The Citizen, 2001-01-31, Page 3On Monday evening, Jan. 21 there
were five tables in action for the
weekly euchre party. The high lady
for the evening was Ruth Shiell and
Jack Blake was the high man. Jean
Plaetzer and Al Donaldson earned
the most lone hands, while Kay
Konarski and Norm Turnbull had the
low scores for the night. Weekly
euchre parties are held in Bainton's
Art Gallery every Monday evening
beginning at 8 p.m.
Considering the fact that today
marks the last day in January, I can
not turn down the opportunity to
analyze it. Normally January is a
long stormy month with the excep-
tion of this winter. In late November
and early December we received an
enormous amount of snow in a mat-
ter •of three weeks. Years ago this
was considered to be typical and
everyone was prepared for the worst.
This year though, January did not
seem to be that bad after all.
This Friday marks Groundhog
Day and Wiarton will be hosting
their annual weekend with the new
Wiarton Willie predicting what kind
of weather is in the future for us.
Allegedly, if the groundhog sees his
shadow on this day it means he will
return underground again for six
more weeks of hibernation. If he
does not see his shadow then winter
will remain for 42 days. This is
clearly similar to the saying: "Six of
one and half a dozen of the other!"
Only time will tell.

Bradley Bowden, a Grade 11 stu-
dents and talented athlete, has been
a member of Variety Village for the

he is a shining example of what can
be accomplished through commit-
ment and determination.
Variety Village. 'assists thousands
of special needs kids reach their full
potential by providing a ast array
of vital programs and services.
Variety Village and CASH for
KIDS (through GIFT), are proud to
congratulate Bowden on his
achievements.
Simply by using CASH for KIDS
coupons, shoppers can benefit local
schools, hospitals and community
organizations and children like
Bowden. Blyth charities can be part
of the program by visiting their gro-
cery store manager and applying for
funding.
Every registered charity whose
mission is to help physically, intel-
lectually and emotionally chal-
lenged children is eligible.
This is the first year in which
CASH for KIDS, is seeking out
Blyth children's charities.
CASH for KIDS raised over $1.3
million province-wide in 2000. This
money was given to dozens of chil-
dren's charities across Ontario.
CASH for KIDS is run by the
Grocery Industry Foundation ...
Together (GIFT). GIFT is a fully
partnership between Ontario gro-
cery retailers and distributors, their
manufacturer/supplier community
and member of the Ontario Food
Brokers Association.
Bruce West, GIFT chair explains,
"We in the grocery industry are
proud to support Children's
Charities across Ontario. Last year,
we provided over $1.3 million in
donations ranging from The
Children's Hospital of Eastern
Ontario, to Variety Village in
Scarborough, the Huronia
Centennial Elementary School in
Elmvale to the Special Friends Club
in Hillsburgh."
CASH for KIDS is the biggest in-
store coupon campaign in Canada
involving over 50 national brands,
2,000 grocery stores and 40 million
coupons.
The public can help KIDS by pur-
chasing everyday items using the
in-store couporis and receive sav-
ings on their purchases. In turn, the
manufacturers of the items donated
15 per cent from every coupon
redeemed to CASH for KIDS.
This money is then provided to
eligible children's charities across
Ontario.
During the month of February,
use a CASH for KIDS coupon (the
coupon with the red heart) and you
will be supporting physically, intel-
lectually and emotionally chal-
lenged children in Blyth and
area.
