Please reply to Linda at: lindaconnell2@gmail.com and indicate the number of people coming. Don’t be disappointed … do it now. Payment is to be made the day of the clinic.
About Terry:
Terry is definitely here in spirit. She certainly would not have missed a bicycle maintenance course. When Terry retired from her job as Executive Director of a large Synagogue in Ottawa, she treated herself to a brand new custom-made bike because she planned on doing a lot of biking. Then another opportunity arose. Terry was elected as the Hadassah-WIZO National President.
Hadassah-WIZO is a volunteer organization which funds projects for Children, Healthcare and Women in Israel and Canada. One of the projects is a daycare centre for underprivileged children in Acco, Israel which Terry had recently visited. This centre has now been named the 'Terry Schwarzfeld Ottawa Daycare Centre' and the funds raised at this bicycle maintenance course will go directly to this cause in her memory.
