Clinton News-Record, 1986-04-23, Page 39faster Seals help children Dear Editor: Every day of the year thousands of physically disabled children in Ontario are fighting to live life to its fullest. And each 40 of the year The Easter Seal Society is thereto, help them win their fight. More than 6,800 children across the pro- vince count on Easter Seal support to help them overcome what can be incredible odds, and move closer to realizing their ultimate level of ability. Whether support takes the form of the provision of a wheelchair, artificial limb, transportation to treatment centres, a memorable camping holiday, the benefits of extensive research programs, or a home visit by an Easter Seal Nurse, the Society remains dedicated to helping special children in need - a privilege we have enjoyed since our inception in 1922. The wide scope of Easter Seal services IIIwould not be possible if not for the generosi- ty off individuals and businesses who care about the quality of life available to Easter Seal children. This would also be impossible if not for the tremendous Volunteer &emit- ment of our 235 affiliated Easter Seal Ser- vice er vic Clubs who spearhead local fund raising acuities, and adrr ister Easter Seal funds on behalf of children in their communities, The lions Club of Clinton has been anae- tide partner in this important work since 1950. Throughout this time many past and present members have sacrificed hours of determined effort to help physically disabl- ed children. We know this exceptional record is one which all of the members take pride in sharing, On behalf of The Easter Seal Society, our heartfelt thanks to the entire community of Clinton for backing thousands of young fighters served by Easter Seals. Your gifts to the 1986 Easter Seal Campaign will go a long way helping disabled children go a long way. Sincerely yours, F. Howard Keast President The Easter Seal Society Residents busy travelling By Milena Lobb MAITLAND AND 16TH - Yes, the SS No. 4 Community Club is still meeting. There are all kinds of excuses for the lack of reporting. The main one is travelling, or running the roads, as the men say. In fact quite a few from the area have been away somewhere. Doug and Gertrude Feagan, Jack and Lula Merrill, George and Marion Colclough drove to Florida where they stayed for a month. Then Doug went to Sault Ste. Marie to visit with daughter Jean. Murray and Marlene Forbes flew down to Nassau for a week of sun and surf. Norene Tebbutt, Marilyn and Lisa Forbes drove to Kissimme, Florida. Thev spent a few days with the Baechler family at Orlando. Herb and Faye Oakes drove to Nashville, Tennessee, stopping to visit with friends in Ohio. Mervyn and Jean Lobb spent a few days in Ottawa with Jean's cousin. Robin and Phyllis Thompson drove to ' Nova Scotia and the rest of the family were flying down for Jamie's wedding on April 26. In the Lobb house I was the road runner, or maybe a flyer. I flew to•Edinonton to visit with Brian, Lana and Shane for a week and then took an extended five days in the Seaforth hospital as I had developed pneumonia while in the west. I got well enough to go to the Insurance Convention in Toronto with Bill, but to really shake the bug a trip to Florida was necessary (good enough excuse). JoAnne and I flew to Fort Myers, stayed for a week filled with hot sunny days at the tk CLINTON filEWS RECf310.
