Looking for something special to do with the kids or grandkids over the Fourth of July weekend? Why not bring them out
to the Holt & Balcom Logging Camp Museum Family Field Day on July 7th? The
Museum will be open for tours starting at 10 a.m. and the field activities begin at
11:00 a.m.

This first ever family-friendly activity offers a unique opportunity for youngsters
to learn some essential lumberjacking skills. Staff will be on hand to help kids
entering fourth grade and up learn to stamp a log, use a crosscut saw, and position
and move heavy timber using cant hooks and log carriers. All participants will
receive free souvenirs provided by the Forest Service.

Holt & Balcom is located off Highway F in Lakewood. Take Highway 32 to

County Trunk F; go east 1.5 miles. Turn right into the McCauslin Golf Course
and follow the signs. Park in the golf course parking lot. The Museum is directly
behind the Clubhouse. A $5.00 per person donation is requested for these special
events.

Last Wednesday the DNR held their open house in Antigo regarding the all season recreational bridge across the Wolf River at Lang-
lade. We counted 60-70 folks total who attended the event. Frankly we were a bit disappointed in the turnout but it was a weeknight
and quite a drive for everyone in our county. FYI the presentation was very balanced and I would say even a bit favorable for getting
the bridge built. A photo of a similar bridge project and a Q&A are attached to give you more information about the project.

Survey is very very important to getting this bridge built

A HUGE part of the decision will be based on the answers to the online Survey Monkey hosted by the DNR. If you already did the
survey a big THANK YOU!!! If not we are asking that you do so right away! Also please forward to anyone on you mailing list that
may have an interest in this topic. The Survey direct link is https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/QKMY36Q The survey must be
done before July 10th! With the 4th of July Holiday coming up please do this in the next day or two Please.

At the meeting everyone kept talking about the “ATV Bridge”. Fact is this bridge is also for snowmobile and silent sports use. If
you have ever ridden to Langlade County via the Hwy 64 Bridge you know it is a little scary to say the least. (See Hwy 64 bridge
photo attached) This project would take snowmobiles across the river safely. In your comments please talk about snowmobiling and
the safety factor involved in getting the bridge built. Also please consider talking about how important it is to link motorized summer
recreation between Langlade and Oconto Counties. A recent club Facebook page post about the project got over 32,000 views and
400 shares.

If you don’t want to do the survey on line you can use the link below to print out a hard copy of the survey but mail it in right
away

https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/lands/PropertyPlanning/Northwoods/documents/Upper_Wolf_River/Documents/HardcopyInputFormUpper
WolfRiverAmendment.pdf

We need every business and motorized recreational rider in Oconto County to help us win this 6 year struggle to finally have a way
to cross the Wolf River safely. Do the survey now while it is fresh on your mind.

Plans are being finalized for the 64th Annual Mardi Gras in Lakewood to be held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, July
13, 14, & 15, 2018. The event is a long-time mainstay of Northwoods celebrations and, as like last year, some changes
and additions are being made to keep the event fresh and relevant.

Some of the activities of past Mardi Gras celebrations will re-

main, including the Spectrum Carnival rides on the midway,
the softball tournament to be held on Saturday and Sunday, the
noon parade through downtown Lakewood on Sunday, a wide
variety of foods and favorite beverages offered, and music eve-
ry evening.

Some activities that were added last year will return. There
will again be a Human Foosball Tournament on Friday, with a
tentative starting time of 4:00 p.m. Those games will be fol-
lowed by musical entertainment from A-Town Unplugged at
7:00 p.m. The Museum For A Weekend will again be held in
the new Community
Building. Featuring
many historical dis-
plays and memorabil-
ia, the exhibits will be open for FREE public viewing from 11:00 a.m. until 6:00
p.m. on Saturday, and from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on Sunday. The large
displays honoring area military veterans will again be included with the Muse-
um For A Weekend presentations. The Trout Pond for the little kids will again
be provided on Saturday afternoon. The Pig Roast that was added last year will
also return on Saturday afternoon, with a promise that much more pork will be
available than last year, when the roast pork sold out quickly. The musical en-
tertainment for Saturday night will be Cranken Yankees at 7:00 p.m., and DJ
Greg Tallier will start at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.

Among the additions for this year will be a Fun Scramble Pickleball Tourna-
ment, starting at 9:00 a.m. Saturday morning; and Corn Hole Tournament tenta-
tively being scheduled for Saturday. A meat raffle will also be offered on Sun-
day afternoon. An additional food booth will operate this year and offerings will
include the regular burgers, hot dogs, brats, etc., plus corn on the cob, pizza, and
ice cream.

The highlight of Sunday's activities is always the parade, which will start at 12:00 Noon sharp. There is no cost to enter
the parade and entries are asked to line up near the Lakewood Cemetery on Sunday morning. Every local business,
youth group, lake association, organization, and other interested individuals and groups are encouraged to put an entry
into the parade. Prizes will be awarded for the best parade entries.

The Lakewood Area Chamber of Commerce and the Mardi Gras Organizing Group are making a great effort to offer
something for everyone and make the weekend the premium weekend of the summer. Mark your calendars and we hope
to see you there. Have a great summer.

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam
Preventing Travel Aches and Strains
Traveling can be rough on the body. Whether you are traveling
alone, on business or on your way to a sunny resort with your
family, long hours in a car or on an airplane can leave you
stressed, tired, stiff and sore.
Warm Up, Cool Down
Treat travel like an athletic event. Warm up before settling into a
car or plane, and cool down once you reach your destination.
Take a brisk walk to stretch your hamstring and calf muscles.
In an Airplane
Stand up straight and feel the normal “S” curve of your
spine. Then use rolled-up pillows or blankets to main-
tain that curve when you sit in your seat. Tuck a pillow
behind your back and just above the beltline and lay
another pillow across the gap between your neck and
the headrest. If the seat is hollowed from wear, use fold-
ed blankets to raise your buttocks a little.
Check all bags heavier than 5 to 10 percent of your body
weight. Overhead lifting of any significant amount of
weight should be avoided to reduce the risk of pain in
the lower back or neck. While lifting your bags, stand
right in front of the overhead compartment so the spine
is not rotated. Do not lift your bags over your head or
turn or twist your head and neck in the process.
When stowing belongings under the seat, do not force the
object with an awkward motion using your legs, feet or
arms. This may cause muscle strain or spasms in the

easily slide your fingers in and out of that space, you
need to re-adjust your seat.
Consider a back support. Using a support may reduce the
incidence of low-back strain and pain. The widest part
of the support should be between the bottom of your rib
cage and your waistline.
Volume 1, Issue 1
Exercise your legs while driving to reduce the risk of any
swelling, fatigue or discomfort. Open your toes as wide
as you can, and count to 10. Count to five while you
tighten your calf muscles, then your thigh muscles, then
your gluteal muscles. Roll your shoulders forward and
back, making sure to keep your hands on the steering
wheel and your eyes on the road.
To minimize arm and hand tension while driving, hold the
steering wheel at approximately 3 o’clock and 7
o’clock, periodically switching to 10 o’clock and 5
o’clock.
Do not grip the steering wheel. Instead, tighten and loosen
your grip to improve hand circulation and decrease mus-
cle fatigue in the arms, wrists and hands.
While always being careful to keep your eyes on the road,
vary your focal point while driving to reduce the risk of
eye fatigue and tension headaches.
Take rest breaks. Never underestimate the potential conse-
quences of fatigue to yourself, your passengers and oth-
er drivers.
Safe Travel for Children
Always use a car seat in a car when traveling with children
below the age of 4 and weighing less than 40 pounds.
Ask the airline for their policy on child car seat safety. Car
seats for infants and toddlers provide added resistance to
turbulent skies and are safer than the lap of a parent in the
event of an unfortunate accident.
Make sure the car seat is appropriate for the age and size of the
child. Newborn infants require a different seat than a 3-
year-old toddler.
Car seats for infants should always face the rear. In this
position, the forces and impact of a crash will be spread
more evenly along the back and shoulders, providing
more protection for the neck.
Car seats should always be placed in the back seat of the car —
ideally in the center. This is especially important in cars
equipped with air bags. If an air bag becomes deployed,
the force could seriously injure or kill a child or infant
placed in the front seat.
Make sure the car seat is properly secured to the seat of the
vehicle and is placed at a 45-degree angle to support the
head of the infant or child.
