Kerra And (Continued from Pago 822) □ The shelter “is over the hump” now, said board member Drumm, with five or six months’ worth of funding now in the bank. The need for the service will not abate, though, and the board is in the process of trying to set up a steady income for Clare House. In The Best? “We're looking for recommen dations as to which restaurants deserve to run for this top honor,” says Kelley Shearer, retail and foodservice coordinator of the Pennsylvania Beef Council. “No restaurant is too big or too small. All we ask is that they are a loyal supporter of bed'—both on and off the menu.” Restaurants are judged on how they incorporate beef into current menu trends, innovative prepara tion methods and beef dominance on the menu. If you have a special restaurant in mind, contact Kelley Shearer with your recommenda tion at The Pennsylvania Beef Council, 4714 Orchard Street, Harrisburg, PA 17109 or call (717) 545-6000. ‘Patches’ addition, several fund raisers are planned for just before Easter. The results of Kerra’s inspira tion, Drumm said, have been far reaching. “They say you can’t ‘out-give’ God, and that’s the truth.” □ Kerra’s enjoying the com pany of Patches, now a good bit larger than during farm show sea son. He lives next door, and Keira visits several times a day to feed and care for him. He, in turn, “fol lows her around,” Kendy said. He’s also become a celebrity of sorts he worked over Christ mas, in a local church Nativity scene. No doubt, he played that role with the same flair that he gave to his show ring performance last year at the Manheim Fair. Donations to Clare House are the sole source of income for the shelter. Anyone wishing to help the effort can send a donation to Clare House, P.O. Box 104, East Peters burg. 17520. HERNIA? No hernia is unrepairable, even after sev eral previous failed attempts.
