Nutritionist Betty Holloway and her assistant, Barb Andrekopoulus, discuss and demonstrate
“food synergy” while they prepare a seasonal menu for all to sample.
Food synergy is the interaction of food elements which combine to produce a total nutritional
effect greater than the sum of its parts. For example, eating broccoli and tomatoes together is
healthier than eating each of them alone—according to research that shows this combo becomes
an anti-cancer superpower. Many groupings of foods can produce wonderful flavor, but many of
those familiar—and not so familiar—combinations can produce fantastic health benefits. The key
to good health may not be just the healthy foods you eat, but how you combine them.
Betty and Barb will demonstrate a seasonal menu that
is quick, easy, tasty, wholesome, and economical! Come enjoy
this cooking demonstration with samples and recipes for all!

Coming together will set us apart.
ProHealth Care and two other leading Wisconsin health
care systems are working together to enhance cancer
care for patients in Waukesha County and surrounding
communities.
ProHealth Care and UW Health will co-manage
ProHealth Care’s new cancer center in Pewaukee. In
addition, several Aurora Health Care cancer specialists
will deliver care at the center.
The state-of-the-art cancer center nearing completion
just off Interstate 94 in Pewaukee is the centerpiece
of the new partnership. The building, which will open
August 10, will bring together at one convenient
location all of the physicians, staff, diagnostic and
treatment technology cancer patients need.
At the new cancer center, patients will benefit from
the expertise of cancer specialists from all three
health care systems. Together, they will help ensure
that cancer care will be comprehensive and easy
to navigate for patients. Multi-disciplinary case
conferences will address all aspects of a cancer
patient’s needs, reduce variation in care and improve
outcomes.
Comprehensive treatment plans will be developed for
patients and a nurse navigator will guide them through
treatment.
The new cancer center
We will focus on providing a superior patient
experience – one that recognizes the stress of a
cancer diagnosis and surrounds patients with the
support they need.
The center will feature:
• Group or private space for 28 infusion patients
• Comprehensive radiation therapy services, including
external beam radiation, Cyberknife robotic radiosurgery
and brachytherapy
• An extensive array of diagnostic tools
• Cancer rehabilitation services
• A retail store offering wigs and prostheses
• Integrative medicine services
• Space for community education events
• A café
Join us at our open house!
Saturday, July 18 from 9 a.m. to noon
Tour the cancer center and adjacent multi-specialty
clinic, meet our care teams, enjoy refreshments and
receive a free gift.

You probably know that the aroma of lavender is great for relaxing, but did you know lavender essential oil is useful for digestion? According to Health magazine, essential oils have
been used to treat anxiety, aches, and more from ancient Egypt to modern times. In this
workshop, Barbara Lemke, RN, will discuss how therapeutic-grade essential oils can enhance
health and well-being in a natural, safe, and effective manner. Learn why these oils can play
a vital role in every area of your life and how to use them without side effects. Come experience this fascinating line of natural aromatherapy essential oils. Handouts will be available.
Barb is certified as a clinical aromatherapy practitioner. Her goal is to help integrate natural
healing therapies into nursing practice. She offers classes locally to the community on the
therapeutic use of essential oils.

The introduction of the electric telegraph in 1844 combined with the
recommendations of Dr. Increase A. Lapham to create a government
weather service were the beginnings of weather forecasting. Lapham is
considered Wisconsin’s first great scientist and the father of the U.S.
Weather Service. Find out more about the history of weather reporting from storyteller and
history buff Sharon Coyle as she explains how weather was charted in days gone by. She’ll also
share some weather-related facts sure to wow your friends and family.

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Presented by Rochelle Pennington
Muskego • September 24 2:00 p.m.
The Edmund Fitzgerald sank 40 years ago this November in a severe Lake Superior storm. The
ship was bound for a steel mill near Detroit and suddenly sank a little after 7:10 p.m. without
sending a distress signal. Her crew of 29 was lost in the icy waters. Discovered in May 1976, the
wreckage sits 530 feet below on the lake floor. Although it’s one of thousands of shipwrecks
along the Great Lakes, it’s easily the most famous—memorialized in a 1976 song by Gordon
Lightfoot, “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.”
What sank the Edmund Fitzgerald that night? Did the ship succumb to the “Witch of November,”
the gale-force winds that blow across the Great Lakes in autumn? Why have more ships been
lost on the Great Lakes in November than in any other month? Did the ship’s middle
buckle, due to waves? Award-winning newspaper columnist and author Rochelle Pennington
presents various theories about one of the most well-known shipwrecks in the Great Lakes.
