WHERE THE TRADITION BEGINS...
Berlin has long enjoyed a strong wrestling program at the High School and Middle School levels. The Berlin Parks and Recreation Department sponsored the Berlin Youth Wrestling until 2004-05. The club as of the 2005-2006 season became a full member of USA Wrestling Connecticut. Currently we have 56 registered for the 2009-10 season. Currently we have wrestlers come from Berlin, New Britain and Newington. We have also had members from Rocky Hill in the past.
We practice Monday and Tuesday evenings at the Old Knights of Columbus Hall. Our matches are usually scheduled for Friday evenings. If you are interested in arranging a match contact Coach Moss via e-mail. Dreams by Van Halen

A Weight-Controlled Thanksgiving
By Judi Sheppard Missett The annual routine is always the same. Watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, stuff yourself full of turkey and gravy, indulge in a slice of fresh-baked pie, and then lounge on the couch for a full-stomach induced slumber. Round out the day with a couple of football games (viewing, not playing), and your Thanksgiving is complete. For the health-conscious among us it may seem impossible to maintain a weight-controlled holiday without putting a damper on the festive occasion. After all, who wants to eat brussel sprouts in place of mashed potatoes and gravy? The problem is that most of us gain approximately one pound every holiday season, according to the National Institute of Health. And while one pound may not ring ominous at first glance, that pound stays with us, and is accompanied by another pound of weight gain every subsequent year. Add up dozens of holiday weight-gaining seasons over the years, and it's a recipe for an expanding waistline. It's not impossible to ward off the weight during this holiday season, however. Here are some tips for keeping the pounds off this Thanksgiving. Set Reasonable Goals Don't attempt to lose five pounds during the week of Thanksgiving. Instead, set a realistic goal such as maintaining your current weight. Play Favorites You're under no obligation to eat a portion of everything on the table. Instead, choose your favorite three or four dishes, and help yourself to a reasonable serving size of those items. Find Time for Exercise Take an hour of the day and devote it to fitness. Propose a family Turkey Trot after the main course and before polishing off a piece of pumpkin pie. Set Limits Before you begin eating, set a limit for your alcohol intake. Don't refill your glass until you finish what's already in it. Try drinking water or a non-alcoholic beverage in between each alcoholic drink. Eat Breakfast Don't save up your calories for one big meal late in the day. You'll just end up downing excess calories to satisfy your grumbling stomach. Eat a healthy breakfast and a midday snack, so that you're not tempted to chow-down on three servings of stuffing late in the day. Make Substitutions Try fat-free milk instead of whole milk in your pumpkin pie and mashed potatoes. Substitute whole-wheat dinner rolls for biscuits. And serve wine spritzer in place of wine. Trim the Fat Chill your gravy overnight then skim off the top layer of hardened fat before serving.Make a few small changes this Thanksgiving. You'll find that your family can enjoy the holiday just as much, without gaining the excess pounds. Judi Sheppard Missett, who turned her love of jazz dance into a worldwide dance exercise phenomenon, founded the Jazzercise dance fitness program in 1969.
