that you were bitten by a tick. Dis-ease carried by ticks can be treated with antibiotics. However, the type of anti-biotic can vary and indi-viduals should be treated early in the infection.

For more information, visit the Bureau-Putnam County Health Depart-ment website at www.bpchd.org.

The Bureau/Putnam County Health Depart-ment has provided the fol-lowing information to help improve residents’ chances of enjoying a tick-free sum-mer.

Ticks are out now, and they are hungry. In Illi-nois, adult ticks are most active in April, May and June. Ticks wait for a host from the tips of grasses and shrubs (not from trees). When brushed by a mov-ing animal or person, they quickly let go of the veg-etation and climb onto the host. Ticks can only crawl; they cannot fly or jump. Ticks are among the most efficient carriers of disease because they attach firmly when sucking blood; they feed slowly; and may go unnoticed for a consider-able time while feeding.

The best way to protect yourself against tickborne illness is to avoid tick bites. This includes avoiding known tick-infested areas. However, if you live in or visit wooded areas or areas with tall grass and weeds, follow these precautions to help prevent tick bites and decrease the risk of disease:

Wear protective cloth-ing such as long-sleeved shirts, long trousers, boots or sturdy shoes and a head covering. (Ticks are easier to detect on light-colored clothing.) Tuck trouser cuffs in socks. Tape the area where pants and socks meet so ticks cannot crawl under clothing.

Apply insect repellent containing 10 percent to 30 percent DEET primarily to clothes. Apply sparingly to exposed skin. Do not spray directly to the face; spray the repellent onto hands and then apply to face. Avoid sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth and nasal membranes. Be sure to wash treated skin after
