The Lucknow Sentinel, 1989-04-12, Page 7Daffodils delayed for Society A west coast cold snap is threatening the annual April fundraising drive to fight cancer. Cool, wet weather in B.C. has delayed the spring daffodil crop, which puts the local Canadian Cancer Society fundrais- ing drive at least a week behind schedule. "We're beginning to question whether we'll get the daffodils at all this year," says the society's Huron County public relations coordinator. Dorothy Venkiteswaren said Monday most of the counties annual daffodil fun- draising events, including Saturday after- noon's Daffodil Tea at Victoria St. United Church in Goderich, will proceed even without the daffodils. "We're hoping the people will contribute anyway." said Venkiteswaren. Last year, Huron County residents pur- chased 6,000 bunches of daffodils, which raised more than $15,200 toward the socie- ty's research and other programs. Na- tionally, six million daffodils were sold, raising $1.8 million. The little yellow flowers, which have become symbolic of thebattle against the disease, were to have been available this weekend for sale in malls, businesses and at fundraising events. Delivery of presold bunches, mall bookings and other events must now be replanned throughout Southwestern Ontario. The daffodils are now expected to be available April 21 and 12. Despite delays, Venkiteswaren said local society workers still hope to sell 6,600 bunches and raise more than $16,000 in Huron County.
