Well, neither did 1 until this weekend and yet 1 have been - writing about them and their monthly card parties held during the winter months. In the past I and many others have referred to them as senior citizens which is only partially correct. In June of 1975, with the aid of Sister Florence. they formed the association for which the government at that time gave them a small grant to help get going. To qualify for the grant they had to have 10 signatures at least and six of these must be 65 years acid over, while the remainder could be juniors. Then in September of 1975, they received their one and only grant which was to give their organization a strong beginning. To be a member of the group you need not be 65, as the word Diamond suggests 60 or close to R. There are no fees required and member- ship is voluntary, it is non -denominational and the word district means sur- rounding area, not just Dub- lin. There is usually/ a donation at the door Which helps curtail the cost of. prizes for the card parties and help with-•l*lre>Soodies at the lunch which follows the cards. In the past the group has taken trips to the Ice Capades in London and Kitchener, attended the Roy- al Winter Fair and has gone to Niag�a Falls. The Dublin and District Diamonds do not just travel and play cards. They have' wisely used their meager funds to acquire carpel bowl- ing and they also play INTERESTED FACES -Many of the members of the Qublin Diamonds, a club for senior citizens (and junior ones too...see Joan Cronin's story) were an interested audience for a variety program which highlighted a series of card parties which have been held all winter. The final afternoon of cards, the program, and a supper were held Thursday at St. Patrick's school in Dublin. (Photo by White) The kids are delighted it's Easter bunny time Easter is this coming weekend and with that comes the thought of a new Easter bonnet and the hopes of wearing your new Spring outfit, weather permitting. The Easter Bunny also arriv- es with his chocolate treats and colourful eggs. But most important is remembering that it is Good Friday and the Crucifiction of Jesus Christ and His Resurrection on Easter Sunday, which is observed in all churches. Many families gather on Easter Sunday like at Christ- mas time and serve the traditional ham or leg of lamb at their Sunday dinner. School children have a holiday on Easter Monday, which helps them recouper- ate from all the over -indulg- ing which often follows after the Easter Bunny has left. With Easter, one always thinks of Spring, but this past week has us having second thoughts or more to the point, very serious doubts. The March break was certainly not what I and many others planned. All that house-cleaning which. was going to be done with the windows open and blank- ets drying on the clothes line was just a passing Enough Mother Nature sure wrecked my schedule. That old adage, 'Many hands makes light work', was to be the motto, but the work is still to be done and the hands are all off too school. Oh well, kids, don't smile too widely, there are always Saturdays. The little children enjoyed the snow while it lasted, and their elders endured it when commuting to and from their work. The month of Aprif is almost here and that is supposled to _ bring showers which in turn brings the May flowers. The flowers are already up so all that is left to come is the weeds. All in all, I wish you all a very happy Easter and be sure to leave the bunny a big carrot. He needs his vitamins too. There will be no Dublin and District Bingo this week as it is Good Friday but it will resume on April 8 with a Jackpot of 5450. on 53 calls.
