E XTREME
As the state’s temperatures
break into the triple digits by
this weekend, health officials
are recommending Oregonians
take steps to prevent heat-relat-
ed illnesses that can lead to
heat exhaustion and heat
stroke.
“Summers in Oregon are
great and people want to be
outdoors, but temperatures at
or above 100 degrees can be
dangerous,”
says
Bruce
Gutelius, M.D., M.P.H., deputy
state epidemiologist at the
Public Health Division. “Heat
exhaustion and heat stroke are
real problems that can lead to
death, so people need to take
precautions to protect their
health.”
According to the National
Weather Service, the hottest
weather of the year throughout
Oregon so far is expected to
continue through the weekend
and into next week. The hottest
day in the Willamette Valley
will be today, when tempera-

scholarship
apps due
Tuesday
Are you a parent of a stu-
dent who needs money to fin-
ish their degree? Are you a
student who had to go back to
work to continue college or
trade school? Are you some-
one who never went to col-
lege but has been thinking of
furthering your education
now?
Act now; we have scholar-
ship money to give to quali-
fied applicants.
Western Lane Community
Foundation has announced
five new $1,000 post- sec-
ondary school scholarships.
These scholarships are
designed for students who
use permanent home address-
es within west Lane County
and have already been attend-
ing college, trade school or
who want to enter higher
education for the first time.
Applicants must already
hold a diploma from high
school, including home
school, or achieved their
GED.
Application deadline for
scholarships is Tuesday.
Scholarships are available
for traditional four-year uni-
versities, colleges, communi-
ty colleges and approved
trade schools.
While academic achieve-
ment is one criteria used in
determining recipients, other
qualifying
characteristics
include financial need, out-
side activities, work history
and volunteerism to name a
few.
Eligible students may
apply for these scholarships
June 1 through June 30; the
scholarship committee will
select awardees no later than
July 15 of each year.
Applications are available
online at www.wlcfonline
.org or at the WLCF office,
1525 W. 12th St., Suite 18.
Completed applications
with all appropriate inclu-
sions must be received or
post marked no later than
June 30, 2015.
tures will reach 100 degrees in
lower elevations and get above
90 in higher-elevation areas.
Eastern Oregon tempera-
tures will be between 100 and
110 degrees into next week.
The Oregon Public Health
Division offers the following
tips for staying safe and
healthy during extreme heat
conditions:
1. Stay cool:
• Stay in air-conditioned
places when temperatures are
high, if possible.
• Limit exposure to the sun
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. when
ultraviolet (UV) rays are
strongest. Try to schedule
activities in the morning and
evening.
• Open windows to allow
fresh air to circulate, especially
during morning and evening
hours, and close shades on
west-facing windows during
the afternoon hours.
• Use portable electric fans
to exhaust hot air from rooms
or draw in cooler air.
• Wear loose-fitting clothing
to keep cool and protect your
skin from the sun.
• Use cool compresses, mist-
ing, and cool showers and
baths.
• Avoid hot foods and heavy
meals; they add heat to the
body.
• Never leave infants or chil-
dren in a parked car. Nor
should pets be left in parked
cars — they, too, can suffer
heat-related illness.
• Dress infants and children
in loose, lightweight, light-col-
ored clothing.
• Use sunscreen with at least
SPF 15 when going outside.
2. Stay hydrated:
• Regardless of your level of
activity, drink plenty of fluids,
even if you are not thirsty and
especially when working out-
side.
• Avoid alcohol or liquids
containing large amounts of
sugar.

Social Event!
People with a chronic med-
ical condition such as heart dis-
ease, high blood pressure, dia-
betes, cancer, or kidney disease
may be less likely to sense and
respond to changes in tempera-
ture. Also, they may be taking
medications that can worsen
the impact of extreme heat.
People in this category
should be closely monitored to
make sure they’re drinking
enough water, have access to
air conditioning and know how
to keep cool.
Those who exercise or work
outdoors in extreme heat are
more likely to become dehy-
drated and get heat-related ill-
ness and should pay particular
attention to staying as cool and
hydrated as possible.

Division Extreme Heat page at
