Sweepstakes was held to establish the Blyth and District Community Centre Capital Fund, in preparation for the inevitable capital projects at the Centre. The first sweepstakes netted over $22,000. Dwight Chalmers, Todd MacDonald and Steven Sparling are at it again and have organized the sec ond annual sweepstakes. This year, only 1500 tickets are available at $50 per ticket for a chance to win a fully- loaded, 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited Edition. “Just like last year, the odds are great,” said Chalmers, “the winner chooses the colour and we pay the taxes.” The grand prize drawing will be held Christmas Day. Someone will win a Cruiser for Christmas. There are also four early-bird bonus drawings, the first one will be held Saturday, Nov. 4 for 10 free Sweepstakes tickets. Other early-bird bonus prizes include: Maple Leafs tickets; an authentic autographed print signed by Maurice Richard, Frank Mahovolich and Johnny Bower; and an authentic autographed Curtis Joseph jersey. “Ticket sellers are out in full force in the area,” said MacDonald, “and based on the tremendous community support last year, we hope to sell out this year.” Visa and Mastercard orders can be placed by calling Jim Gilmore at 523- 4256, ext. 29. War Amps new video tells story of nation’s ‘earlier D-Day’ The War Amps is releasing a new video in its NEVER AGAIN! series just in time for Remembrance Day. A War of Their Own: The Canadians in Sicily and Italy is com prised of two parts, each 60-minutes in length. Part I: Sicily to Ortona, which has just been released, covers the campaign from the Sicily inva sion to the battle for Ortona and has now been released to community channels across Canada. It will also air on Global TV and the Prime spe cialty channel on Nov. 11. Part II: The D-Day Dodgers fol lows the Canadians as they take part in the battles in Northern Italy such as the Gothic Line, Coriano Ridge and the Savio River. It will be released in December. The series shows how the Canadians' in Sicily and Italy faced tremendous odds never before expe rienced by the Canadian Army and developed innovative techniques to fight in an inhospitable terrain against an experienced enemy force during almost two years of steady fighting. “Canada’s role in the D-Day land ings in Normandy is the stuff of leg ends,” said War Amps Chief Executive Officer Cliff Chadderton, who wrote and produced the video. “A War of Their Own” tells the story of another D-Day almost a year ear lier - on July 10, 1943, when Canadian troops landed on the south ern shores of Sicily.” “From there,” he said, “the Canadians, as part of the famous British 8th Army - earned respect as a distinct force as they made their way over the mountainous island, across the Messina Strait and up the Italian mainland.” Chadderton added that the Canadian battles in this theatre were front-page news. Italy, however, became the forgotten front once the world turned its attention on the long-awaited storming of France. “It should never be forgotten that 93,000 Canadians fought their way toward Rome and beyond and that almost 6,000 are buried in cemeter ies from Sicily to Northern Italy,” Chadderton said. “The Canadians in Italy, in a ques tionable jest, were called the D-Day Dodgers. The implication: they were avoiding the “real” war in France. “A War of Their Own “puts their achievements into perspective,” he added. The two-part series, like all War Amps videos, was funded through corporate donations.
