She made anoth er three trips to the parachute school - in vain - during the summer. 'The skeptics saw this as a sign that I shouldn't jump," says Douthart of the severe weather conditions which prevented her from leaping from an airplane. "But the only sign was that the weather wasn't per fect for my perfect jump. The only message or sign one can receive from this is that greatness can be achieved if people support each other."

Originally expected to jump from a height of 2,800 feet, "the pilot asked me if I wanted to jump from 4,000 feet and I said OK," said Douthart, adding "what's another 1,200 feet." Douthart's jump raised more than $11,000 for the Arthur and Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre, supported by Brainchild, at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children. Brainchild, the Brain Tumour Research Assistance and Information Network, was established about six years ago. Douthart got involved in Brainchild follow ing the death of her son Christopher, 7, from brain tumour disease in August 1997. She has two other children, Ryan, 7, and Patrick, 5. She is grateful for support she's received. "I've just had an incredible outpouring of support from this amazing community we live in. Not everybody agreed with what I was doing, but they realized I was doing it for a cause and supported me. How this community continues to lift us up and continues to support us is incredible." Last year she raised $34,500 from the first annual Rigatoni Dinner and Silent Auction for Brainchild at Le Dome Banquet Hall. The second annual Rigatoni Dinner and Silent Auction will be held on Sept. 28th, start ing at 6:30 p.m., again at Le Dome. Almost all of the tickets, at $15 each, have been sold, however, donations to the Silent Auction are welcome. Call Kathy Douthart at 847-2179. All proceeds will be going to the Arthur and Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre. Last year, "Le Dome owner Angelo Rizzuti donated everything that night. He was very generous." Special guest will be Father Mark Curtis. "One of his songs from his new CD, The Angels Still Sing, is dedicated to Christopher," concludes Douthart.

R o s h Hashanah, which means New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, are only 10 days apart. Known as the High Holy Days, they are the most significant dates in the Jewish year, equivalent to Christmas and Easter in the Christian calen dar. The revelry usually associated with the begin ning of a new year will be noticeably absent. For Jews, this is a time of painstak ing introspection and self-evalua tion. Synagogues fill with people who come to offer penitential prayer, confessions, and petitions for health, prosperity, and peace. At Shaarei- Beth El Congregation of Halton, 186 Morrison Rd., Rabbi Edward Goldfarb will be leading High Holy Days ser vices, which will include the partic ipation of the choir and cantori al soloist, Ted Labow. Services will be held on Friday, Sept. 10th, 8 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday morn ings, Sept. 11th and 12th, 10 a.m.; Sunday, Sept. 19th, 7:30 p.m.; and Monday, Sept., 20th, 10 a.m. Children's Services will be held Sunday, Sept. 12th, at 1:30 p.m., and Monday, Sept. 20th, at 2:15 p.m. For further information, call Shaarei-Beth El, 849-6000. mailto:licensing@agco.on.ca http://www.hollandpark.com Parachute jump was fifth attempt, thanks to bad weather SPIREA ALL EUONYMUS VIBRANT FALL FLOWERS TULIP BULBS j GARDEN SOIL BURLINGTON DUNDAS ATTENTION!
