Kim Pascuito is the representative from CCAN (Central Coast Ag Network), Sandra Diamond represents the No. County Farmers Market and talked about their role in tastings and providing fresh local produce to schools. Christina talked about her ag program at the school and about the Soils to Succulent Flavors she has been teaching for the HEAL SLO grant. Eileen talked about the school's wellness policies and how the Healthy Hornets are involved in the grant . Laverne talked briefly about the San Miguel Resource Connection's role in facilitating the grant. Both teachers were well received by those in attendance.

Weekend Gardener Final Sales |
||
 |
||
Locals are encouraged to shop the final close out sale of the remaining plant and tree inventory, to show support for this lovely downtown business. All inventory is selling at 50% off for the final weekend, ending November 15th. A few fruit and shade trees are left with a large selection of perennial and succulents still available. The Weekend Gardener is open Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm. See complete details on their website. Christmas Trees will be sold on the lot to benefit the North County Humane Society, starting the day after Thanksgiving. Owners of the Weekend Gardener have decided to close their beautiful garden oasis downtown due to recent vandalism. Pet ducks living in the gardened lot were brutally killed most likely by a large dog with the aid of someone cutting the lock on the gate. Owner, Leila Harrington stated, "The Weekend Gardener has been struggling through the temperature extremes, but was surviving. As you know, most of what we have accomplished at The Weekend Gardener was through hard work and love for people, the outdoors, and a beautiful garden. In light of this horrendous experience, we have decided to close The Weekend Gardener. It saddens me to make this decision. I will not be having any kind of grand exit, but would like to sell off as much as our inventory as possible in the next few weeks." |

 Haunted House event photos by Mike Sanders |

On Halloween night a Haunted House was enjoyed by over two hundred people at the San Miguel Community Center / Lions Club. The event was FREE for all ages for family fun. Tours of the haunted house walked through many spooky rooms with live ghosts, monsters, witches, and a "spirited" coffin. The Game Room offered activities from Pumpkin Basketball to Face Painting. There was a Pumpkin Carving and Costume Contest as well as hot dogs and refreshments served by the San Miguel Volunteer Firefighters. The Monster Mash Dance enjoyed spooky vibes with DJ John Oliver. *Click here for a detailed flyer of all the activities and list of wonderful folks sponsoring the event. Special thanks to the San Miguel Lions for donating use of the building and to everyone who made this a great event!!! |

Swine Flu Tips from |
||
 Twin Cities Hospital is prepared for flu season |
||
The main symptoms of H1N1 flu are the same as any other type of viral flu infection – fever (usually over 100° F), chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headaches and fatigue. Some people also have diarrhea and vomiting. If you develop flu-like symptoms, you should stay home from work or school. You can return after your fever has been gone for 24 hours without taking fever-reducing medications like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Most people are able to recover at home. You should get plenty of rest and fluids like water and juices. You can take acetamophen or ibuprofen for fever, body aches and headaches, but be sure you follow directions to ensure you aren’t taking too much. Remember that products containing aspirin should never be given to children or teenagers who have flu-like symptoms. Read detailed tips from Twin Cities Hospital. Twin Cities Community Hospital continues to closely monitor the situation regarding H1N1 and seasonal flu outbreaks in our area. During the past several years, Twin Cities Community Hospital has developed plans to address serious illnesses that could have a significant impact on our community, including a flu outbreak.
