DC A skill imparted A veteran member of the In- tergenerational Teaching Learning Community Program, also known as "grandfriends" program, Don McKinnon, (left), at age 82 continues to devote time to teaching youngsters how to tie fishing flies. One of his pupils in the current program is Doug Poulin, 10, a Grade 5 pupil at Prince of Wales School. McKinnon maintains his abilities both to teach and to tie despite the fact that he has been total- ly blind for several years. The pro- gram is operated by Community Care of Belleville and more volunteer senior citizens with special skills are invited to take part by telephoning 962-5668. (Staff Photo) i
