PAGE 3. Soothe the Soul in Blyth FROM BLYTH Egg-citing campaign begins • in Blyth An eye-catching promotion is hatching across Ontario — The Easter Seal Society's "Paper Eggs" Campaign. From March 16 until April 15, shoppers can purchase a vibrant Paper Egg for $2 at partici- pating retailers across the province, in support of children and young adults with physical disabilities. Scrimgeour's Food Town will be taking part in this "egg-citing" drive to help the more than 20,000 children and young adults with physical dis- abilities across Ontario. Shoppers can purchase a Paper Egg, sign it, and then have it displayed in the store window — creating a vibrant land- scape of people in the community who have helped Easter Seal children and young adults. "The cost of having a child with a physical disability can be anywhere from $10,000 to $40,000 a year," said Charlotte Gibson, president and CEO of The Easter Seal Society. "You'd be amazed at how far your 'toonie' will go." Paper Eggs were launched in 2000, raising more than $100,000 and securing over 500 participating retailers across Ontario. Due to the overwhelming success of the cam- paign, Paper Eggs will be launched across Canada this year in communi- ties all over the country. The Easter Seal Society has been helping children and young adults with physical disabilities reach their highest level of independence since 1922. Today, over 8,000 families rely on the Society to purchase expensive equipment needed for mobility and communication, send kids to summer camp, provide access to information and resources and invest dollars in research and prevention.

North Huron is hosting the WOAA PeeWee Girls year-end hockey tour- nament this Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the Blyth and Wingham arenas. Fourteen teams of 12 and 13- year-old girls from Grey-Bruce, Huron, Perth and Wellington Counties will be participating. "Hockey is the fastest growing female sport in Canada," said con- venor Doug Walker. "Girls love the fast pace, the competition and the opportunity for personal and physi- cal development. Over the course of the last eight years WOAA women's hockey has grown from three teams to 61 teams and this amazing growth is expected to continue as other cen- tres become aware of the tremendous benefits offered by women's hock- ey." Walker said that many of the women's teams in the WOAA also participate at other levels of compe- tition. For example some of these teams participated in the Silver Stick with the Kincardine IGA team win- ning the International Silver Stick for PeeWee C centres in Sarnia in February. Provincial competitions are also available to local girls teams — last year the Wingham PeeWee girls won the silver medal at the provincial tournament in Brampton for the PeeWee B grouping.
