The May 2011 meeting of UNAC (Up North Authors Circle) was held at the Lake-
wood Library on May 10. A small but enthusiastic group gathered due to a necessary
change of date for the meeting.
Almost the entire two hours became a revision session for Sheri Jo Passelt who is
working on a novel called Hidden Heroes. Satisfied that her characters are vividly
drawn, Sheri Jo has been struggling with perspective and verb tense so she asked
group members for help. The discussion centered on shaping plot sequence and ma-
nipulating point of view. In the process, Sheri Jo found another thing that she was
completely unaware her book contained: detail inaccuracies that members caught
when she read the excerpt aloud.
“Revision is the most difficult work that novelists, in fact all writers, face,” stated
group founder Kathleen Marsh. “But without serious content editing up front, pains-
taking follow-up text editing, and a final read-every-word proofreading, a piece of
writing is weak, inconsistent and unappealing to the reader. As a group, we are com-
mitted to helping our members produce their best work, even if it takes them a long
time and lots of polishing to perfect it.”
Sheri Jo left the meeting determined to put in the extra time and effort to get it right. She thanked group members for their many sug-
gestions and promised to incorporate the changes by July when she will share an excerpt of the “new and improved” version of her

Did you know you can help slow down your aging process by
doing mild physical activity? No matter when you start, you’ll
experience positive results on aging by feeling an increase in
energy and an improvement in your range of motion. You’ll even
recover from an injury quicker! As we age we gradually lose the
amount of muscle fibers in our body. Exercising can positively
change the size of the fibers. How much you eat can be a prob-
lem. As we age, we start to lose our capability to digest food.
We tend to eat more high carbos and high fat food items (carbs
are easier to digest, and fatty foods taste better). Watch what you
eat. Exercising helps you with stamina (to keep going and not be
so winded). Have an exercise plan and goal to improve your
strength. Walking & lifting weights helps to ward off osteoporo-
sis, high blood pressure, being overweight and prevents heart
disease. The more fit you are, the healthier you are! Make sure
you walk everyday. Make it your goal to get in 10,000 steps or 5
miles throughout the entire day. As we age, we seem to sit
longer. Use your muscles more. Get up and move around your
home. Make an effort to workout more. Make it easy and fun to
workout!

The 6th Annual Flea-Zaar (best of a flea market plus the best of a bazaar) is coming to Forest Larger Parish on Fri-
day and Saturday July 15-16! We need your donations: household items (that have no disposal fees!), large items
like boats, cars, ATV’s, mowers, snowblowers, etc. We will not be accepting any electronic items including radios,
TVs, VCRs, DVD players, computer monitors, hard drives or printers, electric typewriters, fax machines, tele-
phones, cameras, or microwaves. Due to frequently changing laws, we will not accept car seats and due to trans-
portation issues, NO PIANOS, PLEASE! If you are moving or selling a home and need help emptying out the
house, give us a call in the parish office and we will make arrangements to remove any items you wish to donate.
Your donated items are marketed to raise money to support our Parish programs while providing a service to those
shopping for quality used items at bargain prices. Through the Flea-Zaar, we fund many of our parish programs
and mission projects. We will be open for collection of donations on Thursday, July 14 at the Lakewood Presbyte-
rian Church on Highway 32, but if there is a large donation offered, we will try to arrange to pick it up before then.
Please call the Parish office Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. if you have questions about what we
are looking for and how to arrange for pickup/delivery of donations (phone 715-473-3603). Receipts are available
for those who want them for tax purposes. Should you have something of value that you don't really need/use any-
more, this is a worthwhile way to
dispose of it!
THIS YEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME. . .we will be having a special tent set up just for handcrafted items made
by the people of Forest Larger Parish! We will also be selling popcorn throughout both sale days.
As always, there will be a silent auction both days. Friday will include a Chicago Style Hot Dog Sale and Saturday
will include a bake sale and a lunch of hamburgers, brats, beverages and our famous Strawberry Shortcake.
The sale will run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday and from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.
