Community Sponsored Bus: ‘will be donated to the
Hospital Society intermediate & ¢
Extended Care Extension

ORDA KRe saa SS eee

A Para-transit vehicle will provide the special-needs residents of
the Castlegar and District Hospital 60-bed intermediate and extended
care extension with the freedom to leave the hospital and participate
more fully in activities throughout the community.

The Castlegar Selkirk Lions Club is spearheading the drive to raise
the necessary funds to provide the specially equipped vehicle which
will be fitted with a wheelchair lift and restraints.

But it can’t be done without your help.

To raise the $60,000 necessary to purchase the bus prior to the
scheduled April 1 opening of the new hospital extension will take a

massive community effort.

Groups, organizations, service clubs,
individuals, businesses, children’s clubs
and schools are urged to get involved.

Plan a walk-a-thon, car wash, penny
drive, bake sale, or any fundraiser of any
sort in aid of this worthwhile project.
Then contact one of the persons listed
below.

- If possible, the Castlegar Sun will

come out and cover the event. Cheque
