Dear Editor:
The Canadian Cancer Society and the Kiwanis Club of Osoyoos would like to extend a big thank you to AG Foods, Buy Low Foods and the Osoyoos Credit Union for allowing Kiwanis members to sell daffodils in their establishments recently.
Another big thank you goes to all local citizens who purchased daffodils in support of the cancer society.
We apologize to those who wanted to purchase daffodils, but were too late. The live daffodils for the cancer society have not been sold in Osoyoos for several years.
This was a new project for the Kiwanis Club and neither members of the Kiwanis Club nor the cancer society were sure how many bundles of flowers we would be able to sell.
Obviously, we sold more than we brought in and we had planned to have daffodils available for sale on both Friday and Saturday, but we were sold out by 3 p.m. on Friday.
We will definitely bring in more daffodils for sale next year.
In the meantime, please support the Canadian Cancer Society by donating and picking up a daffodil pin to wear during the month of April.
The daffodil pin boxes are located in many businesses around town.
Thanks again for supporting the Canadian Cancer Society and the Osoyoos Kiwanis Club.
We would not be able to perform the work that we do without the support of community and your support is very much appreciated.
Sincerely.
Donna Kelso
Secretary
Kiwanis Club of Osoyoos
