Eating Healthy Tips for
the Holidays
Here are some tips for eating a
little healthier during the holidays:
Eat a healthy, small meal before a party. In other words, do
not go hungry to a party if you are
trying to lose weight.
If you know you are going to
treat yourself later, have a good
breakfast.
Don’t rush to eat. Socialize and
settle into the festivities before
you eat.
Drink a glass of water when
you arrive and in between alcoholic beverages. This will help
you stay hydrated and help you to
resist the urge to over imbibe.
Try not to socialize near the
buffet table, this will minimize
unconscious nibbling.
Just as important is to keep
moving; exercise will help to burn
calories and helps to lower stress.
The Holidays are about enjoying
what we have, which is our family and friends.

Foundation's Third Annual
Fundraiser Helps Library
By Joan Vedder
The Wilsonville Public Library
Foundation held it's third annual
"Evening of Imagination" invitational fund raising dinner on
Saturday, October 19. One hundred and twenty guests were in attendance for a fun-filled evening
with Scott Anderson volunteering as the master of ceremonies.
Scott is a magician who wowed
attendees. Dinner guests were
also entertained by a great little
jazz group called Calamity Jazz.
Thanks to the generosity of
over 40 local businesses, a Silent Auction was a huge part of
our evening. There was a wonderful cornucopia of items to bid
on.
Hilly Alexander, board
president, gave a short welcoming speech and introduced guest
speaker Kimberly Howard from
the Oregon Cultural Trust (OCT).
Ms. Howard explained how a donation to both the Library and the
OCT can benefit the Foundation
even further.
