I was fortunate enough to findthis beautiful facility and communitythat gave me the opportunity to continuemy passion in fitness. I’ve always had apull towards health and wellness from ayoung age as I was a multi-sport athletein high school, and I am competitive innature. Overall, I wanted to be able toshare that passion with other people andhelp them find the best versions of themselves, either through physical, mental oremotional health. Fitness was always myoutlet.”Marten told PTT of the ongoing programs that are happening now: One-on-one, buddy, and smallgroup training Class options for group exercise:Yoga, Zumba, Bootcamps, Senior Fit,Cardio Kickboxing and more Offering frequent health incentiveprogramming such as an Annual IndoorTriathlon in the month of FebruaryShe sums up by saying there areprograms for all ages at the CommunityCenter such as Mommy and Me classesup to senior programming.Marten includes, “The sky’s the limithere and we want everyone and anyone tofeel welcome and have the opportunity tomove their body and enjoy the journey!”As many people know, joining into afitness routine can be a bit difficult andalso to stick with, so PTT asked Marten:What do you do to keep people motivated and on track? She said, “We build relationships, and those participants beginto trust us, and they start see results, theystart to feel good, they start to feel a partof something. Fitness is so much more tome then the physical activity.”In closing, when asked about thefuture, this is what Marten finished with:“Our future is bright in the fitness centeras we have amazing staff to help peoplein their fitness journey.

Iwant to help our young athletes becomestronger, to help them compete at a higher level. Give our adults and our seniorsthe ability to move and lift properly.I really enjoy watching the peoplewith the determination to keep going nomatter the consequences or outcome. Ilove meeting new people from across theMidwest. I love hearing how impressedpeople are with our facility; how muchpotential we can give the community. Ienjoy seeing our youth have a good timeon the rock-climbing wall.I think the biggest challenge is gettingmy education. I’ve always struggled witheducation, but I never let it stop me fromdoing what I love!In the future, I see our team havingphenomenal camps for all ages and alllevels of athletes. I see a big health wavegoing through our community in thefuture. I see big-time athletes helpingour younger generation gain the tools tobecome a high-quality athlete.One of my favorite quotes: “We haveto do the things we don’t want to do inorder to do the things we want to.” (LesBrowne).

I want to help trainathletes to become champions.What I enjoy the most about my jobis learning the kinesiology, bio mechanicsand nutritional aspects of fitness. Beingan athlete myself means that I have toconstantly be ready for competition, andthat can be very challenging and uncomfortable with an unhealthy diet the olderwe get. Having the proper knowledgein these fields will allow me to train forlongevity comfortably.Some of the challenges that I face aretraining specificity and learning that noteverybody trains and functions the sameway. Being in this field and working withdifferent individuals is going to broadenmy expertise.I see myself being a very successfuland well-known trainer/nutritionist inthe fitness department, and I hope to giveback to the community the knowledge Ipick up in my studies. I also hope to oneday train top athletes in any sport andhelp them achieve success.

Community members were invited to decoratean ornament with the number of yearsthat they had sober. No time frame wasrefused, so even if someone only had 24hours, it could be added. The tree wasintended to show the community thatsobriety can be celebrated and to displaythe strength of the sober community.Whether someone has chosen a life ofsobriety from the start or has overcomeaddiction, the tree of hope would takethe numbers.This year, White Bison offered a challenge. The community with the highestnumber of sober years would win a freetraining. On Dec. 29, FCP BehavioralHealth turned in its totals. I’m happyand proud to say that our communitywon with a final total of 1,467 years and6 months.

Stock food that needs no cooking orrefrigeration, and water stored in cleancontainers. Ensure that your cell phone is fullycharged. Keep an up-to-date emergency kit,including: Battery-operated devices, suchas a flashlight, weather radio, and lamps;extra batteries; first-aid kit and extramedicine; baby items; and cat litter orsand for icy walkways. Protect your family from carbonmonoxide (CO).Keep grills, camp stoves, and generators out of the house, basement andgarage. Locate generators at least 20 feetfrom the house. Leave your home immediately if the carbon monoxide detectorsounds, and call 911.Here are some precautions when youplan to travel: When planning travel, be aware ofcurrent and forecast weather conditions. Avoid traveling when the NationalWeather Service has issued advisories. If you must travel, inform a friendor relative of your proposed route andexpected time of arrival.Follow these safety rules if you become stranded in your vehicle: Make your vehicle visible to rescuers.Tie a brightly colored cloth to the antenna, raise the hood (if it is not snowing),and turn on the inside overhead lights(when your engine is running). Move anything you need from thetrunk into the passenger area. Stay withyour vehicle unless safety is no more than100 yards away. Keep your body warm. Wrap yourentire body, including your head, in extraclothing, blankets, or newspapers. Huddle with other people if you can. Stay awake and stay moving. Youwill be less vulnerable to cold-relatedhealth problems. As you sit, keep movingyour arms and legs to improve circulationand stay warmer. Run the motor (and heater) forabout 10 minutes per hour, opening onewindow slightly to let in air. Make sure that snow is not blockingthe exhaust pipe; this will reduce the riskof carbon monoxide poisoning.No one can stop the onset of winter;however, if you follow these suggestions,you will be ready for it when it comes.As always, if at any time you have anemergency, please reach out to Emergency Management at (715) 478-4428and we will either assist or put you intocontact with the proper department thatfits your needs.Thank you all and please stay safe!continued on pg. 5.

Cervical cancer is a disease inwhich cancer cells are found in the tissuesof the cervix, the lower part of the uterus.Cervical cancer is caused by several typesof human papilloma virus (HPV). HPVis common, but some strains are harderfor women’s bodies to fight off, whichcan cause those normal cells to turn intocancer. If the cancer goes untreated, itcan spread more deeply into the cervixand other nearby areas. Approximately 12,000 women are diagnosed withcervical cancer in the US each year andabout 4,000 women die each year in theUS from cervical cancer. Native American women have higher rates of cervicalcancer than non-Hispanic white women,and are more likely to be diagnosed inthe later stages when the chance for treatment and cure are lower.Early cervical cancer usually has nosigns or symptoms. Some steps you cantake to prevent cervical cancer include:getting regular pap tests, getting vaccinated against HPV, practicing safe sex,having fewer sexual partners, and avoiding smoking.
