Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Club held a DNR ATV Safety Course
on April 8th and 9th. The event, was held at the Townsend Town Hall
and attracted students of all ages from as far as Fond du Lac. Lead
Instructor Larry Westphal, Instructor Carl Christensen and Apprentice
Instructor Julie Rost led the two-day course and were very pleased
with the attention of the students. Sixteen students passed the exam
and received their riding certificates.
Instructors reminded the group to spread the word that anyone born
after January 1st, 1988 must complete the course to ride an ATV legal-
ly in Wisconsin. Currently that means that anyone 29 years old or
younger must have completed the course. An on-line version is availa-
ble thru the DNR but younger students are highly encouraged to take
the classroom version for maximum effect.
Congratulations to all the graduates and their parents who encouraged
them to take the course. Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Club has been serving the Townsend area since 1968 and is responsible for
the maintenance and grooming of snowmobile and ATV trails in and around Townsend. Thanks to the Town of Townsend for the
generous use of their facility. If you missed this course, Red Arrow and the Hidden Bear Trail ATV Club will be conducting another
class July 6th and 7th, check the DNRs GoWild website for all safety class offerings.
You can find out more about Red Arrow activities by visiting our website at www.redarrowtownsend.com or visiting our Facebook
page from the link on the website home page. Come ride with us and enjoy our trails. We are right in the middle of well over 1000
miles of fully interconnected ATV/UTV trails.

2017 Family History Conference

ARLINGTON, VA,

Registration is now open for the National Genealogical Societys thirty-Ninth annual Family History Conference, Family History
Lives Here, which will be held 1013 May 2017 at the Raleigh [NC] Convention Center. To register on or after 1 December 2016,
visit the NGS website at http://conference.ngsgenealogy.org/register/ and complete the online registration form.

Throughout its history, North Carolina has been home to a diverse population including Native Americans and those who trace their
heritage back to Europe and Africa. During colonial times, it was one of a few colonies that embraced religious diversity, welcoming
Quakers, Huguenots, Methodists, and Moravians. It is a land rich in cultural
traditions. From the lighthouses on the outer banks to the falling waters on the
Piedmont, to the dramatic overlooks in the mountains, this land calls us back
to take a closer look. The Tar Heel story is vibrant, shared through the words
of each family, and recorded in the wonderful records, manuscripts, and arti-
facts preserved in the numerous North Carolina archives, special collections,
museums, libraries, historical sites, and societies.

With a focus on records, repositories and methodology, the conference pro-

gram offers family historians numerous topics to help them advance their re-
search. Other genealogical subjects featured at the NGS Family History Con-
ference will include US Reconstruction, maps and locations, historical context,
and research tips and techniques. Some highlights of the sessions are Deborah
Abbotts Stories from the Back Door of the Swannanoa-Berkeley Hotel: My
Family History , Rick Fogartys The Moravians and the Cherokees: From
Piedmont to Tahlequah, and Angela Packer McGhies Using Identity Char-
acteristics to Locate Your Ancestors. A four-day DNA track features lectures on interesting developments and uses of DNA tests,
and thorough analysis of the results. A workshop on chromosome mapping and a workshop on creating DNA citations and proof
arguments are also planned. Single-day tracks focus on church records, military topics, and Native American research. Technology
and its increasing role in research is addressed in a variety of presentations including a two-day track on tools and methods to use
technology to enhance your family history research. A Skillbuilding track will again be sponsored by the Board for the Certification
of Genealogists (BCG) for intermediate to advanced researchers interested in improving their research skills.

A number of special events have been planned with limited seating, so be sure to register on 1 December, or as soon as possible
thereafter, if you plan to attend these events.

To register online, visit the NGS website at http://conference.ngsgenealogy.org/register/

The online searchable program is available at http://conference.ngsgenealogy.org/program/ and the PDF brochure is available at
http://goo.gl/w40zSO
.
The brochure includes an overview of the sessions, tours, pre-conference events, registration times, and rates as well as general con-
ference and hotel details. Attendees are urged to visit the conference blog,
http://conference.ngsgenealogy.org/blog/, which will feature tips on local and regional research facilities, things to do in and around
North Carolina, and updated information on hotel availability and local restaurants.

Founded in 1903, the National Genealogical Society is dedicated to Genealogical education, exemplary standards of research, and the
preservation of genealogical records. The Arlington, Virginia -based nonprofit is the premier national society for everyone, from the
beginner to the most advanced family historian seeking excellence in publications, educational offerings, and guidance in research. It
also offers many opportunities to interact with other genealogists.

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam

Sciatica describes persistent pain felt along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back, down through the
buttock, and into the lower leg. The sciatic nerve is the longest and widest nerve in the body, running from the
lower back through the buttocks and down the back of each leg. It controls the muscles of the lower leg and pro-
vides sensation to the thighs, legs, and the soles of the feet.
Although sciatica is a relatively common form of low-back and leg
pain, the true meaning of the term is often misunderstood. Sciatica is
actually a set of symptomsnot a diagnosis for what is irritating the
nerve root and causing the pain.
What are the symptoms of sciatica?
The most common symptom associated with sciatica is pain that radi-
ates along the path of the sciatic nerve, from the lower back and down
one leg; however, symptoms can vary widely depending on where the
sciatic nerve is affected. Some may experience a mild tingling, a dull
ache, or even a burning sensation, typically on one side of the body.
What are my treatment options?
For most
people, sciatica responds very well to conservative care,
including chiropractic. Keeping in mind that sciatica is a
symptom and not a stand-alone medical condition, treat-
ment plans will often vary depending on the underlying
cause of the problem

An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Pound of Cure

While its not always possible to prevent sciatica, consid-
er these suggestions to help protect your back and im-
prove your spinal health.

Maintain a healthy diet and weight

Exercise regularly
Maintain proper posture
Avoid prolonged inactivity or bed rest
If you smoke, seek help to quit
Use good body mechanics when lifting

Community Ambulance Service
PO Box 92, Townsend WI 54175
March 1, 2017
Friends of Lakewood Townsend Ambulance Service
Community Ambulance Service, a non-profit organization, has
provided emergency medical services to the Lakewood Town-
send area since 1974. We are writing to ask for your continued
support by a monetary donation for the purchase of two new
cardiac monitors. Our current cardiac monitors are soon to be
obsolete.
Cardiac monitors are used for monitoring critical data including
vitals, heart rhythms, CO2, CO, oxygen saturation in the blood
stream, and defibrillation. These are all essential tools for opti-
mal patient care. The cardiac monitors are required to be carried
in our ambulances and help us to maintain the quality of care we
provide.
The costs for the monitors are sixty thousand dollars for both.
As we all know budgets are tight at all levels of governmental
agencies and that is why we are asking for your support. Any
donation that you would like to make is truly appreciated. Our
goal is to have them purchased by June 1, 2017 to maintain cur-
rent pricing.
Checks are made payable to Community Ambulance at PO Box
92 Townsend WI 54175. You may also drop donations off at
our building located at 16003 Village View Rd in Townsend.
We sincerely appreciate all past donations that helped us main-
tain our service and would like to THANK YOU in advance for
any donation you choose to make.
Members of Lakewood Townsend Community Ambulance Ser-
vice
P.S. Please share this request with any non-taxpayer that may
want to help us to reach our goal.

Oh no, the unthinkable hap- pens. You are injured in your home and need medical assistance. Or, you get sick and cant get to
your vehicle to drive yourself to the hospital. You call 911. The ambulance arrives and the crew determines you need to get to a
hospital. An anxious time indeed. Then, you think of it. What will happen to my doggie or fluffy while I am gone? Will I be in the
hospital a long time. Who will care for my four leggeds then? As some of you know,
I am an EMT locally. Unfortunately I have come across this situation more and more.
What happens to our pets if I have to go to the hospital?

Of course, we never think it will happen. But, what if it does? Do you have a plan in
place if you have to leave them? Is a neighbor nearby that can look after them? How
about family? It would be wise to have a plan in place just in case. What if you have
other animals? Can someone help care for them while you are gone? Something to
think about. Of course, I dont want anyone to get hurt or sick. Being a pet owner
myself, I want to know that my four legged friend will be cared for if the unthinkable
happens. Let EMS, Fire and Law enforcement know that they are cared for by some-
one if you have to leave them. We all would feel better knowing you have a plan for
them so we can care for you, whatever the situation.
And by the way, the ticks are out too. Just part of spring.
