'Hand-in-hand' to join
students, handicapped
By COLLEEN SICKS
Collegian Staff Writer
Mentally handicapped children
and adults will have a chance to
experience a day of fun and com
panionship as part of the third
annual Hand-in-Hand Festival.
The event, sponsored by the
University’s Recreation and
Parks Society, will bring about 450
mentally retarded Central Penn
sylvania citizens of all ages to the
University for a day of fun activ
ities. Each special guest will also
share the experience with a stu
dent volunteer.
The festival will be held Sept. 28
from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the
Intramural Building fields.
Mark Chilcott, community rela
tions committee member and Rec
reation and Parks Society
director, said the Hand-in-Hand
festival has three goals: to provide
a memorable day for mentally
retarded individuals; to increase
public awareness of the needs and
abilities of the mentally retarded;
and to provide a unique learning
experience for all guests, volun
teers and organizations involved.
But Chilcott said that while 200
volunteers signed up to participate
in the festival, there still are not
enough volunteers to make it a
one-on-one experience.
“We really need more help,” he
said.
Chilcott said most of the current
volunteers participated in last
year’s festival. He added that the
volunteer committee is actively
recruiting more volunteers.
Several fraternities and student
organizations will assist the Hand-

in-Hand organization as a service
project and will help create a
carnlval-like atmosphere by build
ing booths.
Neal Manning, president of the
University’s Circle K, said he par
ticipated last year as a volunteer
and plans to take part in the festi
val again this year.
“I think everyone should get
involved,” Manning said.
Anyone interested in volunteer
ing can contact the Recreation and
Parks Society at 865-1851.
The Hand-in-Hand organization
has its origin at St. Joseph’s Uni
versity in Philadelphia, Chilcott
said. Other colleges in Pennsylva
nia and New Jersey have held
similar festivals that have been
very successful, he said.
Several entertainers will per
form including University juggl
ers, guitarist Randy Hughes, the
Phyrst Family and entertainer
Bruce Clevand. There will also be
clowns and mimes, a petting zoo
and marionettes.
Chilcott said there will be orien
tation sessions for volunteers from
7 to 9 Monday night in 309 Sackett
and Tuesday night in 128 Sackett.
Volunteers will find out what to
expect from the special guests and
will learn simple first aid tech
niques.
Chilcott said fund raising began
in February to provide the activ
ities free to all special guests and
volunteers. The food committee
has made it possible to provide the
guests and volunteers with a free
meal and a snack through the help
of various local sponsors, he
added.
