PROTECTING AGAINST WEST NILE (From SDHSAA):
Protecting Athletes, Coaches, Band Members, Cheerleaders
and Fans against West Nile Virus
Summer vacation is over, but the West Nile Virus season
continues. South Dakota is experiencing
our worst West Nile season since 2007. As of September 5, 2012 in South Dakota:
- 119 human cases of West Nile virus disease have been
reported to the SD Dept. of Health
- Status: Meningitis/encephalitis 35%; fever 65%; and
hospitalized 47%
- Deaths: 2
- Age: 8% of cases have been school age children
- Gender: Male 50%, female 50%
Until the West Nile Virus season is over, it is essential
precautions be taken to protect student athletes, coaches, band musicians,
cheerleaders and fans from contracting the disease especially during late
afternoon/evening practices and nighttime events. Proper use of mosquito repellents is a MUST!
Mosquito repellents containing these active ingredients
typically provide reasonably long-lasting protection:
- DEET
- Picaridin
- Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus
- IR3535
Research indicates repellent efficacy and duration of
protection vary considerably among products and among mosquito species and are
markedly affected by ambient temperature, amount of perspiration, exposure to
water, abrasive removal, and other factors.
In general, higher concentrations of active ingredient provide longer
duration of protection, regardless of the active ingredient.
Practice and playing fields should be sprayed for
mosquitoes.
For more information see the SD Dept of Health West Nile
Virus page and the Extension Disaster Education Network (EDEN) West Nile Virus
Page (see links below).
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

SANBORN CENTRAL MOBILE APP:
Sanborn Central is pleased to announce the creation of a
new app for smart phones and iPads that will make it easier to keep in touch
with events at Sanborn Central. This is not a true app in the sense that you
will be able to find it in an app store, but rather a website that has been
designed specifically for the small screens found on smart phones and iPads.
You will need to have internet access on your device to use this app.
To get started, go to www.sanbornmobile.us on your smart phone
or iPad, using whatever method you usually use to access the internet. You may
also wish to click on this link while viewing your email on your device. If you
are using an Apple device, you may have a little message pop up asking if you
want to create a shortcut on your screen. We recommend that you do so for ease
of using the app. If you don’t get a pop up message, you will probably want to
bookmark the site, then add the bookmark link to your home screen.
Here are some general instructions that may help you with
adding a link to the app on your device screen.
Apple (iOS) phones:
2. Tap the share button at the bottom of the screen (it’s
a square with an arrow over it)
3. From the options that pop up, select Add to Home Screen
4. You can then change the name of the icon to what you
want it to display, and press Add in the top right corner
Android phones:
2. Press Menu, then Add Bookmark
3. Change the name of the bookmark, if desired, and press
Add
4. Press Menu again, then select Bookmarks
