From left Iris Currell (Community Living -South Huron), Mary Dejong (Tuckersmith), Carol Prang (Zurich), Yvonne Reynolds (Exeter -3), Gordon Hill (campaign chairman), Marg Turnbull (Grand Bend), Karen Schwart- zentruber (Stephen -1), Lisa Gingerich (Seaforth) and Donna Greb (Board President). Last year, the cam- paign to raise funds for Community Living - South Huron blew past its goal cif $18,000 by raising $24,000. This year, the bar has been set even higher with a goal of $24,500 for the door-to-door canvassing which gets underway May 1 with the funds designated for a new wheelchair van. Administrator Bruce Shaw says Community Living's fleet includes vehicles that are 10 years old that need to be replaced. The association is serving more people including high needs clients and a successful campaign would meet the association's needs, Shaw said. Other capta'rs are Chuck Spencer, Brenda Feeney, Tammy Bibby, Barb Reschke, Connie Masse, Irene Nicholson, Ann Klungel, Doris Hackney, Nancy Stokkermans, Mari Lave, Marg Baker, Judy Borden, Lois Turnbull, Clarice Hern, Paula Sereda, Anne Bray, Tracy McKnight and Karen Etherington.
