The local MADD Huron/Bruce Chapter services all of Huron County and the southern area of Bruce County. This will 'be the first time this national event will be hosted and held in a rural area outside the Greater Toronto Area. The local chapter will host guests from across Canada for a weekend to be held at the Oakwood Inn and Resort in Grand Bend in 2004 on April 23, 24, 25. This weekend is an opportunity for victims of impaired driving to share experiences and learn from one another while attending grief and bereavement related workshops facilitated by experienced professionals in the field. Most importantly, the Vigil provides an opportunity to public.y remember loved ones who have beer killed in impaired driving crashes and to pay tribute to loved ones who have been injured and whose lives In the short term, a $1,000 donation made recently by Ontario Pork will help three chapters of the Salvation Army in Perth County. But in the long run, the charitable contribution made up of proceeds from food booth sales at this year's Ontario Pork Congress, could also help point the way for other agencies to do the same across the pro- vince. In a brief presentation, Clare Schlegel, chair of Ontario Pork, made the goodwill gesture to Mark Steven Glaab, family services director with the Salvation Army, Wednesday, July 17th in Stratford. Three separate cheques, each worth $333.33 were presented to Army chapters in Listowel, St. Marys and Stratford. Schlegel acknowledged the benefits of making the donation, and of doing business in the Festival The choir of Trivitt Memorial Anglican Church in Exeter is hosting their fourth annual choir garden party on Saturday, Aug. 10. The concert will feature a ombined choir from Trivitt Memorial, Hensall United Church, and Precious Blood Church, as well as local soloists and instrumentalists. Special guest will be the Trinity Bayfield church choir. Highlights will include Friedhelm Hoffmann (choir director and tenor soloist) performing Ave Maria and Sure in the Shining Night, as well as cabaret songs. Susan Graham, soprano will join in a duet and perform a number of solos. Ralph Topp, will provide both organ and piano accompaniment. Other items on the program will include A Schubert Lieder, an oboe solo and much more. The concert starts at 4:30 p.m. and there will be a dinner, hosted by the choir, immediately after the concert. Dinner tickets are $7 and are available for purchase at the door. There is no admission charge to have been forever changed. The Candlelight Vigil is also a time for MADD Canada to generate public awareness about victimization at the hands of impaired drivers. MADD Canada's mission is to stop impaired driving and to support victims of this violent crime. The Traffic Injury Research Foundation notes that drunk drivers kill an average of 4.5 people and injure 125 people in Canada every day. 'Reflections and Rays of Hope' is the selected theme fcr the weekend. A local artisan, Cheryl Campbell from Huron County, donated her services to sketch the artwork that will be used in advertising and keepsakes for the weekend. Kelly Walker is the keynote speaker for the weekend. Bruce County was home to Walker in his early years. He is a dynamic public speaker, storyteller and gifted musician, who will highlight the victims' weekend. Walker has offered to compose a special 'music of hope' theme song specifically for the MADD Canada Victims' Weekend and Candlelight Vigil 2004 weekend. He has travelled extensively throughout City where the Pork Congress is held each year. "We benefit as being part of the community and we're appreciative of the opportunity to continue to work with the Pork Congress here in Stratford," said Schlegel; who also farms in the Tavistock area, nearby. "It's our opportunity to give to a worthy cause in the community." At a time when Ontario farmers are being hurt by a hot, dry summer and unfair trading conditions south of the border, such contributions are important to help those who are less fortunate in the community. Glaab, although new to the Stratford district, welcomed the donation, noting the money will go to various uses including the food bank and family services. "It's the generous donations like this on a regular basis that allow us to continue on," said Glaab. "(An the concert, but a goodwill offering, to support the work of the choir, would be appreciated. Canada and the United States to encourage, entertain and contribute to emotional healing in a meaningful, uplifting and insightful manner. The support, ideas and suggestions from the community-atT large will help the local chapter host a fabulous weekend featuring 'down- home' hospitality with care and compassion for victims of impaired driving. MADD Huron/Bruce invites community volunteers including service clubs, OSAID students and business professionals to be a part of the planning and organizing of this national event. Interested, energetic individuals are welcome and encouraged to contact the local chapter to offer assistance in their area of expertise. Victims and non-victims of impaired driving will work together. Various committees will be set up to co-ordinate the many areas of planning. Skills and talents in advertising, fundraising, clerical and computer work, photography, journalism, artistry in floral arrangements and decorations, gospel and spiritual music, facilitating grief and bereavement workshop sessions, transportation amount like this) goes a long way." Other agencies that have benefited from similar donations of Ontario Pork Congress proceeds in the past five years include the Food Bank in Mitchell and the House of Bessing in Stratford. The 2002 Pork Congress marked the return of the annual industry showcase following a year's absence due to fears over the potential spread of hoof-and- mouth disease to North America from Europe.
