Finding Your "Active Balance" in Fitness & In Life
Chiropractor and Certified Personal Trainer, Mandy Rhodes, is dedicated to
helping people get motivated and staying focused in fitness and in life!!
She describes herself as being a normal person just like you that has
struggles getting up in the morning, not always eating the fruit plate
instead of the bowl of ice cream and not always wanting to get up at 5:30
and to run.  And that's ok!!!  Working out, eating right and managing life's
stresses are all part of a normal healthy lifestyle, it's just keeping it
all organized and staying on track that is the difficult part. That's where
Mandy comes in.  She has spent years working on new ways to have fun while
working out and enjoying the benefits that come along with it.  She wants to
share what has worked for her and help you find what will work best for you
and your goals!!    Mandy believes that working out should be fun, it should
feel good and it shouldn't take up your whole day with a long trip to the
gym, getting a babysitter and having dinner running late just so you can go.
Fitness should be a way of life that you enjoy, that fits in your busy
schedule and that can shift from time to time when things come up.  Mandy's
goal is to teach how to work out and to inspire you to do it on your own.
Her program, Create Your Own Workout, is a 6 week program teaching you how
to exercise, how to motivate and challenge yourself and tie it all together
into a workout that makes sense for you and your body.  At the end of the 6
week you will be able to perform the exercises, add cardio and get a great
workout that fits your fitness level and how you feel that day, all without
having to leave your home.  Working out is easier than you think!!!!
Contact Mandy to find out how easy fitness really is.

Protect-A-Child Pool Fence
Protect-A-Child has been producing strong, quality removable mesh fencing
for over 25 years. Their fiberglass posts have been independently tested to
be the strongest in the market and offer shock support and flexibility not
found in aluminum poles. Fiberglass poles do not heat up when it is over 90
degrees, like aluminum poles, which can burn baby.  Plus they are not
affected by UV rays or corrosion.   Two hands are required to unlatch
sections with their patented Point Lock Secure Latches instead of the
typical one finger pop-off of "hook and eye" latches found on most fences.
For a free estimate or to get more information, contact the local
Protect-A-Child distributor, Gene Bissinger, at 818-710-9979.

Vacation Condo in Mammoth/Yosemite Available for Trade!
Lovely 1 bedroom vacation condo next to the Village in Mammoth Lakes,
California. It has a queen bed and twin children's bunks in the bedroom, as
well as a pull out queen sleeper sofa in the living room. There is a lovely
woodburning fireplace and tons of books, games & puzzles. The small complex

pong table.
Mammoth Lakes is an incredible place to visit in the winter of course and
the Village Gondola which puts you right on the mountain at Canyon Lodge is
only steps away from our door. There is so much snow this year on the
mountain that the main lodge is expected to stay open through July 4th
weekend, even though down in the Village the golf course opens Memorial Day
Weekend! Believe it or not, in the summer Mammoth is even MORE incredible.
Surrounded by hiking, biking, fishing, golfing and beautiful lakes, the
Ansel Adams wilderness is only minutes away and Yosemite is a 45 minute
drive. The Village (next to our condo) hosts free movies and outdoor
concerts as well as art, wine and Jazz festivals. If you would like to see

yours, please email Debi at Debilewin at sbcglobal.net

Save Our State Parks
On July 1st, the Governor plans to cut the state parks budget in half and
then eliminate all funding for parks in 12 months. Without this money, the
state will have no choice but to close the majority of our park system.  In
other words, the Governor plans to close 80% of the state parks system,
approximately 220 State Parks across California. Tell the Governor and your
state legislators that you want them to keep our California parks open. To
take action on this issue, click on the link below:
