Jubilee Organizers Seek More Trees The School District Foundation needs entries for this year’s Christmas Tree Jubilee. Over the past two years, because of the economy, the foundation has struggled to find people to buy and donate the trees for the event, said foundation executive director Chris Zimmerman. All money for the trees benefits children with disabilities in the Weber and Ogden City School Districts. Last year, the foundation was able to buy speech machines, hearing aids, iPods for children with autism, a lift machine, and more. Flu Vaccination Now Available at Ogden Clinic Ogden Clinic, a physiciano w n e d , multi-specialty group practice in northern Utah, urges the community to receive immunizations early before the peak flu season begins. Vaccinations are now available at Ogden Clinic. National and state health officials are advising Utahans to get their flu shots early this season to avoid a potentially dangerous outbreak. The flu vaccine developed for the 2010/2011 flu season will protect against an influenza A H3N2 virus, an influenza B virus, and the 2009 H1N1 virus. This is a universal, one-time vaccine recommended for the immunization of individuals older than six-months of age. Ogden Clinic is offering vaccinations at the following locations: • Harrison Boulevard Clinic - M-F 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. • Skyline Clinic- by appointment. • Canyon View Clinic – M-F 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. • Grand View Clinic – M-F 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. • Mountain View Clinic- M-F 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The cost per shot is $25. Influenza is a highly infectious and unpredictable virus. Vaccination is the first and most important step in protecting individuals from influenza infections. Other crucial measures in preventing flu include washing hands often with soap and water, covering nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, and avoiding close contact with infected individuals. People at highest risk of serious flu complications include young children, pregnant women, those with certain chronic health con- r The Hill Gang e v O $1.00 OFF Gale & Marge Armstrong Come Join Us for Thanksgiving Dinner Buffet Traditional Thanksgiving Feast Hours: 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Reservations required. $21.95 Adults ~ $16.95 Seniors ~ $14.95 Child Now Taking Holiday Party Reservations. 92-6775 508 Ogden Canyon, Ogden your purchase (12 oz. minimum) Must present in this coupon.
