Brown bags return

Following the success of last year's Brown Bag clinic, the
Health ministry, local pharmacists and volunteers are getting
together to stage another next week.

The clinic gives seniors an opportunity to bring in ali -
medications they are taking — both prescription and non- -
prescription — for a-no-charge, confidential consultation
with a pharmacist. . _

Tammy Toriglia explained pharmacists such as herself
would be checking to make sure individuals are not running
the risk of health problems by simultaneously taking different.
medications. Some over-the-counter medications, she ex-
plained, can interact with prescription drugs with adverse ef-

ects,

They'll also be keeping an eye out for medications. that
have been held onto for too long since these can, in some
cases have deteriorated to the point they become a health —
risk.

The clinic takes place Thursday, April 4 at the Happy Gang
Centre, 9 a.m. to 12 noon, Those wishing to attend are asked
to phone 635-7274 to make an appointment, _

Using their heads

One person's efforts to make biking safer for her children
has turned into a campaign for young riders. :

Biking helmets for children from kindergarten to Grade 7
will soon be on sale at a reduced rate, says Rose Schibli.

Her campaign began after one of her children fell off a bike
and was injured.

“The chance of head injuries really concerns me,’’ she said.
“Most bike accidents take place within five blocks of home. I
feel children need as much protection as possible.”

Letters have now gone out to schools and to parents infor-
ming them of the helmet sales.

Young riders will first be fitted to ensure the helmets they ,
order are the right size. .

The helmets are being ordered by Sundance Ski and Sport.

Teetotal TLT

New liquor licensing laws affecting community groups have
meant no more alcoholic beverages being sold during the in-
termission of Terrace Little Theatre productions.

Theatre spokesman Gordon Oates said last week the group
can't afford the fee to have people take the province’s new
“Serving It Right’ course that’s now required in order to get
a liquor licence. a,

The cost for the course is $48 and that means having a
group of people take the course or one person who would

then have to work each.time-there is.a performance, said
ates, . 7 7 re CS ce SL a ie ; ™
: . Bither way would be difficult for a group the size of Ter-
race Little Theatre and for the amount of drinks it sells during
performance intermissions, he added.
“I¢’s a question of the money we'd have to spend. I can see
it for large groups of 300 or so but when we're sclling 50 or 60
drinks, we can’t do that." he said.

Literacy meet set

With the hiring of coordinator Nat Purcell, Project
Literacy Terrace is now gearing up for full operation.

But first it needs people to volunteer as literacy tutors. An
informational meeting for anybody interested in helping out
in that way will take place Monday, April 8 at 4722 Lakelse
Ave. beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Purcell said the project hopes to hold its initial series of
tutor training sessions the following week, April 15-20,

_ Anyone wishing further information on Project Literacy
and how they can become involved should phone 638-0422.

Another plea for assistance,
For the past three weeks now a
group of concerned citizens
have been meeting in an effort
to put together this year’s Miss
Terrace Pageant.

However, because we are not
affiliated with any of the local
service clubs, we lack the money
necessary to begin the job of
organizing workshops for the
contestants and special events,
working with sponsors and
advertising,’ . oe
