Jan Felton pours a lifetime of experience into her theater group, Past Prime Time Players. It’s a vivacious theater community set apart from others in Lane County because it was started by older adults for older adults.

“The Last Footlights” will be on stage at 7:30 p.m. May 12, Willamalane Adult Activity Center, 215 W. C St., Springfield. $10. 541-736-4444. A second performance is at 2 p.m. May 13, River Road Park District, 1400 Lake Dr., Eugene. $18, includes the show, dessert and chance to meet the cast. 541-688-4052.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “This is a performing arts group that was started by seniors, for seniors, and is probably the only place where seniors can audition for something like this,” says Felton, who has been directing Players’ plays for almost seven years. “I’ve been in theater all my life, and my experience has been that people who are older have so much more experience, obviously, than very young newcomers, but they rarely have an opportunity to show their talents.” That’s because, she says, particularly in musical theater, there are very few roles written for older adults. Past Prime Time Players seeks to be different by casting productions exclusively with older adults. Felton started musical theater at a very young age when her mother took her to Cornish School (now Cornish University for Performing Arts) in Seattle. There, she learned drama, dance and piano. “I just got bitten by the bug and it never quit,” she says. While living in Santa Cruz, California, Felton founded Broadway by the Bay, a musical theater company. Now living in the Eugene area, she has directed the Springfield Jazz Singers

Robert Nelson and Pat Weaver also have roles in the upcoming musical, which gives them an opportunity to share a dialogue about aging. and The Rivertones. She also sings in an a cappella trio called The Sweet Refrains. She likes that Past Prime Time Players comprises a wide variety of experience. “There’s quite a diverse group of performers here,” Felton says. “This is an interesting group of people. There
is everything from one man who has never ever, ever, in his entire life been on stage before, through quite a few people who have done a lot of community theater here, up to and including a woman who is a powerhouse singer and in her younger days was a back-up singer for Barbara

Streisand, Jose Feliciano, people like that.” Felton says that although Past Prime Time Players’ productions are cast exclusively by seniors, their shows will entertain all ages, including their most recent production, “The Last Footlights,” Felton’s original musical comedy. “This upcoming play is a rollicking good time musical comedy for everybody,” she says. “It will resonate with older people because it does talk about some of the things that will happen after they retire.”
The content wrestles with how retirees feel they are no longer contributing members of society, something Felton believes “for younger people would be very enlightening. Some people feel like, as they get (much) older, they are invisible to the rest of the world.” But, she stresses, it’s a comedy. “It’s going to be a fun show with delightful music and some comedy here and there,” Felton says. “So, it’s for everyone.” Felton has big plans for her theater troupe. “I’ve always wanted to have a repertory company, but so far we’ve just done it by the production,” she says. For now, the time commitments are restricted to play production, with rehearsals typically meeting twice a week. “The Last Footlights” began rehearsing in February. ■

MASTER GARDENER
I love the month of May. The birds are all atwitter, warm, sunny days are becoming more common, and we still have the whole gardening season ahead of us. Now that the soil has warmed up a bit, I’ve been busy getting all my earlier plant purchases relegated to their homes. I admit I went a little crazy with online plant shopping earlier this spring. It was partly fueled by the cold weather that made being outside pursuits very unpleasant. I found some really nice plants online that I have been unable to find locally. After they were delivered, I unpacked them and kept them safely nestled under my patio roof until now. Sometimes we have to splurge, and my indulgences are almost always garden related. I know I’m not alone.

Oregon military museum honors its volunteers
Volunteers of the Oregon Coast Military Museum were recognized in March by the Florence City Council. The council presented a proclamation, presented by Mayor Joe Henry, which designates March 18-24 as Oregon Coast Military Museum Volunteer Appreciation Week. The proclamation was accepted by Museum Chief of Staff Geoff Cannon, and volunteer David Burkett, also an ex-officio board member representing the volunteers. On March 18, the museum’s board of directors held a barbecue for the volunteers, thanking them for their service. In his remarks to the volunteers, President Gene Wobbe said, “While the board and executive director work behind the scenes, you along with Geoff are the face of the museum to the community. We couldn’t accomplish our mission without you volunteering your time and talents, and we do appreciate that.” The museum, located at 2145 Kingwood St., Florence, is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursdays to Saturdays.

ignore the regular maintenance. The soil is still moist, so the weeds pull fairly easily and really should be tackled before they go to seed. Applying a layer of compost or mulch over the soil will help deter more weeds from taking
hold. Early flowering shrubs that have finished blooming can be deadheaded or pruned. And plants can still be moved to that better spot if care is taken while digging, so as not to destroy the roots. Be sure to keep the soil moist until they’ve settled into their new location. But even more fun than the maintenance (is maintenance fun?) is the planting. The warm-season vegetables can be planted into the garden or into large containers if the nighttime temperatures are averaging above 50 degrees. If the forecast calls for cooler nights, you can use cloth or plastic barriers to insulate them. This time of year, garden clubs and Master Gardeners are hosting plant sales. They don’t always do a lot of advertising, but their times and locations can be found by searching online. There are

several local sales that I attend every year. The prices are unbeatable and the money I spend is put to good use for that particular organization. Garden touring is also a fun activity for outdoor lovers. Being able to see how other gardeners showcase their plants and implement design ideas is truly a special kind of learning experience. Most often it’s OK to take photos for reference. Gardeners don’t mind if we copy each other’s tricks in our own gardens. In fact, it’s considered a compliment. For plant sales, garden tours or nursery treks, be sure to wear comfortable shoes, and take water, snacks and money with you. A long-ago friend and longtime Oregon gardener once said to me, “Hail is common in spring. Let’s just hope it happens before the hosta leaf out.” Truer words were never spoken. ■

Local experts offer tips on how to protect your skin at any age
By VANESSA SALVIA BOOMER & SENIOR NEWS
Aging skin — that dreaded phrase brings fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, sagging, and the risk of cancer. Aging is a fact of life and some natural skin changes are unavoidable. Denying it won’t do any good. But, using good judgment, combined with quality skin care products, can keep women and men looking youthful as long as possible. So, what’s happening to our skin? Collagen is the body’s primary structural protein. After age 20, the skin produces one percent less of collagen in the

fragile as we age. The skin’s natural exfoliation processes slow down as we age as well, causing the
skin to look dull. The number one way to protect your skin is to avoid the harmful rays of the sun.

As Beverly Hills dermatologist Harold Lancer told Harper’s Bazaar, “The only time you don’t need sunscreen is when you need a flashlight to see.” However, most of us aren’t that diligent about wearing sunscreen. “But there really can’t be enough emphasis on wearing sunscreen because most of our external damage is caused by sun damage, so really that is one of the best things you can do — start early and wear it year-round,” says Nicole Shannon, esthetics instructor at Eugene’s IBS School of Cosmetology. Anti-aging starts with sunscreen and continues with overall healthy practices. “Drink lots of water, and if you don’t like the taste of water add something to it like fruit,” Shannon says. “Eat a balanced diet with fresh fruits and vegetables that minimizes processed food intake. Sugar is not good for our skin. Avoid drinking, smoking and drugs.” That’s not to say that you can’t enjoy a beer or a slice of chocolate cake, but practice moderation in things that are known to be unhealthy. And add exercise to your daily routine. “Fitness is a great way to de-stress but it’s also a great way to help your skin,” Shannon says. “Stress produces hormones that can damage our skin.” Lastly, to decrease the effects of aging on your skin, get adequate amounts of sleep. This enables the body to heal itself and keeps skin from looking dry and dull. Don’t discount visiting a skin expert, who can help you set up a skin care regimen that considers your specific needs and concerns, and actively addresses any issues. “Also, estheticians have access to advanced machines and products that you can’t buy over the counter, and these products really work, so we can do more work in a shorter period of time than what you can do at home,” Shannon says. Dena Purich founded Revive Skin Health, which specializes in cosmetic products and procedures, such as Botox, facials and a variety of skin treatments. She’s located next door to Cascade Dermatology, which provides the medical prevention and treatments for issues such as skin cancer and pre-cancer, warts and psoriasis. “We recommend staying out of the sun as the number one line of defense for skin health,” Purich says. “If that’s not possible, then protect your facial skin, especially, by wearing wide-brimmed hats and wearing sun-protective clothing in the garden or

Experts agree: You need these ingredients
When you’re searching out products for skin care, stick with what experts recommend. There is a lot of misinformation and exaggeration in the world of skin care. Here’s a list of products that actually work. Retinoids — Retinoids are a vitamin A derivative and the stronger ones are prescription-only because they are so powerful. Start out slowly, because the side effects are dryness, redness and peeling. “They really do help with fine lines and wrinkles but you have to work into using them,” Shannon says. “Use them every two or three days only.” Over-the-counter products are less powerful. Retinoids also make your skin more sen-
sitive to sun, so use them in the evenings. Antioxidants — Most anti-aging products contain some form of antioxidants. Revive Skin Health favors a product called CR Ferulic by Skinceuticals. “They’ve done a lot of research that shows that it diminishes sun damage and prevents future sun damage from developing,” Purich says. Antioxidants work both externally and internally to combat cell damage. Hyaluronic acid — This ingredient is recommended because it holds and locks moisture into the skin. As we age, the natural barrier that holds in moisture breaks down. Hydrating the skin makes it look younger and healthier. Ceramides and peptides — Shannon says these are good ingredients that also help with water content in the skin and they also help our skin naturally repair itself. Shannon warns, though, that many companies are adding pep-
SKIN CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 while you’re doing outdoor activities.” She’ll often hear others say they’re using a moisturizer with sunscreen in it. But that’s not adequate. “I tell them that’s great, but it’s a moisturizer not a sunscreen,” Purich says. “You want to apply a sunscreen on top of that and make sure it has an active ingredient of zinc oxide as a physical blocker.” Skin damage is often overlooked when older adults visit their doctor. While only a dermatologist can diagnose skin cancer, estheticians talk about precursors to skin cancer, known as actinic keratosis, or AK. “They pop up as darker spots,” Purich says. “They look a little raised and a little dry and it’s pretty common for people in their 50s, 60s and older to develop them. Pre-cancer mutations can be treated quite easily with a trip to the dermatologist, and that’s why it’s important to see a dermatologist at least yearly to make sure those lesions don’t turn into cancer.” It’s also important to keep an eye on moles.
Wear a hat when out in the sun (yes, even on cloudy days) and use a sunscreen that has both physical and chemical blockers in it. According to the Melanoma Research Foundation, melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, and skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States. Nearly 90 percent of melanomas are thought to be caused by exposure to UV light and sunlight. ■

tides to skin care products because they can charge more for it but there’s actually a limit to the benefits you’ll get from peptides. Alpha hydroxy acid — Also known as AHAs, these help significantly with exfoliation. As we age, our skin’s natural exfoliation slows down, so increasing that cell turnover rate helps skin look younger. “AHAs encourage cell growth, adds brightening, helps uneven skin tone and roughness,” Shannon says. The most effective AHA is glycolic acid because it is the smallest molecule size. But that can also make it more irritating to sensitive skin. Lactic acid is a larger molecule and is commonly used because it is less irritating, but it doesn’t penetrate as deeply as glycolic acid. See page 6 for sunscreen tips
6 SOUTH VALLEY EDITION Sunscreen — There are two types of sunscreens: physical and chemical. Physical sunscreen blocks UV rays when they hit the skin. Chemical blockers absorb into the skin and absorb the sunlight as it hits the skin. Most manufacturers use both blockers in a single product. The old-school zinc oxide that surfers used to

Understand, improve mental health Many people feel that having a mental health issue is shameful and should be hidden from others. People, especially older adults, often fail to mention their concerns when they visit their doctor and end up suffering in silence. Many people say that the isolation and shame that goes with the illness can be worse than the condition itself. In reality, mental health illnesses and disorders are much more common and treatable than most of us realize. Every year, as many as one in five people in the United States experiences a mental health illness or disorder. The most common issues are anxiety and depression. Your doctor’s office is a great place to start when it comes to getting treatment, which could include seeing a counselor or learning about medications that may be a good fit. One of the best ways to reduce stigma around mental illness is to increase our knowledge and understanding of the topic. Mental health is a spectrum from wellness to illness, and it includes all the points in between. A good first step is to talk
openly about your own struggles and take care of yourself when you feel overwhelmed. No one should feel afraid to say that they are struggling with their health, whether it is physical or mental. Keeping your mind and body fit is important for your mental health. Some helpful tips to improve mental health include: Go outside. No matter the weather, getting outside will help release endorphins throughout your system to create an increased sense of wellbeing and positive feelings. Exercise. Exercise will also boost endorphins throughout the body, making you feel more happy and relaxed. Exercising regularly can also help grow confidence levels and self-esteem. Connect with others. Having family and friends you can turn to gives a sense of positive connectedness. Having a support system and group can also help increase feelings of belonging. Be honest with yourself. If you’re struggling, tell your close friends or family members how you are feeling. They may be able to help you or refer you to resources that can help you get through what you’re experiencing.
Getting educated can also help. Samaritan offers Mental Health First Aid, an eighthour training that introduces participants to the unique risk factors and warning signs of
mental health problems, builds understanding of the importance of early intervention, and teaches people how to help someone who is in crisis or experiencing a men-

Protecting the next generation 8 SOUTH VALLEY EDITION
By B. LEE COYNE, MSW
When we moved into daylight savings time last month, we moved our clocks forward. And less than a year from now our State Legislature convenes, so let’s hope these forward-looking lawmakers step forward as well. Here are three proposals I would love to have enacted in 2019. School guidance counselors: At a very minimum let’s require that every middle and high school in Oregon be equipped with a counselor trained in what specific stressors likely lead to violent behavior. Along with that, stemming the volume of peer pressure needs

to be pursued. Early signs of encroaching depression must be monitored and treated. If but one suicide is prevented, we all are the benefactors of an upgraded system. Mandating CRP training: We can close ranks by demanding that CPR or first aid training be included as part of health education classes at all our high schools. Many students will be involved in driving before they graduate. Knowing first aid can underscore how teens are less than invincible. And it can lead to compassion. broadened Plus, it may lead to the sav-
ing of lives and limbs. Local social work school: Oregon has but one grad school for social work students. Unfortunately, it is housed in Portland where rents are sky-high. A second social work school in the Salem area has many advantages. One particular advantage is the proximity to Oregon State Hospital, which provides mental health treatment. Even more, there are state penitentiaries handling adult corrections, the Oregon Youth Authority addresses troubled juveniles, and Salem is the headquarters for the Oregon Health
Plan. Aging, disability and addiction policies are also shaped in Salem. All of these provide excellent fieldwork for future social workers who can work alongside policy planners who can act to train them beyond casework acumen. This helps this very important next generation of social workers to be even smarter and more effective in our state. I believe they can even back up our corps of first responders when trauma sets in for survivors of the “big one.” We must ponder that terrible scene sooner rather than later. Enacting laws that allow
funds and programs such as these to move forward benefit our society as a whole because we’re taking steps to ensure that we look out for one another, and that we have the tools to do so. As much as we’d like everyone in society to be mentally and physically well, we know that’s not always the case. Teaching our children at home and in school how to recognize warning signs, and how to step in during an emergency helps Oregonians be at their best. ■ (B. Lee Coyne worked in the field of mental health counseling and was also a Red Cross debriefer in New York City following the tragedy on Sept. 11, 2011.)
