In a small community, we quite
often, take everything at, face
value. However in the `90s we, as
members of this community,
must take the responsibility of
being sure we really do know our
community. The onus is upon us
not to :be taken.
Sohow do we do this? A tele-
phone 'conversation With.
..Constable.: Andy 'urgess..gave.
me some ideas to pass along to
you our readers.
Firstly, most fund-raising.
events are advertised in the ;com-
ing events, in this paper, and.
quite often larger. projects are
subject matter • for editorial cover-
age. Did you read about it or -have
you heard others talking about
it? . ,
secondly, if someone asks you
for monetary support for some
project or ,other and you don't
know that tperson, ask for some
identification, - "ask to See pledge:
sheets that should carry ;full
information: about the. fund-raiser.
Itit is a child and l you don't know
them,' ask for their parents°
.
names' and phone num
•ber and then call and check, or
call the school if it is' a school
project. If it is a service club or:
charitable organization call a rep-
reserttative of that club or organi-
zation. Check out the information
you' are being given. Your sup-
port doesn't have to be given
right at that moment. If y90 want
to check out the info, ask the per-
• son to return another day. •
If' you are really having bad
vibes about the situation or per-
-son,'
er--son,,' you can always call your
community -oriented police offi-
cer
In our community we are very
fortunate to have dedicated mem-
bers of a wide variety of service
clubs. Without them, our commu-
nity wouldn't be what it . is today.
Don't, be one of those • "once bit-
ten, twice shy" people. Our ser-
vice clubs need your support.
And ` remember don't tar` every-
one with. the' saMe brush.',.It is
unfortunate that, one bad situa
tion can. make us wary. of those

Best buddies - Mitch Helm and Casey Emberlin are the best of
friends. Four-year-old Casey likes nothing better than giving Mitch a
ride in this unique wagon made by Roy Emberlin. The buddies were
enjoying the morning air last week and made a trip downtown under
the supervision of Roy. (Pat Livingston photo)
