Leamington’s Little Helper shovels his way to $700
By Deanna Bertrand LEAMINGTON — Eric Dominguez couldn’t be happier with the results of his snow shovelling campaign this winter. The local St. Clair College Sports and Recreation student, who has
been deemed “Leamington’s Little Helper”, plans to continue getting donations and making other fundraising efforts in the future, and is looking at other ideas. “This is just fun to me,” he commented to CEO
St. Paddy’s packed house
A packed house greeted Roberta WHEATLEY Dibbley and Sandy LEGION NEWS (Beaupre) Wolf at the BRANCH 324 St. Paddy’s Day cel- Jan Watson ebration and meat draws held last Saturday. Winners were Shannon Moore (2), Terry Stevenson (2), Sherry Fleming, June Beaupre, Raymond Drouillard, Rick Dutot, Claudette Sykes, Kim Mercer and Lori Gouin. Marilyn Lyons won the 50/50 draw and Rick Dibbley won a basket of goodies put together by Roberta and Sandy. These ladies always go the extra mile to provide several draws over and above the meat. We thank them for great efforts and for their enthusiasm. We will run the Meat Draws at the Golf Course until the end of April. After that, golfing activities will be in full swing and we don’t want to take advantage of their generosity. We thank them for offering and allowing us to use their facility following the downtown explosion. Wheatley Legion planning to run an election for Executive members this spring. We look forward to some of our younger members stepping up to the plate. Some of us, me especially, have served for many years and are old and tired. We are looking for some of our younger members to step up to the “plate”. Give it some thought.
Christine Colautti at the Erie Shores Hospital Foundation (ESHF) office Tuesday, March 15 after presenting a cheque for $700, from the donations he received while shoveling driveways. He said the project became bigger than he expected with local media coverage and he even received a call from a family member in Vancouver. “I had eight driveways a day for two straight days,” he said after one of the snowstorms and had to use a white board to keep track. He also commented that many times while shovelling, neighbours and other family and friends would come out and help him shovel.
