Little Things is a children's clothing party that was held at the Daycare in hopes of raising money for new equipment for the facility. Pictured are hostess Karen Sheppard, and Rebecca Aked who displays a sample of the clothing that was up for sale. Utica Daycare holds Little Things Utica Daycare held a fund- raiser Thursday night, in hopes of raising money to purchase needed equipment for its facili- ties. The Daycare hosted a "Little Things" Children's Wear Party for mothers of the children that are enrolled in the Daycare, and for anyone else who wished tojoinin. "Little Things" is a company started five years ago in Rich- mond Hill, which offers cloth- ing from newborn sizes, to size 16, for boys and girls. The hostess takes down all the information of the childrens sizes and has clothes for each available for sale at the time of the party. Snowmobile Mild weather and careless- ness are the chief causes for most deaths in snowmobile acci- dents in Ontario so far this win- ter. The Ontario Provincial Po- lice reports that from December to February 9, there had been 22 deaths in 18 separate snow- mobile accidents. In the month of January alone, 11 of those deaths oc- curred when snowmobiles crashed through thin ice orinto open water. Last January, by compari- son, there was just one fatality due to thin ice. And the OPP says that in the majority of the fatalities, al- cohol was a factor. Other causes of death in fundraiser Utica Daycare organized the party as a fundraiser to benefit the Daycare. The more sales the hostess makes the more money the daycare receives. Ten per cent of all sales go di- rectly to the Daycare. A spokesperson for the Day- care stated that the Daycare is a non-profit organization, and with the sales they will be able to purchase equipment they otherwise could not afford to buy. She continued by saying the Daycare is looking into pur- chasing more equipment such as playground apparatus for the children, and are alsoin the process of buying an air condi- tioner for those hot summer days. Deaths snowmobile mishaps include hitting hidden objects and colli- sons with motor vehicles. If the present trends con- tinue this winter, the number of snowmobile fatalities will ex- ceed last winter's toll of 30. The OPP says many fatali- ties are preventable if snowmo- bile operators would refrain from using alcohol, and check ice conditions before venturing onto alake or river. Ice conditions on many bod- ies of water have been made ex- tremely hazardous this winter because of the wide fluctuations in temperatures. "If you don't know, don't go" is a slogan the provincial police force is urging all snowmobilers to keep in mind.
