Nobody enjoys getting a sun burn! In the short term – it can be painful and really takes the fun out of your day.

Research shows that over 50% of Canadians get their worst sunburn while watching or PROTECT participating in outdoor recreational activities. Source: National Sun Survey Highlights YOURSELF BY: Report (July 2008) • Knowing the UV Index and planning accordingly • Wearing sunglasses that protect your eyes • Seeking shade • Wearing clothing that covers your arms and legs and a broad-brimmed hat to protect your face and neck. • Applying a broad spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) on all exposed skin 20 minutes before going outdoors. Reapplying every 2 hours, especially after swimming or perspiring. 6 | Kings County Recreation Guide - Summer 2014 BOAT & WATER SAFETY For many families, summer includes activities such as boating and swimming.

  • NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report
    NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report Prepared by: Nova Scotia Teachers Union January 2006 Copyright Nova Scotia Teachers Union, 2006 1 Background There has been on-going discussion about the various venues used by NSTU Professional Associations for the annual October Conference. Some members and some associations have expressed the belief that a combination of logistics (meeting space and size, hotel accommodation, parking, etc.), tradition and member preference has effectively mandated the conference venue to be in the Metro Halifax area. Other members and associations have held that providing their conference at alternate locations around the province has provided greater flexibility and accessibility for teachers. Most of this opinion has rested on an anecdotal base and therefore could not be used to provide meaningful guidance to NSTU Professional Associations. At its meeting of January 20-22, 2005, the Provincial Executive passed the following motion: That the NSTU conduct a survey of the membership with respect to location of conferences, the rotation of association conferences on a province-wide basis and the use of satellite conference sites for large associations. A draft survey, key actions and timetable were developed and presented to the Professional Associations Coordination Committee at its meeting on November 4, 2005 for input, revision and approval. The survey was finalized and approval given for its distribution to teachers prior to December 2005. Methodology A survey instrument was developed (see Appendix B) to determine teachers’ views concerning the venue for the annual October Professional Association conferences. Specifically, this instrument sought to determine whether teachers supported distributing the conferences around the province, the preferred venues and if there was support for the concept of rotating venues.

    Reports 112 Structure of the Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy: A Preliminary Report* DONALD J. P. SWIFT Duke University, Durham, N. C. FRANK L. JAGODITS Huntec Limited, Toronto, Ont. BERNARD L. MANISTRE Lockwood Survey Corporation Limited, Toronto, Ont. NORMAN R. PATERSON Huntec Limited, Toronto, Ont. Introduction From July, 1965 to March, 1966, a joint geological-geophysical study of the Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy, was undertaken by Huntec Limited of Toronto for the Atlantic Development Board of Canada. The purpose of the project was to test the feasibility of a tidal power station in the Passage. This paper presents a portion of the study, namely the structure of the geologically critical Minas Passage area and its bearing on regional structure. The Bay of Fundy is a funnel-shaped body of water lying between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick (Fig. 1). Fundy proper is 144 kilometers long, 100 kilometers wide at the base, and averages 75 meters in depth. The northeast end bifurcates into northeast-trending Chignecto Bay, and the east-trending Minas Basin. Three distinct bodies of water are included within the latter; the Minas Basin proper; the Minas Channel, separated from the basin by the great curved peninsula of Cape Blomidon-Cape Split; and the Minas Passage, connecting the Channel and the Basin (Fig. 2). ^Manuscript received 12 January, 1968.
