Dear Gary

I am pleased to say that I admire your courage and spirit. I have worked with disabled children with various illnesses and diseases and have found that these children are special in everyway. I also organised a trip to Adelaide with 30 disabled kids for 5 days - it was the best experience I could have ever done and well worth it. This camping trip was back in 2001-2003.


I would be happy to donate some money - I will pm you at a later stage.

Gary,

To try and keep the momentum going, I will continue your efforts by seeing if any of the Senior Shield teams will up the tally in Ballarat this weekend. I think it's a great thing.

Grumpy and I actually help out with the disabled league down here in Sale (which may I add was also started up by my other half). They are a great group and we always have a lot of fun.

One of the boys just loves his bowling so much, that last year we went through all the channels, including the State Trustees (which was challanging) and he now bowls with us on a Wednesday night also. Grumpy and I bought him a ball and bag for his birthday which he absolutely loves.

It's very frustrating at times as he is a great kid but because of his autism he can't talk. Just once I would love to have a conversation with him !!!

Apparently since he has been bowling in this adult league, he has become a changed person. It has really helped him to understand a lot of things and he is much more confident. It's great knowing that you can make such a difference in somebody's life.

I will let you know how I go on the weekend.

[grumpie]

Well as the Senior Shield team have kept the momentum going, now we throw up the challange to the Emerson teams this weekend !!

How about it guys?????

Just got a letter back from Scope with thank's to Dunn Shield $305 raised missed a couple of extra donation's that went direct THANKYOU ALL
Just to quote in thier letter ( sorry to scare wanabe parent's )

Cerebral Palsy is the most common childhood physical disability in the world today.
In Australia a child is diagnosed with crebral pasly every 15 hours.
There is no pre-birth test and no cure.

Hate the last bit.

Thank u all lol
