These volunteer hours represent a strong sense of caring and dedication that these special individuals express towards their community and its senior members. Not only do these volunteers visit their special friends on a regular basis but many are able to attend the monthly inservice programs offered by the program coordinator for their own support and development. These volunteers quietly give of their time according to their own personal timetable. Each hour is precious! The benefits to our community are enormous. The seniors who are visited receive the gift of companionship; nonconditional caring and the stimulation of a new interest and friend. Not surprisingly, the same gifts are bestowed up on the volunteers plus the added pleasure that they do "make a difference'.

Mr. Jackson our Custodian South Crosby Public School . Easter Breakfast On March 3lst the grade 7 8: 8'5 and their teacher Mrs. Tedford held an Easter Breakfast for themselves the kindergarten and the staff. The breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, toast and apple juice. Everyone came early, too early to change in fact. That's right, everyone wore their pyjamas. I Afterwards the children played games directed by Buffy Goring and Jason St. Pierre. They played bunny tag and had an Easter egg hunt which was the best part. The grade 7/8 then put on a performance with the Easter song about the lillies and of course Peter Cottontail. There were poems about the Woodland Easter Bunny and again Peter Cottontail came into the picture. The plays were created by a group in the class. The Easter Bunny Who Forgot Easter was a big hit, as was Joe Cool bunny. After doing the dishes and cleaning up , our breakfast was over, but we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Special thanks to Mrs. Keates and Mr. Duncan for their help. - Heidi Merriman Grade 8 2/,» 7
