SHAWNEE HILLS COMMUNITY CLUB
50th Anniversary
Celebration
July 27 & 28th
Well, the Shawnee Lake 50th Anniversary Celebration is nearly
upon us, and volunteers are scrambling to with all the necessary plans
and preparations. Following are some newly-developing details:
DUCK GRAB for KIDS
One important change has been made to the plans for the event
weekend. The idea of a Warrior Prince and Princess costume contest
has been cancelled, and will be replaced by a “Duck Grab” for
children. Plans are still being finalized at the time of this writing, but for
now the plans will include placing a bunch of toy ducks in the kiddie
pool area of the beach, and allowing children to grab one for a chance
to win a prize. (Just one duck per child will be allowed, so there will be
no need for a rush to battle for a certain duck. Hopefully this will help
to prevent injuries, etc.) Each duck will bear a number on the bottom,
and then the numbers will correspond to prizes which will await each
kid with a numbered duck.
Other communities have been very successful in having Duck Races, raising funds for worthwhile projects,
while having a great social day for their entire community. The SHPOA trustees hope that this year’s little “Duck
Grab” for the children may develop into a full-blown Duck Race for the community some day.
COLLECTOR CAR CRUISE-IN
Yes, we’re going to have our own cruise-in for hot rods, show cars, classics, vintage trucks, motorcycles,
and just about any kind of cool special vehicle. There will be awards and door prizes, and at least one special
vehicle will be chosen to be featured in full color in an upcoming
issue of SMOKE SIGNALS. A live DJ who specializes in cruise-in
events has been hired, and will be on hand to play all of the cool
old car tunes from the 1950’s, 60’s and 70’s. Photographers will
snap shots of the vehicles for inclusion on our SHPOA website,
and celebrity judges will pick out their own favorite vehicles for
recognition.
The Cruise-In will be held Saturday in our “new” grass lot, just
to the east of the Max Powers Community Building parking lot.
The New Jasper Fire Dept will be on hand to help park the show
vehicles and to keep everyone safe.
If you have a collector car or truck, or indeed any special vehicle that you would like to display, bring it on
out! Don’t worry if it is not perfect, or even if it is an incomplete project car on a trailer. We would love to see all
the special vehicles from our community, and we won’t mind a few little flaws or missing parts. It might even win
a prize, just as it is!
The event is not restricted to SHPOA community vehicles only, but only SHPOA member-owned vehicles will
be eligible to be featured in SMOKE SIGNALS. Any age or type of special vehicle is welcome. Decisions by our
staff and judges will be final. Entry fee for each vehicle will be just $5, and all proceeds will go to the SHPOA
community fund.
For details on the Duck Grab or the first-ever SHPOA Cruise-In, contact us via email newsletter@
shawneelake.org, or if you do not have internet access, call SHPOA clerk Janet Barker at 937-902-6194.

Shawnee Lake Club Information
You Can Get in Shape in
20 Minutes!!!
Experts offer advice on
making the most of your limited
time. Although most health
recommendations are for a halfhour workout daily, a concentrated
20 minutes can be just as effective.
The idea is to do as much as you
can in that 20 minutes.
Many researchers have studied
the effect that intervals had on
various groups of people. Intervals
meaning short bursts of intense
exercise. They found that a
20-minute workout consisting of
one minute of strenuous activity
alternated with a minute of easy
recover, had significant health and
fitness effects on unfit volunteers,
cardiac patients and in diabetics.
There is a lot of benefit in 20
minutes if done the right way.
Experts in physical education
recommend doing a “superset workout”, moving from one
strength-training exercise to
the next without stopping, then
repeating the set at least one more
time.
For example do a set of squats
(lower body, abs and core) followed
by bench pressing (arms and
4
chest) and row exercise (back).
Remembering to always do larger
muscle exercises before smaller
muscle exercises, and alternate
muscle groups.
One research group suggested a
20-minute workout that alternates
one minute of running or cycling
hard with one minute of decreased
intensity, done a couple of times a
week.
Once again any time you start
a fitness program for the first time
you should discuss your plans with
your physician. Next month we
will have some tips and ideas that
you can incorporate with this same
pattern while swimming or doing
calisthenics.
(Article taken in part form “Healthy Living”)
This 20 minute theory is basically
what our instructors do for our
toning and conditioning. They also
use weights for strength training
and some Yoga for stretching and
flexibility. Nothing too difficult.
We have classes available every
morning at the Baptist Church on
Jasper Rd or at the Max Powers’
Community Building you can check
your Smoke Signals calendar
for the times. If you have any
questions you can contact Susan at
675-2189 Mary at 287-8700 or Tina
at 675-2093. Would love to have
you join.

PART
Did you know that free-standing kitchen ranges and
improperly installed built-in ranges can tilt forward
when too much weight is applied to an open oven
door? This can result in death or serious injuries
from being trapped under the range, and scalds and
burns caused by hot food and liquids falling from the
cooktop.
For protection against range tipping, make sure the
anti-tip device (included with the product) is installed.
This device secures the range to the floor, wall or
cabinet and helps prevent it from tipping. Remember
to reengage the anti-tip device if the range is moved
for cleaning or repair.
While such an accident can happen to anyone, small
children and elderly people are especially vulnerable
to accidental range tipping. The Association of Home
Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) urges parents to
supervise children when they are in the kitchen and
teach them the safe use of the range. No one should
ever use the oven door for support.
Consult the manual before using a range to
make yourself aware of safety guidelines. Read the
instructions on how to check your range for the proper
installation of the anti-tip device. Only use appliances
for the tasks they are designed to do.
to Protect Against
Range Tipping...
Educate
children
on the
proper
and safe
use of the
range.
Always make sure the proper anti-tip
device is correctly installed. Contact
the range manufacturer, your appliance
dealer or an authorized service agent
for information and assistance or to
obtain a replacement anti-tip device.
Always
keep the
range
door
closed
when not
in use!
Never use
the door as
a step stool,
seat or as
a support
for body
weight or
other
objects.
