Local man supports hospital By Janice Becher A new takeout establishment opened on the main street of Bel- grave on May 10. Owned and operated by Debbie Reid, Sips & Nibbles offers a wide selection of her home-baked pies, tarts, biscuits and cookies as well as the mainstays for takeout; burg- ers, fries, fish and ice cream. Debbie, 35, along with her hus- band and son Mike, moved to the area, from Harriston, in the hopes of establishing a business. When the old general store became avail- able, they began renovations to cre- ate the small takeout restaurant Along with her products which are available daily, special orders can be placed for special gather- ings. Debbie said she is "open to sug- gestions" for new products. If you make the request she will do her best to supply your needs, she says. Sips & Nibbles is located in the old general store, which was oper- ated for several years by the McEwen family. A Seaforth man will be running, walking, snowshoeing or doing one of 52 different activities over the next year and a half to raise money for the Seaforth Community Hospital. "Our health care system is feeling a financial pinch and we should do anything we can to preserve it," said Tim Cumming, who announced he would kick off his Mini Marathon on June 1 to coincide with Fitness Week. Cumming's schedule of events will include a polar bear dip in January of 1994 as well as fasting for 30 hours, staying awake for 30 hours and hiking 25 km of the Avon Trail. Other events in the Mini Marathon will include bicycling, tennis, basketball, curling, swimming, bowling, tennis, canoeing, cross-country skiing and creative writing (he will write a 20- page short story in one sitting). He will also have a talk-a- thon, reciting two straight hours of famous speeches. He hopes to complete about three events a month for a total of 52 weeks...the equivalent of a year's worth of events. Health care dollars are becoming tighter and tighter and the people of the Seaforth area will need to continue their strong support of the hospital to maintain its excellence, said Cumming. "The other day I saw a local man whose face was bloodied, walk straight up to the hospital...the staff at the hospital knew who he was and was able to take care of him right away," he said. "It would be a real shame if he had to wait to go to another hospital farther away". The fundraising event will raise money through donations by members of the community. On the first day the event was announced there were more than $300 in pledges. Cumming expects to raise $1,000 during the event but hopes for more. "The money is only a small fraction of what it takes to run a top-notch hospital like the one in Seaforth," he said. "If I can even create a little awareness of the hospital's importance the event will be a success." The theme of the Mini Marathon is 'a local hospital is a precious thing.' Rationalization of health care to make it more efficient is a necessary process, said Cumming, but he said he sees an important place for the community hospital. The 27-year-old Seaforth resident is editor of The Huron Expositor, the newspaper serving Seaforth and area. He is a native of Stratford. To support the mini marathon people can send a cheque to the Seaforth Community Hospital marked 'mini marathon.' Donations of more than $5 are eligible for an income tax receipt.
