Ashley tried out one of the oxygen masks., (Livingston photo) Dear editor: Two weeks ago you .1011ted ,a letter to the edi- tor. that described some of the difficulties in get- • ting a 'midway to come to the Fair. In the same let- ter we asked for support from. the people 'of Lucknow and the sur- • rounding corinnumtieS to help us convince the midway thatcomingto our -town was worth while. Well, we .are proud to report that people packed the midway area Friday .night- and provided a steady stream of business for them Saturday as well.• Consequently, the owner ' of Big' Amusements has signed an agreement to provide Fair for the next two years. He has plans- to bring additional equip- ment next year including a merry-go-round, more rides for smaller thildren and a roller coaster. , •We are excited about developing this -area of the Fair and are proud to be in a community that responds to well when asked for support.

No, I don't mean -that .when.I • smile at you that it's not a genuine smile. I- mean that my smile is due to • advanced tooth technology called gap - Ping • Yes, I once had huge spaces between my teeth, but teamed that by fitting the gaps I no longer had to hide my teeth behhid my big lips. ' No, I'm not off my rocker, and rm. not doing an advertising' plug for Dr. Mowbray.,I'in attempting to find a suit- able opening for this article. One that will grab people's attention, so that they will continue on to see where 1 am going with this stilly statement. • Like a dentist, it is my job as a sup- , port worker at Whigharn and District Community Living Association, to fill the gaps 'that arise' in the' daily sched- ules of the people I work with: Although the majority o our time spent in the Lucknow area is filled with very meaningful activities, there are times • when we have nothing to do. Why? Sometimes it's a seasonal placement, sometimes a cancellation, due to weath- er, or other times it may be that we • need something suitable for a certain individual or individuals to do and don't have the one-on-one support to - maintain a placement to its fullest • , potential. Whatever the reason for the gap, it leaves us grasping to find something to do for a half hour here, or 15 minutes. there. , I've come to a cross road, where 1 have done all that I can as one person supporting five individuals. 1 have worked and reworked my schedule to try and make things run smoother an eliminate these gaps. I must"stressfally admit to the community that I need help. The government is rnot going to provide it. I need input from community mem- bers. I heed your resources on how to recruit volunteers for activities such as- • taking someone out fortoffee, out for a walk, joining a club otservice group. I need people to let me know if there's , other activities out there where we can participate - whether it be folding bul- letins, canvassing for community fundraisers, walking a dog, visiting homebound individuals, etc. Lastly. I need people to let me know if there's things we could be doing bet- ter, and more importantly how we can do things better together. Please feel free to approach me, call inc, or even drop off comments at the Sentinel. It would be greatly appreciat- ed and most surely utilized. , Laeknow Sentinel, Weduestr Septentber 25,1994 Page 5 CAVE SOMEONE A SECOND CHANCE March is Kidney Month. Please give generously.
