Wingham, Ontario,

The Editor,
Dear Sir;
This letter is sent to let you know
that the Wingham and District
Association for the Mentally Re-
tarded, as a member of the
Canadian Association for the
`Mentally Retarded, Will be joining
in a nationwide membership re-
cruitment effort in May. The week
of May 11 to 17 has been
designated as National Week for
the Mentally Retarded.
During this week, in our efforts
to attract new members, we will
spotlight the needs of the retarded,
and the services we are providing
and seeking to' provide in the
Wingham District. Flowers of
Hope marigold seeds, which have
been packaged by youngsters in
our area, will 'be sent to every
householder in the district. In
order that those who receive these
Flowers of Hope packages do not
overlook their importance as a
means of appeal, we feel it
necessary to substantiate the
Flowers of Hope letters with
advertising in newspapers, on
radio and on television.
Anything -you can do to interpret
our story of the needs of the
retarded in our 'district will 'be of
inestimable value to us. We are
now making plans for the construc-
tion of a new nursery school
building to accommodate °retarded
pre-schoolchildren. 'We are also in
the beginning stages of an
Adult Workshop for ,the people in
the Wingham District. We are in
desperate need of new members in
our Association to help "with these
projects. We have done a great
'deal for the retarded in our, area,
but there is so much more that
needs to be done:
We would like to express sincere
appreciation on behalf of the
Wingham and District Association
for the Mentally Retarded for your
continuing cd-operation and assist-
ance in bringing our message to the
public. -
Cordially,
Mrs. A. Swatridge,
Publicity Chairman of the
Flowers of Hope Campaign.
