| Summer has flown by -- who knew it would wrap up so fast? A lot of people have been out being tourists in their own cities, taking out-of-town visitors out, while others have been hard at work training for their next big event. August 26th, 2007 marks the 25th Anniversary of Ironman Canada; people from around the world and locally will be decending into Penticton for this amazing event to participate in, volunteer in, and watch the event. Good luck to all our patients who will be participating! |
| Ironman Canada :: 25th Anniversary |
|
 This year, over 3000 participants will be attending the 25th Anniversary of Ironman Canada. Due to the anniversary year, a larger amount of participants than usual have signed on to take on this feat. Dr. McKay, after completing his first Ironman in 2006, has decided to participate a second time, along other members of the Steveston Run Club, many of whom will be doing this distance for the first time.

backpack safety
There are currently a lot of guidelines as to proper usage of backpacks for children but it is also important to explain why backpacks should not be too heavy. As a child grows, his/her skeleton has yet to become mature, meaning that growth is still occurring. It is important to try to grow in a position where the spine is not comprimised.
