Jt 8 Orono We~kJy Tlmts, Wednesd~yJanuary 15, 1997 n Clarke High gives the miracle of- Christmas As the holidays are now over and everyone is breathlng a sigh of relief, Clarke High School students are proudly looklng back at their accom- plishments, especially with the Adopt A Family Campaign that took place before Christmas. Clarke Students decided that as their good deed for the holi- days they would help out the Bethesda House for Battered Women in Bowmanville. Ail of the homerooms participated in providing gifis for seven local familles. For a period of two weeks, students gathered pre- sents, money, and non-perish- able food items so that needy familles would be given the chance to have a real Christmas this year. The end result was beyond incredible. Ail the chil- dren and their mothers were provided with more than- ade- quate gifis as well as a gifi cer- tificate for fifty dollars at the nearest grocery store. The Bethesda House thanked Clarke'Students for their time an(. effort and were more than grateful for what they had accomplished. A special thanks goes to the Mdopt A Family com- mittee who organized and ran the campaign. Members were: Jessica Lee (chairperson), Dan MacDonald, Andrea Etmanskie, Emlly Tufts, Julie Harper, Paula Partner, Alecia Staples, Bob Witheridge, Andrea Rutherford, Lia Rutherford and staff super- visorn Mrs. Petherick.
