The Minnesota legislature appropriated <br />an additional $1 million over the next two years to <br />the program. <br />Although WIC has been highly successful in <br />Anoka County, many potentially eligible women are <br />not currently participating in the program, according <br />to Peggy Heaver, MPH, RD, supervisor of the Anoka <br />County WIC program. Good nutrition is especially <br />important in pregnancy. Heaver noted studies show- <br />ing that a proper diet during pregnancy can mean <br />a healthier baby at birth and fewer health problems <br />as the child grows up. <br />The Anoka County WIC program is currently in- <br />volved in an outreach effort inspired by a 1986 Min- <br />nesota law, which calls for an increase of 10 percent <br />a year in the percentage of participants who are <br />pregnant. <br />More than 2,000 people in Anoka County par- <br />ticipate in the WIC program, which has been <br />operating in Minnesota since 1974. In addition to <br />pregnant women, eligible WIC participants can in- <br />clude nursing mothers, infants, and children up to <br />age five who meet criteria set by WIC. <br />Coupons are issued to paricipants and are used <br />to buy milk, cheese, eggs, juice and cereal or infant <br />formula. WIC participants also receive free nutrition <br />assessments, diet counseling and nutrition educa- <br />tion. The goal of the program is to promote the <br />development of healthy babies and small children <br />by helping families make wise food choices. <br />Heaver says a number of studies have confirmed <br />that the program has a significant impact on the <br />health of mothers and children who participate. In <br />particular, it has been found that pregnant women <br />participating in WIC have fewer premature and low <br />birth weight babies. They are also more likely to <br />begin prenatal care early in their pregnanices, and <br />are less likely to have stillbirths. Children who par- <br />ticipate in WIC tend to have better memories and <br />larger vocabularies. WIC participants and their <br />families tend to have better diets than <br />non-participants. <br />Heaver notes that WIC is an equal opportunity pro- <br />gram. Persons who believe they have been <br />discriminated against because of race, color, na- <br />tional origin, age, sex or handicap should write im- <br />mediately to the Secretary of Agriculture, <br />Washington, D.C. 20250. <br />For more information on the Anoka County WIC <br />program, call 422-7055. <br /> <br />BUSINESS SCENE <br /> <br />By: Ramsey Economic Development Commission <br />Many residents are not aware of the growth of <br />Ramsey's commercial and industrial base, nor are <br />they aware of the achievements of the business com- <br />munity. Because of this, the Economic Development <br />Commission has established a Publicity Subcommit- <br />tee for the purpose of increasing public awareness <br />of accomplishments in the business community. This <br />is the first in a series of feature articles that will report <br />on business activities. <br />ARMSTRONG KENNELS - GAME FAIR <br />Chuck and Loral!. Delaney hosted the 6th annual <br />Game Fair at their Armstrong Kennels located in <br />Ramsey.

Mr. Buckner presented Nils Sundquist, Presi- <br />dent of Mate Punch and Die, with a certificate from <br />Governor Rudy Perpich proclaiming August 14 as <br />'Nils E. Sundquist Day' in Minnesota. <br />In 1971, Sundquist moved into a 15,000 square <br />foot building at it's present location in Ramsey. <br />Three years later, the plant was expanded to 30,000 <br />square feet and again in 1978, it was expanded and <br />remodeled to it's current 60,000 square feet. Mate <br />Punch and Die, with it's subsidiaries, employs over <br />200 persons. The firm and it's subsidiaries serve <br />over 4,000 customers worldwide and specialize in <br />tooling and tape preparation systems for N/C pun. <br />ching mar.hines and rotating tool holders for NIC <br />machining centers.

Waste Management of Minnesota, <br />led by Terry Miller, helped organize Ramsey's Keep <br />America Beautiful Week projects, held April 26 - May <br />2.
