HOSPITAL AUXILIARY GETS HELP FROM FORT ERIE
Fort Erie makes another donation to the Auxiliary at its local Douglas Memorial Hospital. Pictured is President Flo Odding handing a check to Helen, the Auxiliary representative. According to Helen, "Douglas Memorial Hospital is a very active little hospital with therapy and rehab rooms, palliative care rooms, as well as chronic and general patient care rooms. We at the Auxiliary raise money through our Tuck shop and our fund raisers to purchase items for the hospital which are not large enough to be capital expenses. In the last 2 years we have purchased:
. bed and bedside tables for every bed in the hospital

A LOOK BEHIND THE CAMERA
A look behind the camera at the Rotary TV Mega Auction held at the Pen Centre by Cogeco Cable TV in St. Catharines in November. It's a combined fundraiser of the Rotary Clubs of St. Catharines, Welland, Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls Sunrise, Fonthill and Fort Erie. The Rotary Club of Fort Erie who submitted the photos. And, it is the Fort Erie's trusty 12 members who recruit the Food from generous schools and restaurants in Niagara Region, and serve it to the many volunteers who make this event happen to help the 6 local communities the clubs serve.
