Pag« 7 Chocowinity Barbecue Annual BBQ Dinner Chocowinity Township Volunteer Fire Department recently held its annual BBQ Fund Raiser dinner and proudly boasts of it being the most successful yet.... According to spokesmen for the Department, approximately $1,50&.00 was cleared by the 28 volunteers this year....following eight weeks of planning, and 24 hours of hard work by the men and women of that organization. Fire Chief George Fleming related that over 1,000 pounds of pigs were barbecued, over 400 lbs. of potatoes were cooked, and over 200 lbs. of cabbage were made into slaw. At one point and time cars were backed up in front of the Fire Department for 1/4 mile, and the line extended all the way through the building into the back and front yard. Fleming related to us that the “Indians” worked hard throughout the night cooking, and then early Saturday morning the ladies appeared and brought with them cakes, pies, and goodies to be sold in addition to the barbecue. With the perfect weather, and expert cooking, the Department profited the most it ever has...and the citizens of the area once again proved that they truly believe in supporting the Volunteer Fire Department....as we all should.

Warwick will lead the Vanceboro area Hope Chest appeal to raise funds for the fight against MS (Multiple Sclerosis). The announcement was made by Woody Durham, Chairman of the Eastern North Carolina Chapter of the Multiple Sclerosis Society. Funds collected in the campaign will be used to expand support services and the equipment loan program to residents of Eastern North Carolina who are afflicted with MS. Multiple Sclerosis is a neurological disease affecting the brain and spinal cord. It is not contagious nor is it a mental disease. It has been called the “Mysterious crippler of young adults” because it is usually first diagnosed between the ages of 15 to 50. Technically, the disease attacks the myelin sheathing of the central nervous system, destroying it in patches. The myelin sheath acts much like the insulation around telephone wires, and when it is destroyed, the flow of nerve impulses to and from the brain is interrupted or distorted. The resultant symptoms from this destruction of myelin can be: paralysis, double vision, bladder or bowel problems, loss of balance, loss of coordination, and speech and hearing difficulties, among others. There are more than 500,000 people in America with MS. People who would like to help should call Rev. —^QiO)5'44-12fl2. _ Cracker-Jacks Cracker-Jacks Perform Vanceboro Elementary was the Sunday afternoon scene of a gathering of over 100 people to see Young Senior Citizens perform.
