Canvassers needed for C.N.I.B. drive For the past seventy years the Canadian National Institute for the Blind has been working hard to ameliorate the condition of the blind in Canada. The 1980's are a time of much change and many challenges. As society grows older the number of persons who experience a serious loss of sight grows larger and larger. The CNIB York Durham district office has been providing services to any one of any age who suffers a vision loss in the Scugog Township for over ten years, In op for CNIB 10 Sonlinue assis ns who are and visually impaired in the year to come, a to door canvass of Port Perry and the surrounding areas is being planned for the later part of September. As with many of the endeavors under- taken by non-profit organizations the support of community volunteers is essential from Port Perry, Greenbank and Seagrave. If you could spare two to three hours per night for three of four nights in the later part of September, your assistance would go a long way to insure that rsons who are blind and visual- y impaired persons can continue to get help from the York Durham CNIB when they need it. If you are interested please call John Olivero at 985-8608 or the District office in Markham at 294-5752. new year 1st Port Perry Cubs ended their cubbing year June 4th with the winning of the Bryan Rabb Memorial Trophy.
