										Earlier 
										this week, new banners went up at Scully 
										Park. Dennis Reeves, who oversees the 
										maintenance of county properties was 
										busy putting up the signage for the 
										"CATCH" program. CATCH is a healthy 
										lifestyle program promoted by Abraham 
										Lincoln Memorial Hospital and the 
										Healthy Communities Partnership in Logan 
										County. Part of that program includes 
										the "GO," "SLOW," and "WHOA" designation 
										for the foods we eat. Examples include 
										fresh fruits and veggies as GO foods, 
										fatty foods as SLOW foods and sugary 
										soft drinks, candy and other sweets as 
										WHOA foods.
