We got a fascinating request through the Verona website from a man in Kitchener. Mike Andraza volunteers for a rabbit rescue
organization there. He writes that about 20 years ago, there was a woman here in Verona who had a heated barn where she kept
unwanted or abandoned rabbits. She was known by some as "The Rabbit Lady of Verona". Mike would love to know more
about her. Anybody got a clue?
Check out the Verona website, where Don Coleman captured the magic of the Christmas Tree LIghting evening with delightful photos
of the crowd. You might see yourself there!

what can be done on a very limited budget." Buffet included. Jan. 17 at the Lions Hall. The frolicking starts at 7:00. Admission by donation.
