A few of the Philippine delegation, after signing a liability waiver (until the carousel has been certifi ed, all riders must sign a lia- bility waiver) rode on the carousel — some for their fi rst-ever carousel experi- ence. “It was a very happy group of people who had a short period of fellowship and learned of a new proj- ect they might take back to their own country,” said Williams. “Something to bring happiness and good- will to their community — the love of a carousel.” Williams added that there are approximately 36,000 Rotary clubs in over 200 countries around the world, all with the mot- to of “Service Above Self.” “Rotarians take this very seriously,” said Williams, who noted the Rotary Friendship Exchange and the organization’s dedica- tion to the eradication of polio around the world as just two examples of Ro- tary International’s focus on service to the communi- ties they serve and to bring peace and harmony to the world.

The day before the Rota- ry dedication, three mem- bers of the former Coquille Carousel Board — Linda Short, Ophie Keene, and Nancy Bangergt — visited the carousel.

River Rd. • Cottage Grove HEALTH & BEAUTY | RELAXATION SPA DAY Th ere is no need to feel guilty about announcing these words: “Honey, I’m headed to the spa.” In fact, having a spa day is one of the best ways to alleviate the stress and anxiety that come with daily life. Allowing yourself the opportunity to relax – and get pampered in the process – is key to improving your overall health. THE BENEFITS Spa treatments and massage therapies foster many benefi ts for both your mental and physical health. Studies from Florida State University and George Mason University have shown that the frequency of visiting a spa may directly correlate with better quality sleep, fewer sick days, reduced absenteeism from work and fewer hospitalizations. Additionally, the heat from a hot tub, sauna or steam shower can loosen joints and soothe aches from arthritis, fi bromyalgia and other issues. Some spas even off er Pilates and yoga, which have been proven to improve fl exibility and breathing. LOW COST Local & Metro Weekday Trips Professional Caring Staff Your Regional Public Transportation Service No elgibility requirements. SKIN CARE Another reason to visit the spa oft en is to detoxify your skin from built-up waste and bacteria. Mud baths accomplish this by exfoliating and nourishing the skin through natural elements like soil, clay and water. Cleansing your skin is important in the defense against environmental toxins. Facials also release stress tension from the head and neck, which can prevent headaches. Spas use products such as lotions, scrubs and wraps to increase the physical and mental health benefi ts of your service. IMMUNE BOOST Massage therapy is eff ective because it stimulates your lymph fl ow, which in turn strengthens your body’s defense system. Massage can also draw out metabolic waste, excess water, toxins and bacteria from the muscles. All of these benefi ts can help you remain healthier and fi ght off sickness, while also reducing swelling and general soreness. Other boosts from regular massages include improved circulation and posture that can help you feel healthier and more energetic each day. 541-942-0456 southlanetransit.com SOUTH LANE COUNTY FIRE & RESCUE The Only Emergency Medical Transport Service in South Lane County Call 541-942-4493 for info.
