Holt; and two invented byMarsh from composite characters: Holt foreman Harold Hookerand camp cook Henry Hauser.A number of important events occurring during the up and downsof the logging industry from 1892-96 are recreated through thereading of fictitious but historically accurate letters written by themen to their wives. Marsh plays Lucy Holt, Cindy Jonet portraysHannah Hauser, and Beth Hartman appears as Henrietta Hooker.Dorsey and Betty Holt contacted Marsh last spring to r equest thatshe arrange a special presentation ofLove Letters from the Log-ging Campon July 16 t o celebrate their birthdays. Forty peopleattended, included five generations of descendants of W.A. andLucy Holt, as well as unexpected guests Marshs brother JohnBrantmeier and his wife Linda who brought along their cousinsSam and Kate Alexander, visiting from Germany.

Showsponsor, the Holt & Balcom Logging Camp Museum in Lake-wood, reports that capacity crowds gave performers a standingovation after enjoying first-rate entertainment at The Homestead-ers Fraulein. Written and directed by Kathleen Marie Marsh, theshow was excellently narrated by Marcia Wahoske, great-granddaughter of W.A. and Lucy Holt who traveled from Balti-more to do the show.

Did you ever wonder how those ATV/UTV and snowmobile trails appear each year just in time for riding fun? Clubvolunteers spend countless hours working with landowners, putting up signs, brushing trails and getting groomingequipment ready. Trails are maintained by clubs across Wisconsin with partial funding provided by the registration feespaid each year for snowmobiles, ATVs and UTVs. Clubs supplement this funding with local fundraisers to meet thetotal cost of keeping the trails in the great condition riders expect.

All clubs are volunteer groups and are always looking for new members.You may ask why you should join a club. First off it is a lot of fun inter-acting with others who share your passion for motorized recreation. You

also get to join your voice with the club and state organizations who workhard to keep trails open as anti -motorized groups push to achieve theirgoals. Representing the snowmobile sport here in Wisconsin is the Asso-ciation of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs (AWSC) and on the ATV/UTVside there is the Wisconsin ATV/UTV Association (WATVA). Bothwork with clubs and members to convince our legislators at the local,state and national levels that snowmobilers and ATV/UTV owners haveor should have equal rights under the law and that our recreational en-

deavors are compatible with other users.

Prospective club members often ask how involved they have to be if they join. The easy answer is as involved as youwant to be. Some club members may brush trails, run grooming equipment, help with fundraisers or hold leadershippositions. Others just want to be social members who participate in the fun activities. Clubs fully recognize that folkslead busy lives and cant always be as active as they would want. As mentioned above just the sheer numbers of thoseinvolved in club activities is important to our legislators. There is a bit of the old squeaky wheel get the grease sayingthat applies here.

The Oconto County Snowmobile Alliance consists of 9 clubs including the Oconto Falls Snow Jokers, Bagley &Brazeau Joyriders of Klondike, Chase Sno-Chasers, Gillett Sno & ATV Riders, Lena Snow Drifters, Chute Pond Snow-

mobile Club, Paul Bunyan Rider s of Lakewood and Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Clu b of Townsend. The Iron Snow-shoe Snowmobile Club of Marinette County also belongs to the Alliance as they have trail s coming into the eastern sideof Oconto County. These clubs spend nearly 10,000 volunteer hours each year preparing, brushing and grooming the475 miles of trail in the county.

ATV/UTV Clubs in Oconto County include the Dusty Trails ATV Club in Mountain, Hidden Bear Trail ATV Club inthe Lakewood/Riverview/Doty area, Crooked Trail Riders ATV Club in Crooked Lake and the Oconto Area ATV Clubin Oconto. Red Arrow in Townsend and Gillett Snow & ATV riders in Gillett are year round clubs that have memberswho either snowmobile or ATV/UTV and some who enjoy both. These clubs are responsible for about 450 miles ofinterconnected summer trails and routes. Overall coordination of the county wide trail systems is the r esponsibility ofthe Oconto County Parks and Recreation Department.

Both Snowmobile and ATV/UTV trail systems connect to adjoining counties including Marinette, Forest, Langlade andFlorence and there is direct access to Michigan trails via the Nicolet State Recreational Trail.

More information about obtaining Trail Maps, the individual clubs and links to their websites can be found atwww.ocontocounty.org.Again, we encourage you to join a club and get involved. We are only a round trip tank ofgas away from Green Bay and the Fox Valley and less than three hours from the Milwaukee area making OcontoCounty an ideal up-north riding destination. Even if you dont ri de a sled, ATV or UTV but own a business or justwant to get involved we welcome your assistance. Check the website just above for the club nearest you and volunteerto join or helpeither financially or with your time.

Thanks for your support and see you on the tr ail!


A Word or Two From Dr. Adam

Nutrition Advice for a Healthy New You

What Can You Do?

Lifestyle Changes

Exercise at least 20 to 30 minutes three or four days a week.

Eat out more sparingly. Food preparation methods in rest aurants often involve high amounts-a

the wrong types-of fat and sugar.

Brown-bag your lunch to control your fat and sugar content while adding nutritious fruits, veg

bles, and grains.

Limit your intake of alcohol and quit smoking. Drinking alcohol excessively and/or smoking hind

your body's ability to absorb nutrients from your food.

Dietary Changes

Eat more raw foods. Cooking and canning destroys much of the nutrition in foods. With the ex

tion of canned tomatoes, which can help prevent prostate cancer,1 fresh or frozen fruits and vegeta

always have more natural vitamins and minerals.

Select organically grown foods when possible, be-

cause they have lower amounts of toxic elements, such

as pesticides and heavy metals.

Consume 25 to 30 grams of fiber a da y. Whole-

grain breads and cereals, beans, nuts, and some fruits

and vegetables are good sources of fiber. High -fiber

diets can help prevent digestive disorders, heart dis-

ease, and colon cancer.

Drink eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of water a day.

Coffee, tea, soft drinks, and alcohol are dehydrators.

Don't substitute them for water.
