Fiesta America 4-H dancers to perform at Labor Day fest
Immediately after the
Labor Day parade, Fiesta
America 4-H Dance Club
will perform in Jubilee Park.
Fiesta America 4-H
Dance Club currently serves
more than 50 students, with
more interest every day from
others.
They have performed at
the Roseburg Spring Fair, the
Mother’s Day PowWow, 4-H
Talent Show, Walk on the
Rogue, many area schools,
Boatnik Parade, Josephine
County Fair, Jackson County
Fair, I.V. Lions Labor Day
Festival, and Oregon State
Fair in August.
Said the club, “Learning
the dances and making the
costumes enriches the lives of
our participants by preserving
the cultures of our great melt-
ing pot, America.
“These kids have prac-
ticed all year to learn new
dances and are excited about
performing once again at the
Festival,” said Tammy Pre-
ciado, 4-H coordinator for the
group.
“The 4-H organization,”
she said, “encourages leader-
ship training, citizenship
skills and life skills in all ac-
tivities, providing kids with a
sense of belonging, accom-
plishment, independence and
generosity.

Chateau guitar series continues with Latin rhythms
By LINDA
COREY-WOODWARD
For IVN
Beautiful acoustic guitar
music again will resonate in
the spacious lobby of the Ore-
gon Caves Chateau on Friday
and Saturday, Sept. 11 and 12.
Portland resident Allen
Matthews plans a lively after-
dinner guitar program includ-
ing South American-flavored
music. Expect to be capti-
vated by the exquisite, haunt-
ing classical music of Hector
Villa-Lobos, and lively Bra-
zilian rhythms.
“I always have a great
time at the Chateau,” said
Matthews. “It has a wonder-
ful atmosphere. Everyone
should visit it for the history
and the beauty of the place. I
look forward to playing there
again.”
The concert is free to
Chateau guests. The public is
urged to reserve a room or
dinner table early for this
popular concert series. Phone
592-3400 or 592-4440 to
make reservations or obtain
further information.
Matthews adds spice to
his performances with some
Cuban music and his own
compositions. Listeners may
envision dancers swirling
around the room as he blends
irresistible Latin music with
other engaging melodies.
Matthews is a classical
guitarist, performer, teacher,
percussionist, clinician and
composer. His fascination
with music and cultures of the
world led him to live, absorb
music, and perform in Indo-
nesia, Central America, South
America, Mexico and Can-
ada. He also has performed
extensively throughout the
United States. Wherever he
performs, he draws rave re-
views for his lively and multi-
cultural guitar music flavors.
He recently performed
with a Brazilian musician and
others at Mt. Hood Commu-
nity College, where the blend
of Latin-inspired music and
classical was described as
stellar by reviewers.
Matthews mastered nu-
merous guitar techniques and
styles, including classical,
Baroque, Flamenco, and Bra-
zilian. He holds a degree in
guitar performance, and con-
tinues to attend master classes
with many of the world’s best
guitarists. He is on the faculty
at Lewis and Clark College
and Oregon Episcopal School
in Portland.
Concert-goers may look
forward to an evening of rare
musical pleasures during this
fourth program in the Clas-
sics at the Chateau musical
series, organized by Sue Wil-
liams, a board member for
Illinois Valley Community
Development Organization.
Williams commented,
“Allen was here with the
Scott Kritzer concert last Oc-
tober. His playing and rapport
with the audience was an
instant success. I’m very
pleased the Chateau is host-
ing this marvelous artist.”

children are safely restrained
-- every time,” said IVFD
Fire Marshal Jerry Schaeffer.
“We are urging everyone to
get their child safety seats
inspected. When it comes to
the safety of a child, there is
no room for mistakes.”
According to IVFD, mo-
tor vehicle crashes are the
leading cause of death for
children ages 3 to 6, and 8 to
14. During 2007, approxi-
mately 6,532 passenger vehi-
cle occupants 14 and younger
were involved in fatal
crashes.
Schaeffer said that for
maximum child passenger
safety, parents and care-
givers should refer to the fol-
lowing 4 Steps for Kids
guidelines for determining
which restraint system is best
suited to protect children
based on age and size.
For the best possible pro-
tection, keep infants in the
back seat, in rear-facing child
safety seats, as long as possi-
ble up to the height or weight
limit of the particular seat. At
a minimum, keep infants
rear-facing until at least age 1
and at least 20 pounds.
When children outgrow
their rear-facing seats, they
should ride in forward-facing
child safety seats, in the back
seat, until they reach the up-
per weight or height limit of
the particular seat.
Once children outgrow
their forward-facing seats,
they should ride in booster
seats in the back seat, until
the vehicle seat belts fit prop-
erly.
Seat belts fit properly
when the lap belt lays across
the upper thighs and the
shoulder belt fits across the
chest, typically at age 8, or
when children reach 4 feet, 9
inches in height.
All children younger
than 13 should ride in the
back seat.
