Rocky in Newport RI


about this movie:
Sylvester Stallone stars as Rocky Balboa, a struggling boxer trying to make the big time. When heavyweight champion Apollo Creed visits Philadelphia, his managers want to set up an exhibition match between Creed and Balboa, touting the fight as a chance for a "nobody" to become a "somebody". The match is supposed to be easily won by Creed but someone forgot to tell Rocky, who sees this as his only shot at the big time.

Prevent Ticks
- The CDC recommends taking a shower two hours after being in nature to reduce the risk of getting Lyme disease.

- Clothing with built in tick repellent like Permethrin is best for preventing tick bites.


There are some wonderful resources available at www.tickencounter.org on ticks.

- If you happen to find a tick on yourself or your child, you can send a photo of it to URI Tick Encounter for identification.
