I have permission from the "Belleville
Times" newspaper to copy word for word on my web page. The
article you are about to read is from April
16, 1998. It is on page 8. The article was written
by me (Mike Dowd) in "Your Opinion". The article has
been modified a bit. NOTE Belleville Times
is no longer under Orechio Publication. North Jersey Newspaper
now owns Belleville Times.
"MS Tour Is On"
To the editor:
* My goal for National Multiple Sclerosis
for 1998 in $2,000.
* I decided this goal after reaching over my
goal in 1997. I am right now at $506.50 as of April 6th.
* Would you like to help me reach my goal?
There are six stores that are happy to hold "Big Mike
Dowd" MS-170 Collection Pledge Bottles.
* Drop any amount in the bottle. You may
also write out a check.
* Write it out to the National Multiple
Sclerosis Society and put it in an envelope and into the bottle.
* The stores that have the bottles are:
Sunsational Tan, The Chiropractic Wellness Center, Happy Daze,
Shoppers Express, Corbo & Marbach's and Joey's Pizzeria.
* If your store would like to help collect
pledges for Multiple Sclerosis Society with bottles. Then please
drop a note in one of the bottles in any store listed.
* Thanks to all owners and managers for
letting me put the collection pledges bottles in their stores.
Also, thanks to Howard Klausner, the editor, for printing all the
information for your readers.
* Keep up to date about the pledges I
collected and about the bike tour coming up May 16th and 17th. Go
on the web at URL http://pages.prodigy.com/airwaves.
* If you want to know more about the
National Multiple Sclerosis Society, you can call 1-800-FIGHT MS
or go to the world wide web homepage at http://www.nmss.org.
* Next time, I will write in the Belleville
Times will be after the MS-170 bike tour. I'll let you all know
how much I raised and what happened from the bike tour.>
