Summer for many of us means vacation and travel – sounds relaxing and
stress-free! Indeed, research has shown that travel can boost our sense of wellness
and reduce the stress felt by being overworked and over-scheduled. However, for
many of us travel can actually induce stress. Pre-travel issues such as financial
concerns, packing and developing the perfect itinerary are common stressors.
While on the trip, stressors may arise such as traffic or flight delays, weather
problems or conflicts with travel companions.
There are many things we can do to reduce our vacation stress.
Plan as much as you can, as far ahead of the trip as possible. This allows you time
to develop a realistic budget and have time to research your options. Discuss
what each person going on the trip wants from their vacation time and work to
fit in a little something for everyone; this will also allow you to share the planning
work. It's okay to daydream about the perfect trip but adjust your
expectations to avoid disappointment by the inevitable bump in the road. Stay
flexible while on the trip and don't let any negatives draw away from all of the
positive experiences you're having. Happy Vacation!

Brushing Violets
In 1997 the New Jersey State Senate and General Assembly passed a series of
laws that the governor approved. These laws establishing a venison donation
program process, along with the Food Bank Good Samaritan act, helped pave
the way for the Hunters Helping the Hungry Program. The United Bow Hunters
of New Jersey (UBNJ) provided much needed support for the above measures.
A year later a few hunters organized Hunters Helping the Hungry, Inc. HHH
is a non-profit 501-(c)3 organization with the help of the State Federation of
Sportsmen Clubs, and support from the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife.
HHH raises funds and coordinates efforts by butchers, hunters and
food banks throughout NJ. We're always looking for ideas, partnerships and
volunteers to help in many ways. Funds from HHH only pay for venison donated
by hunters. HHH does not pay for any municipal depredation hunts or farmer
depredation hunts. Many farmers and corporations do support HHH through
generous donations or allowing hunters to hunt their property or requiring
hunters who hunt their property to donate deer through this program. To find
out how you can help, visit: www.huntershelpingthehungry.org.
