Page 2-May 15,1986-Fort Covmgton Sun-Fort Covington, N.Y. UP ON MAINST By Pat and Jennie COUNCILMAN LUCIEN LEROUX announces that there will be a meeting Wed- nesday, May 21st, 7:00 at the Fort Town Hall for anyone interested in serving on the commit- tee or helping to get the Town Park organized. People have complained about not having the park for years, so now is the chance to do something. LUCIEN HAS finally settled down after the excitement of the birth of his daughter. \Good- ness\ I said to Grandma Madeline Leroux, \you'd think he was a first time father.\ \Well she replied, with her characteristic big smile, \you know, they're all so precious.\ Madeline should know. MY, THERE ARE A LOT OF GROUPS BEING organized in the community and doing such good things...in addition to the ones that already existed. Who said the old towns were dead? ADULT VOLUNTEERS GREATLY NEEDED. Ann Shaffar tells us that approxi- mately 400 people are expected to participate in the Adult Summer Special Olympics Games which will be held at SRCS on May 24th from 9:00 to 3:00. A general informational meeting will be held May 22 at the SRCS high school cafeteria. Please contact Ann at 358-9533 or 358-4185 after 4:00 p.m. THANKS TO ALL THOSE who contrib- uted to and supported Saturday's Book and Bake Sale and local Arts and Crafts Display at the Reading Center-Museum. It was profitable and we will need the money since we are trying to raise enough for a new furnace. THE REAL SURPRISE was the number of books sold. The whole entry way of the Center is full of books selling for $2.00 a bag. I tried to resist the temptation, figuring that the last thing I need are more books, but within 15 minutes I had two bagsfuL.for other people. THE SRCS FFA has a large variety of veget- able and flower plants already started. They will be sold at he 8th Annual Farm and Home Show which will be held this wekend at the SRCS arena. THE THE SRCS CLASS OF 1976 will hold a meeting this Friday, May 16th, at 7:00 at Dawn Mayville's to discuss plans for a class reunion.

THE SAW TOOTH BORDER on the Ohio Star Quilt, 1985 was put on the Pat Gaglianese which is quite a lot of work according to veteran quilter, Barb McElwain. LOST. A pair of glasses was lost by one of the ladies working at Saturday's bake sale some- where between the Town Hall and Fish's store. FISH'S, BY THE WAY, has just received a new cash register and will have an express lane very shortly. CONGRATULATIONS TO 1986 PROM ROYALTY, Queen Darlene Grant, King Nick Russell, Princess Ruth Kerwin and Prince Tommy Lauzon. Regretfully, we could not cover the prom this year and we are desperately looking for pictures not only of the candidates but others as well. GET WELL WISHES ARE extended to Mrs. Joseph (Hazel) Lauzon. POPPY DAYS in the Fort will be May 16th and 17th. IT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT one of the world's biggest McDonald's located in Rome may have to close its doors because it is just too popular. The 450 seat fast food restau- rant is disturbing the Italians who feel that Americanization in the form of a hamburger is a vehciie for vulgar American mentality. Left wing intellectuals have gathered outside the res- taurant imploring people to stick to pizza and pasta. What they need now is a Pizza Hut next door to McDonald's. WORD AROUND TOWN IS that the recently enacted 21 year purchasing of alcohol law had little effect on the numbers of those who managed comsumption prior to this year's prom. DON'T FORGET THAT THE HEAR- ING FOR THE BUDGET is on Monday night, May 19th at 7:30 p.m. Since the Board has already adopted the budget your voice won't make much difference, but you can find out a great deal about the tax levy of $910,000. and guess what your taxes will come this fall. Salmon River Menu In Praise Of: Parents Support Group Concerned Parent Support Group c/o Monique Martin RD 1 Box 46 Constable, NY 12926 Dear Concerned Parnets: I wanted to take some time and officially put down in words the praise and \pats on the back\ you all deserve. The growth in both size and concern since the start of the Concerned Parent Group has been great. The support net- work that the group has, also has grown and is a valuable asset for parents in need (be they in the group or not). And, no matter the topic, the determination that radiates from the group is strong. WOW.. .it is just so great to see and feel! The work that your group is doing is very necessary and I sincerely hope that other par- ents and community members join you in your concern, and help our youth to be drug and alcohol free. The energy, time and manpower it takers for this to happen is considerable, and I applaud all of you for your past, present and future efforts and successes. I would like to give special attention to the care that you are giving to the alcohol/drug free dance. Cover all avenues, having input from the teens and seeking donations are all direct reflections of how con- cerned you are. A grand example! Franklin Couunty Sub- stance Abuse Services is behind you all the way! Sincerely, Rebecca Benham Prevention Education Coordinator SRCS and Blood Clinic Dear Mr. Bissell, Thank you for your terrific effort on behalf of the Blood Services Program. We col- lected 98 productive units of blood. There were 106 people who came to donate, 65 were first time donors, five people were deferred from donating and three people gave insuffi- cient amounts. The deferral and U.B. rates were high which I think caused our col- lection to come in below goal. The number of first time donors was very high and they're an important part of our donor population. It's obvious you and your students did a terrific job recruiting. Our staff had the highest of praise to offer in regard to your visit. They stated every- thing was very well organized, donor flow was smooth and the general atmosphere was positive and pleasant. Salmon River has a wonderful reputa- tion among our nursing department and they were most happy to be returning this year, for another success. Your motivation, enthusi- asm and commitment to the Blood Services Program is seen year after year in visits such as this. On behalf of the many hospital patients who have been helped from your collection, I thank you.

Some kids brought a sandwich from home and nothing to drink. Also, the bus was a State Ed. bus. Isn't it all refunded by the state? - 2. How come when a child is put in the box, they cannot go to dinner or be brought a lunch (if they don't have any). While the teacher eats in front of treat animals better than that. 3. How come we can hire a science teacher for $29,000.00 plus? Most starting salary is about $16,000.00. Do we have that much extra money? 4. Maybe you ought to get out of your office and look around and see what is going on in our school. Maybe you ought to attend more teacher and parent conferences. Then we wonder why there is so much unrest in the community. Philip Lauzon P.S. More people should them? From 7:00 a.m. until milk.
