RES BIG: GAME..
The Wingham- Lions are
praying for gorgeous weath-
er and a huge turnout of
riders for the fifth annual
Whipper Watson Snowarama
for Timmy later this month.
The more riders and . the
more pledgees there aro, the
better chance the Lions have
of meeting their goal: raising
$3,000 t9 help crippled child-
renaround this area..
The local Lions Club is the
Easter Seal organization for
this district and that means it
can be called upon to help
physically handicapped
children. The help can take
the form of providing wheel-
chairs or _ prosthetic ;.device's
(artificial limbs) or transpo-
tation to therapy sessions as
well ` as helping support a
summer catty for the child-
ren. e,,
This year the :club has
budgeted $3,000 for its. wor
with the children ` - it • i
currently helping'. three and
two more have applied for
assistance - and it hopes to.
raise most of the• money,
