LEARN ABOUT ACTIVITIES OF FAIR BOARD — John Hall, chairman of the board of directors for the Kosciusko County Fair Board, and Eldon (“Bud”) Watkins, vice president of the board, presented a program to the Wawasee Kiwanis Club, Saturday morning, on activities of the board. Hail updated the club on the history of the fair association which has between 600 and 700 members who paid a one-time fee to join. Membership is still open. Hall commented the main reason for the board’s operation is for the 4-H clubs of the county. Each year the 4-H is given SB,OOO for ribbons and judges. There are nine board members elected for a three-year term, with three members being elected each year. All board members serve without pay. The original organization was formed in 1940 and reorganized in 1960 to its present non-profit form. Hall stated some people believe “fair week” is all the board has to be concerned with, however, the operation is actually year around. Board members must be concerned with maintenance and repair and with making enough profit to continue the operation. In 1984, the board lost $5,600; in 1985, a profit of $4,200 was made; and in'l9B6 the profit was $17,000. Hall commented it appears the board will make some $9,000 in 1987. Watkins and three members of the board operate the race track as one source of revenue. Residents who live near the track have complained of the noise and an 11 p.m. curfew has been of some help. Some suggestion have been made that another location be found and in all probability the present members will look upon the suggestion if money and a location can be found. The cost for relocation is believed to be $5 to $6 million. * Shown in front are Watkins and Phil Hoover, Kiwanis president. Standing in back are Larry Martindale, Kiwanis president-elect; and Hall.

LOUISA'S LETTER p £ ■

Dear Louisa, My son is enrolled in a college not far from our home. He seems to be getting along very well with the people and studies. There is one thing that worries me some and it is this — he comes home everytime he has a chance and usually brings several friends home with him. They have a good time while here but it certainly means a lot of work for me — having all the cooking to do and beds to make. Os course I love to see him but should I tell him not to bring so many friends home with him? Mother — S.C. Answer: It is always good to know that our children love their homes and wish to come back to them. But your son should find out if it suits you to have guests before he brings them with him. Why not let him take over some of the work when he brings his friends for the weekends? There is no reason why he and his friends cannot spread up their own beds and if you have a poi'Pilgrim's Progress' Has the average family that sits down to a traditional turkey dinner made any progress since the Pilgrims sat down to their first Thanksgiving dinner? Many nutritionists would say no. Modern dangers include: • Salt • Sugar • Fat • Artificial coloring/preservatives in canned foods • Overeating Most of the dangers can be eliminated or mitigated. In addition, turkey is lower in fat than most other meat while sweet potatoes or yams are high in nutrition. As for overeating, a long walk two hours after dinner should get rid of most of the calories.
