Horsemen’s allegations ‘misleading’: BlankBy Jennifer LangGreat Canadian Gaming Corporation says

allegations that it’s evicting race horses from barns at Fraser Downs Racetrack are mis-leading and misinforming the public.

Vice president Howard Blank says horse-men and Great Canadian agreed on a set number of stable stalls that would be required over the summer break.

“We laid out a program at their approval of 200 spaces,” Blank said, responding to an April

22 Reporter story (“Fresh calls to save racing”) involving a recent informational protest held outside the racetrack and casino.

“Th ey’re publicly stating they’re being thrown out onto the streets,” he said.

On the contrary, Blank said company rep-resentatives met with the horsemen weeks ago and asked what they needed for barn space, he said. “Th ey told us 165, 175, and we gave them 200 stalls.”

Th e 2011 winter/spring harness racing

season wrapped up April 15.“Th is was a non-issue,” Blank

said. “We have never not worked with them.”

Closing some barns and consoli-dating the horses will enable Fraser Downs to clean the barns, perform maintenance, and prepare them for the new season.

“It’s not just saving money. It’s a management decision for what

they feel is best for the property,”Blank said.

Fraser Downs is the only race-course in North America that al-lows horses to remain on-site in theoff -season.

“All the other racetracks clear thehorses out,” including Great Canadi-an’s Hastings Racecourse, he said.

RED BARN BLOWOUT It’s nearly the end of the line for Clover-

dale’s Red Barn Antiques.Th e landmark store – once Canada’s larg-

est antique store – is closing the doors aft er 42 years in operation.

Th e closing out sale that’s being going on for the past two years kicked up a notch ear-lier this spring when owner Leigh Carnegie announced the buildings had fi nally sold.

But this weekend truly marks the begin-ning of the end: a massive, four-day inven-tory blow-out sale that ends Sunday, May 1. Prices are being slashed up to 50 per cent and more on memorabilia, antiques, future and aboriginal art. Everything must go – even display cases.

Famed for its paint job, maze-like show-rooms, and unmatched collection of memo-rabilia, from soda fountains to old-fashioned gas pumps and Chinatown phone booths – was a favourite source of props for movie

crews fi lming and discerning collectors from across North America.

Th e wood saloon bars have already gone, as has the replica Piper plane. But there are still plenty of deals and one-of-a-kind items and memorabilia to be found, including coin-operated store amusement rides.

“Th ere are still thousands of small items like glass, china, silverware and porcelain,” says Carnegie, who’s retiring from the family-run business originally started by his parents, who moved their busi-ness to Cloverdale 38 years ago from North Van.

“Th ere’s some really good buys,” he said, adding it hurts to see it all go. But the store and its contents must be empty by mid-May to make way for the new owners, who plan to open a furniture store. Blowout sale hours are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. April 28-May 1.

QUITE A RECORDOrganizers say a record-breaking 150,000

people took to the streets of Surrey on Sat-urday for the annual Vaisakhi parade andcelebration.

Vaisakhi is a month-long spring celebra-tion of the harvest. Th e parade celebrates the

Khalsa, established in 1699 tofi ght discrimination, promoteequality and uphold truth.

Th e parade began and endedat Gurdwara Sahib DasmeshDarbar on 85 Avenue near 128 Street, winding its way around

the neighbourhood. Streets in the area wereclosed most of the day on April 23.

Community groups, businesses and indi-viduals handed out free food and drinks toattendees throughout the day. Carnival ridesand evening fi reworks capped off the week-end celebration.

Th e parade is the largest outside India.

Surrey RCMP marks 60 years SundayBy Jennifer LangCloverdale plays host

to a special ceremony Sunday aft ernoon com-memorating the 60th anniversary of the RCMP taking over po-licing duties in the City of Surrey.

Th e ceremony starts at 2 p.m. May 1 at Sur-rey Museum Plaza at 17710 56A Ave., and will last about an hour. Th e public is encour-aged to attend. Th ere sill be a marching parade by RCMP members in dress ceremonial uni-form (red serge).

Mayor Dianne Watts will perform an inspec-tion of the troops. Oth-er dignitaries have been invited as well, includ-ing Peter German, the RCMP’s Deputy Com-missioner for Western Canada.

Other participants include the 15th Field Regiment, Royal Ca-nadian Artillery Band from Vancouver.

It’s a celebration, but it’s also a sombre oc-casion, honouring the legacy of the hundreds of members who have served Surrey over the years, including the four who have been killed in the line of duty, and to

recognize the success-ful partnership between the RCMP and the city of Surrey.

“Th ere will be a sig-nifi cant number of members at the parade,” says Staff Sergeant Ma-jor Dave Woods.

It’s hoped some of those original members will be on hand for in-spection says Woods, the former District Commander for the Cloverdale/Port Kells District offi ce, one of fi ve district offi ces es-tablished in 1998 to provide the Surrey RCMP with a commu-nity presence.

Woods says the pa-rade will require clos-ing down Highway 10 in front of the museum for a very short time only.

Th e RCMP’s involve-ment in law enforce-ment in Surrey spans 80 years and has come a long way since 1920, when the RCMP sta-tioned a single Mountie here to patrol the U.S. Canada border.

Th e history of polic-ing in Surrey actually starts well before that. Th e city incorporated in 1879, but didn’t es-tablish its own police

force until 1887.By the mid-1940s,

Surrey city council was worrying about ad-dressing rising costs of maintaining its own police force in the growing Fraser Valley community.

In 1950, Surrey citi-zens voted in favour of contracting policing to the RCMP. At 12:01 a.m. May 1, 1951 the RCMP took over mu-nicipal policing in Sur-rey, stationed right here in Cloverdale.

Eighteen members were posted to the Sur-rey RCMP’s original

Cloverdale detachment, which was located in-side what was then the Surrey City Hall build-ing, now home to the Surrey Archives.

As the city grew, so did the Surrey detach-ment, which has moved four times, fi rst in 1952, to a former laundromat a the southwest corner of 177B Street and 60

Avenue. In 1963, the detach-

ment moved into the annex of the former City Hall, next to the original 1912 City Hall building, now home to the Surrey Archives.

Less than a decade later, in 1971, the de-tachment operated out of trailers while the old annex was demolished

to make way for a new, larger RCMP detach-ment where the Surrey Cenotaph is located to-day.

In 1991, the Surrey RCMP’s current detach-ment opened at 14355 57 Avenue, its current home.

Th e fi rst community policing offi ce in Surrey opened in 1991, at 5732 176A Street in Clover-dale.

Today, the Surrey RCMP is the largest RCMP detachment in Canada, with 651 mem-bers and a support staff of 238 municipal em-ployees.

Look for a commem-orative Surrey RCMP’s anniversary display as part of the upcoming Cloverdale Rodeo.

It will be on display at the new Cloverdale Recreation Centre dur-

ing the rodeo and coun-try fair.

Th ere will be lots tosee, including police ve-hicles, ATVs, and thearmoured personnelvehicle – if operationalrequirements permit.

Barns to be lockedto former Surrey mayor Doug McCal-lum, CEO of Harness Racing B.C., the association that represents standard-bred owners, trainers and drivers.

McCallum said his board unani-mously rejected Fraser Downs’ at-tempt to close any of the barns, but company offi cials said they intended to go ahead despite objections.

“Th ey’re evicting horses out of four of the six barns, basically to save mon-ey,” McCallum said. “We’re saying we don’t accept that and our board won’t

agree to it, and that’s where it’s at.”McCallum said the barns soon will

be locked shut, re-opening July 15.“Th is doesn’t make any sense,” he

said. “People have stalls for many years.

Now they’re being forced to upheave and take all their stuff , harnesses, tack, and move it to another barn.”

As of Tuesday, McCallum said it ap-peared more than the 200 stall alloca-tions would be needed.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen with the extra horses.”

Do casino owners know some-thing everyone else is missing?

Is there a limitless source of gamblers in the Lower Mainland? Are destination gaming sites in Coquitlam, Richmond, New Westminster and Burnaby fi lled to bursting with poker, black jack and slot machine players?

Th at would be the conclu-sion drawn from comments by BC Lottery Corp. CEO Michael Graydon, who said in February a rejection of the proposal for a mega casino next to BC Place Stadium in Vancouver would “certainly” prompt a look at sites in other Metro Vancouver cities, potentially as far as Abbotsford.

Vancouver’s spurning of a 1,500-slot machine destination casino downtown could mean jilted operators looking else-where for a site.

Port Moody has already said no, Surrey is interested in a des-tination casino with a hotel and a theatre, and North Vancouver is apparently under-served and could use some slots and gaming tables.

It appears gambling is on par

with other community services, such as libraries and swimming pools: Everyone needs to have one to get a piece of the lucrative business.

But before the Lower Mainland becomes Las Vegas North, the question has to be asked: Are there enough gamblers to go around? While it’s true gambling

has the potential of increasing tourism, the Lower Mainland is never going to have the same ca-

chet as other famous international desti-nations.

Th is means any new gambling op-portunities will have to siphon business away from those that

are currently in operation. In Coquitlam, the Boulevard

Casino apparently does a briskbusiness with its 1,000 slot ma-chines and gaming tables. It hasalso diversifi ed by renting outspace in its theatre and hostinglive shows.

But if the gambling industryinsists on establishing a casinoin every village and town, busi-ness will surely dwindle in com-munities that were early entriesin the game.

While it’s probably self-servingto whine that extended gamblingwith reduce profi ts locally, andthereby revenue to host cities,the larger issue is this: Do LowerMainland mayors see themselvesas handmaidens of the gamblingindustry? BCLC estimates that$300 million more could be spenton gambling if there were morecasinos or community gamingcentres.

Really? Should would-be gam-blers spend that money on gam-ing or would they be better touse it to pay for the rising costof groceries, gas, electricity andhousing?

Just asking.– Black Press

cate that there has been a collapse in positive cash fl ow for small-business owners and various front-line workers in the health and care-giver community.

Th is ‘liquidity’ problem can be solved by the adoption of a fl at tax on income with a tax free al-lowance for the fi rst $30,000. I would also eliminate GST/HST and if elected, push for B.C. to fold the sales tax into the price of goods and services for the PST as in Tasmania and Washington State.

Cloverdale used to have a vibrant antiques and ephem-era community and seems to have lost a lot of character and energy; as a director of the White Rock Farmers Market, former actor in the community theater (murderer and murderee) and a founder and owner of small busi-nesses that grew, I know ways of bringing some of that energy back.

hearing is about jobs and the economy. While things are cer-tainly improving, too many peo-ple are still looking for work.

People are generally pleased with the way we have handled the economic downturn, with our emphasis on infrastructure projects – which brought over $100 million in funding to our community – and in keeping tax-es low. Th e average family is sav-ing $3,000 annually thanks to our Conservative tax reductions.

Our plan to lower taxes further for families, including allowing for income splitting, is popular as approximately 15,000 families in our community will save an average of $1,300 each. I have personally championed this tax cut in parliament, and people can learn more at www.FamilyIn-comeSplitting.com.

Voters are also concerned about crime. Whether it’s auto

theft , grow ops or gang shoot-ings, much more needs to be done to toughen sentences and keep criminals locked up.

What is your proudest accom-plishment in Cloverdale as incum-bent MP for the riding?

I’m particularly proud of the tens of millions in federal fund-

ing I’ve been able to de-liver for Clo-verdale. Th is funding has benefi ted the C l ove rd a l e Rodeo, the C l ove rd a l e Arena and Curling Rink, the Heritage Square Ceno-

taph, Greenaway Park, upgraded Highway 10, twinned Highway 15, and built beautiful new bicy-cle paths throughout Surrey.

Population growth, especially here, requires improved infra-structure, expanded services, and intergovernmental co-operation in planning, execution and eff ec-tive representation in Ottawa.

Economic change requires willingness to adapt rather than more of the corporate tax cuts and market-place deregulation responsible for the recession. Pre-ferring corporate tax cuts for big business that does not invest in Canada to sustainable health care

does not pro-vide eff ective treatment for autism, serve an aging populat ion, or build for the future. It shift s the tax burden from big business to everyday t a x p a y e r s .

Ideological deregulation does not secure the fi nancial sector, much less protect the environment.

Eff ective representation re-quires a real Member of Parlia-ment willing to stand up for Can-ada and the community, not just a party man, to be meaningful in our lives.

What do you think is the top is-sue facing Cloverdale?

Families in Cloverdale work hard, are involved in the commu-nity and contribute to the local economy. More than ever, these families fi nd it increasingly diffi -cult to make ends meet. Families need help today, not in the distant future. Surveys consistently show that many two-income families would choose to have one parent stay at home, if they could aff ord it. Naturally, parents desire to do

what parents ought to do – raise their own chil-dren! Other parties say that families are the build-ing block of society, but CHP Canada has a better

solution for families – right now! If elected, I will advocate for my party’s Family Care Allowance which will provide $1,000 per month for families in which one parent chooses to stay home to care for their children, disabled family member or aging parent. Visit me at iLikeMike.ca for more info.

the top issue facing Clo-verdale?

Families in Cloverdale, like families across the country, are faced with a clear choice in this elec-tion. A choice between investments in children, university education, secure retirement, and health care, or invest-ments in jails, jets, and corporate tax cuts. Middle class families in Cloverdale are facing the challenges of making a living, paying for child

care, sending their children to post secondary education, saving for retirement, and some are caring for sick family members in their homes. Th e Liberal Family pack

will provide investments in early childhood education and aff ordable childcare spaces, and our Learning Passport will provide up to $6,000 over four years for students in post sec-ondary education. We will make improvements to the CPP and create a voluntary savings plan for those who want secure savings for retirement. We will also

provide assistance to those who are caring for their sick or infi rm loved ones in the home.

Of course, only a very small portion of Clover-dale falls within my riding,

What do you think is the top is-sue facing Clover-dale?

Surrey is one of the best places in the world to live and Cloverdale has a very unique role.

Cloverdale is seen as a distinct entity, yet has a sym-biotic relationship with its neighbouring communities.

While some parts of southern Cloverdale have plateaued, so-to-speak, oth-ers like Clayton Heights are exploding in population, and

therefore in eco-nomic relevance. While a libertarian’s issues are rarely unique to any spe-cifi c interest group, one issue that may stand out is trans-

portation and infra-structure.

I believe there isa need to return all the taxes collected from gasoline anddiesel – around 40cents per litre – tothe provincial and municipal levels. Cloverdale’s success is dependent on ac-

cess and currently there isroom for improvement. Ifelected I would cut the fed-eral government’s involve-ment because transit andinfrastructure is a regionalchallenge, so adding anotherlayer of bureaucracy hindersCloverdale’s – and all of Sur-rey’s – chances for successfuleconomic growth.

Balancing ActThe snow and ice of winter have left roads in bad shape, repeated freezing and thawing of moisture seeps through road surfaces and causes potholes. The impact of potholes on tires increases dramatically with speed and can cause hidden, internal damage that could lead to tire failure weeks, or even months, later. It is best to avoid potholes entirely, but if that's not possible, don't brake during potholes impact. Apply brakes before hitting a pothole and release them just prior to impact. Braking during the impact sets up the tire and wheel assembly for a "solid hit' against the edge of the hole. If you hit a severe pothole, have us check your vehicle's alignment and tire balance.

meirion “Botanic Garden” pot-tery in My Kitchen Window, a Fort Langley kitchen accessories shop, make me smile?

In 1970s Britain the bold herb-al and garden fl oral motif designs were trendy departures from tra-ditional tableware by celebrated designer Susan Williams-Ellis.

It was, however, the memory of Portmeirion, a somewhat out-rageous village in North Wales designed by her architect and environmentalist father, Sir Ber-tram Clough Williams-Ellis, that promoted my aff ectionate grin.

You love it, or hate it, but you

don’t forget it.Until a visit last

year, I’d forgotten that Portmeirion was not just pot-tery, but also a quirky village.

Perched on a cliff over the stun-ning River Dw-yryd estuary in Snowdonia, North Wales, the village is a staggering archi-tectural confection of clusters of pastel peach, Mediterranean blue, creamy ochre, and white stucco towers and villas frosted

with Romeo and Julietbalconies surroundedby fountains, grot-toes, and lush gardens.Th e entire collection– interspersed withoccasional graniteMichelangelo – stylerelatives – clings to apicturesque hillside. If a White Rabbit hadrushed by muttering,“I’m late, I’m late”, or a

Representatives from the Sur-rey Urban Mission, Cystic Fibrosis Canada and the Autism Society of B.C. shared their insights with stu-dents at Clayton Heights Second-ary last week.

Reality Week is an annual aware-ness campaign organized by the members of Project Equal, a club at Clayton Heights Secondary.

Diff erent presenters and activi-ties and movies are organized for each day during Reality Week, held April 18 to 21 this year.

Day one focused on Autism Awareness. Presenter Anne Mil-lard of the Autism Society of B.C. spoke with classes. Later, students watched Temple Grandin, one of three fi lms shown in the school’s theatre during Reality Week.

Day two featured Jonquil Hail-gate of Surrey Urban Mission. Ja-net Edmison from Cystic Fibrosis Canada spoke on day three.

Th e club planned awareness ac-tivities such as word search puz-zles, pamphlets and posters for those students and teachers who were unable to attend presenta-tions or watch the fi lms, which also included Th e Soloist and 65_Red Roses.

But the club’s quest for awareness hasn’t ended there. Th is Th ursday the club is helping to organize the 36-hour famine. Clayton Heights students who are taking part are collecting $75-pledges and fasting from 8 a.m. April 28 to 8 a.m. April 30.

Proceeds will be allocated to a

clean water project in Sierra Leone, the Autism Society of B.C., BC Children’s Hospital, and Japanese earthquake relief eff orts.

Th e purpose of the 36-hour fam-ine is to raise awareness about hun-ger around the world.

Community sponsors include Cobs Bread, Starbucks, Tim Hor-

tons, PriceSmart Foods, Phar-masave, and WW Johnson Meat Co.

Th e famine committee thanks the Project Equal Club, teacher supervisors, pledge donors, and Project Equal Club teacher spon-sor Sarah Daintrey.

Reality, hunger on the agenda

CONTRIBUTED PHOTOProject Equal is a club at Clayton Heights Secondary School. The club organized Reality Week at the school.

It’s been a busy year for Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary’s Green Team.

Earlier this month, the team took its conservation message to nearby Don Christian Elementary, holding an assembly encouraging students to take action on climate change.

On April 20, the Green Team held a Green Picnic spon-sored by Surrey Parks in Greenaway Park, the popular park next to the high school.

Th e team collects garbage at the park every week, and ear-lier in the school year planted spring bulbs which are now in

bloom. Classes from Don Christian Elementary were invited to the park to learn about green initiatives. Small children and families were also invited.

Th e team has been working hard to increase the environ-mental responsibility of the whole school and community, Grade 9 student Puneet Sidhu and friends write. Th e team made videos and power presentations shown to students and school staff , educating everyone on conservation and the en-vironment. Th e team also ran a school gallery competition and organized Green Week awareness activities, along with

competing in the High School Climate Challenge, involvingas many students as possible.

“Our main focus has been to educate our school and com-munity on the issues of climate change,” Sidhu said.

School activities included a poster competition, a tap waterpledge where students and staff alike promise to switch to re-usable water containers, a vow of silence and an awakethon.Activities have raised $1,500 for the Me to We project. Studentshave also planted more than 100 trees in the community.

seemed perfectly fi tting. Get the idea?

Below the village, at the edge of the estuary, a casually elegant res-taurant and hotel take full advantage of an out-standing water view.

Th e rather 1920s aura and style apparently ap-pealed to visitors such as Gregory Peck, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Mc-Cartney, Frank Lloyd Wright, and others.

Originally, the main hotel building and re-lated cottages named “White Horses”, “Mer-maid” and “Th e Saluta-tion”, were part of “Aber Iâ” (Welsh for Ice Estu-ary), a private estate de-signed in the 1850s. A foundry and boatyard fl ourished in the area until late in the 18th century.

For me, it brought back memories of my passion for Patrick Mc-Goohan, star of Th e Prisoner.

Th e TV series featured British former secret agent McGoohan held prisoner in a mysterious seaside village. His cap-tors spent from 1967 to 1969 determined to fi nd

out why he abruptly resigned from his job without explanation.

Had I known he was lurking in Portmeirion, I’d have hightailed it out of London post haste to give the poor man a hand. Sir Clough, how-ever, had only agreed to allow the use of the location on condition that it remained a se-cret to protect the area’s fragile ecology (and presumably hoards of swooning females).

Apart from the in-evitable hotel gift shop, a Portmeirion pottery shop stocks well-priced seconds near the walled village entrance.

Located near Pen-rhyndeudraeth, the village is 3.2 km south east of Porthmadog, and (1.6 km from the railway station at Minf-fordd.

What exactly is a Root Canal?

*may be additional charges if specifi c x-rays or diagnostic models are requested.

Ask the Dentist!

By Dr. Andrew Willoughby, DMD

Last week I saw an emergency patient in severe pain – she wanted to have her aching tooth removed. When I explained we could easily save the tooth by performing a root canal treatment, she immediately resisted because she did not understand what a root canal was. Like other patients, she had misinforma-tion and apprehension about endodontic therapy (root canals) so I would like to address the most frequently asked questions and concerns.

Endodontic care (root canal therapy) is necessary when nerve tissue in the tooth becomes irreversibly damaged due to decay, trauma or tooth fracture often causing extreme pain. The bacteria which cause de-cay will continue to spread and eventually the nerve will die and the acute pain will subside, but don’t be fooled - the bacteria will continue to grow and multiply and this can even lead to a abscessed tooth. If you need root canal therapy, sooner is defi nitely better! Only after damaged nerve tissue has been removed and replaced with fi lling will you be able to save your tooth and chew normally again.Fillings and crowns are dental restorations used to replace damaged tooth enamel by protecting and strengthening it. When decay is more severe, has spread deep into the softer dentine layer towards the tooth nerve or a pre-existing fi lling has created frac-tures in the surrounding tooth, endodontic treatment is often required to restore the tooth to normal healthy function.What is a root canal?A root canal is the space inside a tooth. It is a tunnel or canal, running from the tooth’s visible crown area through to the root, which is anchored in the jawbone. The root canal is not empty space. It contains tooth pulp consisting of the nerve, connective tissue and blood vessels that nourish it. When you get a toothache, it is because decay and infection have entered the canal and are affecting the nerve. Eventually the nerve will die if no treatment is done, and the toothache will dis-appear but the bacteria continue to spread, infecting gums, jawbone and possibly entering the bloodstream

to carry the infection elsewhere. Is a root canal always done when you have a crown?No. Many times a crown is enough to preserve and protect the damaged tooth. The Dentist would remove all decay and debris from the enamel and dentin lay-ers and place a crown, giving the tooth an entire new chewing surface. Only when decay has penetrated through all layers to the root canal and has infected tooth pulp does endodontic therapy become neces-sary.Decay and infection created by the spreading bacteria must be cleaned out. In the absence of living tooth pulp, a medicated cement and plastic material called gutta percha is used to fi ll the empty sterile root canal. Once the tooth settles down, a resin post, new composite build up material and ceramic crown can be bonded to the tooth replacing the missing structure.Is a root canal as painful as they say it is?No, certainly not. This is an old cliché from the days of our grandparents’ dentistry experiences. Modern dentistry has advanced far beyond that using sophisti-cated equipment, lasers, painless injection techniques, computers, more refi ned dental products and proce-dures. Most modern dentistry is virtually pain-free and is quicker and easier to perform.How long will a root canal last?It will last as long as your tooth lasts – indefi nitely if you give it good dental hygiene. Is there downtime after a root canal?No. You may resume your daily activities directly after your procedure. Local anesthetic will wear off gradu-ally and commonly occurring tenderness or bruising is routinely controlled with a combination of anti-infl am-matories and painkillers. Post-op tenderness typically resolves in as little as 7-10 days. Our offi ce would be delighted to show you the tech-nology that deals with your dental concerns and de-termine if we may help manage a stubborn, sensitive or painful tooth.

IMPROVE THE WELL-BEING THAT FLOWS INTO YOUR LIFE BY MAKING IT YOUR DAILY FOCUS. THINK HEALTHY THOUGHTS!

Over the years we have seen fi tness centres go through many changes.

The fi tness movement has gone from simple strength training with weights to the addition of aerobic classes. Then, in addition to plain old bikes came great cardio pieces like programmable bikes, treadmills, row-ers, eliptical trainers and much more.

People thought all the machines would revolutionize the fi tness industry and in some cases it did. On the other hand, it also made people some-what lazy. A lot of people don’t do the good old basic

movements that work well because it is easier to sit, stand or lie down on a machine and push or pull.

Fitness clubs are bigger and better-equipped than they’ve ever been, but people probably receive the least amount of help ever. I personally think this is wrong. The

common work ethic seen in most gyms is not what it used to be and probably never will be again. To get great results you need to put in effort wisely not just time. After months of frustration some people are forced to acquire a personal trainer for extra help or they quit.

After watching all these changes we decided to put together a class that would involve “ good old hard work “. We call this class GUTS. Each class is a com-plete body workout and is a combination of cardio, core and resistance. Each class changes from day to day to incorporate every little muscle we can fi nd on your body!

Our classes are not your ordinary circuit. The exer-

cises we choose make you think, try hard, dig deep and at the same time have fun as we push you past what you thought you were capable of doing. You may not like us at the time but as your body starts to change you will learn what this new experi-ence has taught you.

Since the late ‘90s doctors started to realize the importance of working at a higher heart rate and the addition of resistance work to help things like lower-ing blood pressure, helping control anxiety, fi ghting depression as well as helping to control diabetes to name a few health benefi ts. It was and still is a per-fect medicine to not only control but to help maintain and improve our quality of life as we age. It is never too late to start.

Here at GUTS we have been involved with the fi t-ness industry in some way for over 30 years. What we feel makes us different is the component of nutri-tion and eating plans that we stress to our clients. If you are working hard and not seeing results, work-ing even harder is not the answer. People will generally consider poor results as over training instead of under eating. We take pride in the combina-tion of exercise and

food planning that we give to our customers. We get results … actually you get the results, we point you in the right direction!

Our group classes are more like personal training; they are not so large that we can’t offer individual attention to everyone. We keep the pressure on you when needed and the group environment generally adds to the experience of getting more out of your-self.

Here are just a couple of our successful partici-pants: Amy Lynn Faure lost 60 pounds over the last year and Aimee Burt lost 80 pounds. Results were slow and steady, but now they are fi t, strong and eat-ing well.

What kind of goals do you have? Are you hitting them? If you need any help on attaining your new fi tness goal please call or e-mail us for an appoint-ment.
