"People just stood there i the pouring rain to watch the balloons go. It was a super day and the crowds were good all day. I'm just thrilled," says Adele Dren- nan, one of the organizers. The total was raised by selling ice cream, handing out balloons and asking for donations by 15 clowns on The Square and six at Suncoast Mall. Close to 40 volunteers helpeu with the day. The average total in the last five years was $200 to $300. "If the sun had been shining, who knows what we could have made?" says Dren- nan. "This year we sent out letters to businessmen and they helped a lot. We also had a lot of help from people who aren't in- volved In Kinettes or the Kinsmen." At 3,p..m.; Mayor Eileen Palmer and 10 - year -old Robbie Wade let off the balloons. The big clump of balloons came doWn in a bush near Carlow.
