Most days I.do very well. Then all of a sudden I become overwhelmed. is this normal? A. Certainly. Grief can be analogous to waves hitting on the shore. At first, the waves are large and powerful and they knock us down. As we work through our grief, the waves begin to subside to a degree. When we haven't noticed any waves for a while, we . know that we are jucceeding in rebuilding our lives. If we know this is normal and part of our grief process, we can recover from the waves sooner and leam to expect fewer of them in our future.

The Drawer Boy won audience and critical acclaim with Toronto audiences last year and earned a Governor General's award. Eric, who is directing The Drawer Boy at the Blyth Festival this summer, is the parent of two Falstaff school students. He notes, "The school has a great resource of parents who are theatre people," adding that the cabaret night is a way that parents can do something positive for the school and education in Huron and Perth. Falstaff Public School is located in the heart of downtown Stratford and accommodates 100 students from Kindergarten to Grade 6. It is one of seven schools named for possible closure in the Avon -Maitland school district. Eric notes. "So many parents are committed to this school.Neighbourhood schools are very important and we are working hard to keep our downtown active." The cabaret night will celebrate the arts and the school community. Eric adds, "All of us are militant about keeping the arts alive in schools. We're sending out the message that we can do something positive in a difficult situation." The evening is a talent and auction event. As well as his role as host for Artists for the Arts. Colm Feore will test his auctioneering skills with an auction of over 30 items. Many auction items have been donated by parents and community supporters including singing lessons, swing dance lessons. maple syrup, handcrafts, theatre tickets. Naked goods, gardening supplies and gift certificates. Money raised from the cabaret will be shared by Falstaff School and the Avon - Maitland School Board's Foundation for Enriching Education Perth -Huron. The education foundation provides funds for arts and other areas to complement core programming in Huron and Perth schools, says Lynda Lentil -McGregor of the foundation. • Last year the foundation took the Artists on Wheels program to more than 50 elementary schools in the Avon- Maitland Board. The education foundation also partner. with.the separate school hoard to help - fund science fair and science tech olympics in Huron and Perth. Last year the foundation receixed grant money from the ministry of • education to develop local business and education liaisons.
