Fourth of July is Independence Day

Independence Day honors the birthday of the United States of America and the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. It's a day of picnics and patriotic parades, a night of concerts and fireworks, and a reason to fly the American flag.

The History of The Stars and Stripes The Stars and Stripes originated as a result of a resolution adopted by the Marine Committee of the Second Continental Congress at Philadelphia on June 14, 1777. The resolution read: "Resolved, that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field representing a new constellation.â&#x20AC;? The resolution gave no instruction as to how many points the stars should have, or how the stars should be arranged on the blue union. Consequently, some flags had stars scattered on the blue field without any specific design, some arranged the stars in rows, and some in a circle. The Continued on Page 3

How to Obtain a Flag Flown Over the Capitol Constituents may arrange to purchase flags that have been flown over the Capitol by getting in touch with their Senators or Representative. A certificate signed by the Architect of the Capitol accompanies each flag.

Flags are available for purchase in sizes of 3' x 5' or 5' x 8' in fabrics of cotton and nylon. Information obtained from www.Publications.USA.gov

Summer Reminders from the City of Janesville The Fourth of July, vacation from school and being outdoors make summer a great season. The City would like to remind residents of the following issues to make sure that everyone has an enjoyable and safe summer.

Fireworks Safety first Navy Stars and Stripes had the stars arranged in staggered formation in alternate rows of threes and twos on a blue field. Other Stars and Stripes flags had stars arranged in alternate rows of four, five and four. Some stars had six points while others had eight. Strong evidence indicates that Francis Hopkinson of New Jersey, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, was responsible for the stars in the U.S. flag. At the time that the flag resolution was adopted, Hopkinson was the Chairman of the Continental Navy Board's Middle Department. Hopkinson also helped design other devices for the Government including the Great Seal of the United States.

It is important that you are aware of the important legal regulations and safety precautions involved with fireworks. Always read and follow all firework warnings and instructions and never allow children to handle, play with or light any fireworks. Legal fireworks include sparklers, toy snakes, cylindrical or cone fountains, and poppers and caps with less than one quarter of a grain of explosive. Anything else that explodes, flies, moves across the ground, burns or emits sparks and does not have another common use is a firework and its sale, possession and use is prohibited by State Law. For more information about fireworks, please contact the Janesville Fire Department at 755-3050.

Alzheimer’s Family and Caregivers Support Program By Amber Schmidt, Information & Assistance Specialist, Aging and Disability Resource Center

id you know that every 67 seconds someone in the United States develops Alzheimer's? Also, in 2013, 15.5 million family and friends provided 17.7 billion hours of unpaid care to those with Alzheimer's and other dementias – care valued at $220.2 billion, which is nearly eight times the total revenue of McDonald's in 2012. Retrieved from Alzheimer’s Association; alz.org (http://www.alz. org/alzheimers_disease_facts_and_ figures.asp.) Because of this high volume of need, the Alzheimer’s Family and Caregivers Support Program was developed to provide assistance to families and their loved ones. The Alzheimer’s Family and Caregivers support program, or AFCSP, is a program created by the Wisconsin legislature in 1985 in response to the stress and needs of families caring at home for someone with irreversible dementia. To be eligible, a person must have a

diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or a related disorder, and be financially eligible. The program is available in every county throughout the state of Wisconsin. Alzheimer’s is a debilitating disease that attacks an individual’s memory and ability to think, reason and make appropriate judgments. The disease often progresses to a point that an individual forgets who they are, where they live and how to function

in daily life. With all of these factors coming into play, family members often struggle emotionally, physically and financially in order to provide adequate care for their loved one. The Alzheimer’s Family and Caregivers Support Program in Rock County may provide up to $2000 per year for each participant in the program. Participants may receive a variety of services offered through various providers of service

throughout the county (no cash grants are given). Some of those services include: day care, respite, supportive home care, home delivered meals, life line, personal care, transportation, etc. In order to be eligible for the program a single person or couple may have an annual income of $40,000 or less. If the income is above $40,000, the cost related to Alzheimer’s may be subtracted from the gross income in order to bring the income below the $40,000. There is no asset limit for the program. The person must also have a written confirmation by a physician of a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or any other irreversible dementia. Funding is limited annually so a waitlist may exist for these services. Every effort will be made to provide you with funding as quickly as possible. Please contact the Aging and Disability Resource Center of Rock County to speak to an Information and Assistance Specialist for additional information and/or to check for eligibility for the program. 608-741-3600

Leona Petit

Leona Petit has lived in Beloit since she was nine years old and has raised her family here. When Leona moved to Riverside Terrace in early 2011, she didn’t realize how many residents would be familiar faces. “Some of us even had our first jobs together,” she explains. “It’s so nice to not be alone and feel so comfortable.” What else does Leona like about her Riverside Terrace apartment?

“I can’t come up with anything I don’t love!” she replies. She enjoys the programs, delicious food, and is one of the “Baking Ladies” concocting goodies for the residents. Her doctor and children wanted her to live where she could “be active” and she is!

Summer Reading By Gayle Lange Puhl

like to read mysteries in the summer. Some are classics like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “The Hound of the Baskervilles”. It’s like a mini-vacation to bustle with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson through Victorian London then roam the moors of Devonshire on the trail of a deadly legend. If you like your mysteries in short chunks, Doyle’s collections of short detective stories, like “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” or “The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes” hold some of his best. Doyle also wrote a number of other books, notable among them the funny adventures of Brigadier Gerard, a patriotic but vain French soldier who fought for Napoleon but never got it quite right. The mysteries of Agatha Christie, another English author, are so wellwritten that you forget that most of them appeared between the nineteentwenties and the swinging sixties. Christie gives you the choice of two detectives, Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian, and Miss Marple, the soft, fuzzy resident of St. Mary Mead who can winkle out a murderer using her vast experience of simple village life. Many of these adventures have been adapted

Driving and Aging

riving is a critical issue for seniors. Not only are many older drivers at a higher risk for road accidents, people over 65 are more likely to be seriously hurt in a vehicle accident. Many caregivers are concerned about their older loved one taking the wheel but have a difficult time approaching this sensitive subject. Many seniors continue to be good, safe drivers as they age, but there are normal changes that can affect driving skills. As joints get stiff, muscles weaken and reflexes are slowed it is more difficult to turn your head to look back, steer quickly or safely hit the brakes. Eyesight and vision changes also can affect safe driving. Medical conditions such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, arthritis and strokes may also affect driving as well as the medications taken to combat these and other illnesses. Being able to drive is more than just getting where you want to go. It is a symbol of freedom, independence and self-sufficiency. But there may be a time when driving is no longer safe. How does one go about taking this privilege away from the person they love? It is important to know the warning signs of unsafe driving. (Look at the driving behaviors over a period of time, not just one trip.) • Abrupt lane changes, braking or

accelerating • Trouble navigating turns • Drifts into other lanes • Confusion at exits • Near misses • Confusing brake and gas pedals • Delayed responses to unexpected situations • Failure to observe traffic signs • Increased agitation or irritation while driving • Driving at inappropriate speed • Fails to pay attention to signs, signals or pedestrians If you notice any of these warning signs it is time to initiate change. Start by scheduling a driving evaluation through the local DMV and/or refresher driving lessons. Try finding ways to reduce the amount of driving by ordering things through the mail, using public transportation or finding others to give rides when able. Having friends and family members stop by on a regular basis to offer help with errands, etc. is another good approach. When it is clear that driving is no longer safe at all, start slowly and respectfully in persuading the person to give up his/her keys. Talk about safety – theirs and others on the road. Talk about options for getting around (public transportation, friends, family, taxi) - hopefully some of these are already in place. Emphasize the cost

savings associated with giving up a car: gas, insurance, repairs, fees, etc. The money saved can be used to pay for taxis or other transportation services. Use the confirmation of family, friends and physician to back up your concern for the person’s safety. Plan to visit the person weekly at a designated time to assist with things like shopping and appointments. Also be sure that transportation is available to meet their social needs as well. If the person refuses to quit driving, it may be necessary to take away the car keys, disable the car or remove it from their residence. A physician can write a prescription stating “no driving” and/or

a local police officer could explain the importance of safe driving and the legal implications of unsafe driving. Do not jeopardize the safety of your loved one or others by ignoring the issue of unsafe driving. Additional resources on this subject are available through AARP, the Alzheimer’s Association and the Rock County Council on Aging at 754-5472 or the Rock County Aging and Disability Resource Center at 741-3600.

Find Your Summer Escape

– a great park or maybe even an ice cream stand!

uly marks the middle of summer in Wisconsin. Like me, you’re probably wondering where the time has gone. If you are a caregiver, you’ve been busy juggling many different tasks – work, family, relationships, finances, caring for your loved one, and so much more. If you haven’t had time to relax and enjoy all that summer has to offer, don’t worry! There are many summertime activities that are both relaxing and easy to fit into a busy schedule.

• Take a walk – a short walk

around the block or through your neighborhood will be refreshing and provides a great opportunity for some exercise.

• Start a garden – not only

is planting and tending a garden relaxing, it can be incredibly rewarding and enjoyable to watch the plants grow. If you don’t have a yard or don’t want to bend down to the ground, consider a few container gardens that can be placed on a bench or table, making them easier to reach.

• Try bird watching – an

activity that can be done from your front porch, your back yard, or in a park, bird watching is an easy way to connect with nature. To make this activity more fun, consider

purchasing a pair of binoculars or a reference book about birds and placing a birdfeeder in your yard.

• Visit a local farmer’s market – to enjoy fresh produce,

unique flowers and novelty items, a farmer’s market is the place to go! Offered throughout the summer and into the fall, these markets provide locally grown fresh produce at reasonable prices…and, it’s fun to see the wide variety of items available!

• Plan a picnic – whether on

your porch, in your back yard, or in a park, a picnic can be a refreshing change from dining inside, and may even lead to fun outdoor activities after the meal is over.

• Take your favorite activity outside – rather than

reading your book inside, take it out to your porch or a shady spot in the yard! In addition, you could also listen to a ball game or your favorite radio station while enjoying the fresh air and sipping a cold iced tea.

• Enjoy an outdoor concert – many communities or

even businesses host outdoor concerts during the summer at a local park or gathering place. These concerts pair balmy summer evenings with good music for a night of relaxation and entertainment.

• Take a drive – with or without a planned destination, a car ride with the windows rolled down can be a nice way to enjoy the sights and sounds of summer. You never know what you’ll find along the way

You are NOT alone.

• Plan a day trip – consider treating yourself to a day away. Visit a botanical garden, relax on a boat cruise, go fishing alone or with friends, take a trip to the local zoo, or set a day aside for an activity you enjoyed doing before your schedule became so busy. Ask a family member or a friend to stay with your loved one, if needed, so you can take a well-deserved break. As you know, caregiving is a task that can be mentally, physically and emotionally challenging. To provide the best care for your loved one, it’s imperative that you take care of yourself. This includes taking a break to relax and recharge your batteries. Spending time outside taking in the warm air and bright sunshine will help you feel refreshed, which in turn will help you be the best caregiver possible. For more information on balancing the responsibilities of caregiving, please contact the Rock County Council on Aging, Family Caregiver Support Program at 608-758-8455.

Five Reasons to Get Out to the Farmers Market

t has been a long winter, and honestly an even longer spring as we waited for warm weather. At long last the beautiful Wisconsin summer is here, which means it is time to visit the local farmers markets. The farmers markets are a fun, economical way to eat healthy, enjoy the beautiful seasons and participate in the community. If that isn’t enough to get your foot out the door, consider the following reasons for visiting your local market: 1. Support our local farmers: What better way to support each other than to make the decision to buy as much as possible from local growers. It is a win-win situation; buying local produce supports farmers and you get the freshest possible produce. What a wonderful feeling to work together!

with the amount time you are in the sun, 10-15 minutes can help your body produce Vitamin D which has multiple health benefits including bone and muscle strength that can help prevent falls. 5. Try new foods and improve your health by eating more fruits and vegetables: Seeing all of the beautiful colors, shapes, and varieties of fruits and vegetables at the farmers market can be very inspirational to try a new recipe or simply add a different ingredient to an old favorite. There is no question that fruits and vegetables are essential to our health, and information continues to emerge on the importance of having bright, rich colors in our diet. So let your inner curiosity take over for a little while and try new, colorful foods!

2. Exercise and socialization: For the most part, Wisconsin’s spring, summer, and fall seasons are pretty accommodating for getting out for a walk, bike ride or picnic. What better way to spend a day than to make plans with a spouse, family member or friend to meet at the market, walk around taking in everything the farmers have to offer, and then enjoy a picnic with your fresh produce at a local park! Remember to bring water, sunscreen and maybe a sunhat.

“Where life i s added to years…”

3. Fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables: For anyone that has stood at the refrigerator starring mindlessly wondering what to eat, the farmer’s market is a perfect solution. Plan your meals around what is available at the market, and often, the seasonal produce is going to be less expensive. The quality and ripeness of the produce makes the trip worthwhile as well; with less travel and shipping, the produce is able to ripen before being picked, providing a higher quality product.

4. Fresh air and sunlight: Getting outside and moving around after a long winter does great things for your health and mood. The fresh air and walking around the market will recharge your battery and you may also find yourself sleeping better at night. Although you need to be careful

Preventing Heat Stroke in Dogs and Cats

eat stroke is a major concern for pet owners. Humans and animals respond differently when they get too hot. Humans are able to sweat to cool themselves; dogs and cats cannot sweat and must rely on panting to make themselves more comfortable. Panting isn’t a very efficient method of cooling off when it gets very hot and/or humid, however, and as a result, dogs and cats can overheat. With dogs this is especially true if they are overweight, have a thick coat, have heart or Heat stroke symptoms lung problems, or have a short muzzle.

Heat stroke symptoms If your companion animal is overheating, s/he will usually appear sluggish and may not respond to you. His or her tongue and gums may be bright red and very dry, and s/he may be vomiting or having diarrhea. He or she may also have an unusual breathing pattern, panting very hard, or have a high heart rate. Heat stroke in animals is very serious and can be life-threatening. If your animal has been exposed to elevated temperatures and exhibits any of these signs, seek emergency

veterinary help immediately.

Heat stroke's deadly affects

Animals that overheat can develop kidney problems, bleeding disorders, and brain damage very rapidly, sometimes within a few minutes. As a result, an animal can go into a coma and die. On the way to the veterinarian, cool your animal down with wet towels, by spritzing him/her with cool water, or by providing ice chips for him/her to chew if s/he is conscious. (Note: these measures are not substitutes for medical treatment.)

Heat stroke prevention

Heat stroke is preventable. When the weather is warm, your companion animals must have access to plenty of water and should not be left outside for long periods. If you must leave your animal outside, make sure that s/he has a cool, shady area in which to rest. Additionally, if you exercise your animal, do it in the early morning or late evening – not in the middle of the day when temperatures are at their peak. And NEVER leave your animal in a car, even if you leave the windows down. Your furry friend

could die of heat stroke in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. Remember the factors that increase an animal’s risk of developing heat stroke: water deprivation, excessive humidity, obesity, excessive exercise, cardiovascular disease, and lack of acclimatization to the temperature. Don’t forget, your companion animal relies on YOU, so take good care of him/her and enjoy your summer together! Article from Regional Emergency Animal Care Hospital and Asheville Veterinary Specialists

How Can I Reduce Exposure to Excessive Heat?

The best defense against excessive heat is prevention. Airconditioning is one of the best protective factors against heat-related illness and death. Even a few hours a day in air conditioning can greatly reduce the risk. Electric fans may provide comfort, but when temperatures are in the high 90s fans do not prevent heat-related illness. During excessive heat events, the following prevention strategies can save lives: • Visit air-conditioned buildings in your community if your home is not air-conditioned. These may include: senior centers, movie theaters, libraries, shopping malls, or designated “cooling centers.” • Take a cool shower or bath. • Drink lots of fluids. Don’t wait until you are thirsty to drink. If a doctor limits your fluid intake, make sure to ask how much to drink when it’s hot. Avoid beverages containing caffeine,

Senior Review |‌ 10

alcohol, or large amounts of sugar. These drinks cause dehydration. • Ask your doctor or other health care provider if the medications you take could increase your susceptibility to heat-related illness. • Wear lightweight, lightcolored, and loose-fitting clothing. • Visit at-risk individuals at least twice a day. Watch for signs of heat-related illness such as hot, dry skin, confusion, hallucinations, and aggression. • Call 9-1-1 if medical attention is needed. During an average summer, approximately 1,500 people die from excessive heat events in the U.S.1 A single heat wave in Chicago killed more than 700 people in 1995. In Europe, a record heat wave claimed an estimated 35,000 lives in 2003. In both cases, most of the victims were 65 or older. Information from: US EPA, Publication Number: EPA 100-F-07-025

It’s Senior Farmers’ Market Voucher Time Again! What is the Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)?

Eligible seniors receive vouchers worth $25 per household to purchase locally grown produce at approved farmers’ markets. The purpose of the program is to: • Provide fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs from farmers’ markets and roadside stands to low income seniors, and • Increase the consumption of agricultural commodities by expanding or aiding in the expansion of farmers’ markets and roadside stands.

Who is Eligible?

Rock County residents age 60 or older (Native Americans age 55 or older) with a monthly household income that does not exceed $1,800 for one person or $2,426 for two people. Each eligible household may receive vouchers only once in 2014.

How Do I Get These Vouchers?

Vouchers will be distributed at seven locations in Rock County.

The number of vouchers available is limited and will be distributed on a first come, first served basis.

How Do I Get Vouchers If I Can’t Come to a Distribution Site?

There are two options: 1) If you are unable to get to a distribution site and would like someone else to pick up your vouchers, you must call Rock County COA Nutrition Program (7575474) at least one week in advance and request a Proxy Authorization Form. This is the only acceptable document that will permit someone else to receive vouchers on behalf of an eligible senior. The form must be signed by the recipient of the vouchers and brought by the authorized representative to the distribution site. There is a strict limit of 4 proxy forms per representative. 2) Beginning July 15, any remaining vouchers will be distributed on a first come first served basis at the Council on Aging office and by the Rock County Benefit Specialists.
