The Wingham Lions Club wishes to thank all the people who assisted
in the Snoworama for Timmy.: All proceeds from this event go to the
Ontario Society for Crippled Children. One half of the money raised
goes directly to the Crippled Children's Association and the other half
remains with the local Lions -Club for work with the crippled children in
this area. The Wingham Lions Club had over $7,000. in pledges. Special
thanks to the Wingham and District Snowmobile Association, without
whose hard work and support, this event would not have been such a
success. Special thanks to the sponsors who made it financially success-
