Cystic fibrosis is one of
the most life-threatening
diseases of children. A
little known entity only
twenty-five years ago, it
occurs in approximately
one of every 1,600 live
births in this country.
Funds raised through
bike-a-thons are used to
assist the parents of
afflicted children by lend-
ing them therapeutic e-
quipment which they might
not otherwise be able to
afford, as well as finance a
national effort to find a
control or cure for cystic
fibrosis and all other
serious children’s lung-da-
maging diseases.
Volunteers in the com-
munity of Mount Joy are
presently organizing a
bike-a-thon to be held in
May for this express
purpose. Sponsor sheets
can be obtained from Jim
Sarbaugh at Seiler Grade
School, Tom Konas at
Grandview Grade School,
Jim Metzler at Beahm Jr.
High, or Jim Zuch at
Donegal High School. Will
you please consider partici-
pating in this worthwhile
event. If you do not wish to
be a rider, you might wish
to pledge a small sum to
someone who will be riding
in the bike-a-thon.
Look for pertinent infor-
mation pertaining to. the
bike-a-thon in your local
newspapers next week. We
can look forward to the day
when the lives of those
affected by CF are not just
lengthened but saved.
Wl.2n that day comes, our
local bike-a-thon will have
helped make it possible.
