Do you think it would work to start the contribution in Corner Brook.? The group could make a little ball with all their names on a list and send it to Grand Falls The Grand Falls gang could add their pieces Photograph the bigger ball and mail it or ship it to Harbour Grace where it gets bigger and MORE names. Of course the groups would have to be persuaded that the idea is workable. After a time in Harbour Grace the ball is taken to St John's Where it would possibly be large enough to get into the paper on a slow news day and we might get it on a plane (for free) or a moving van or ??? to you It could be news worthy in your area if Large balls were to arrive from faraway places with the names of contributors attached.
