Festival to heip handicapped

HANDICAPPED kids will
take the up-beat at the Jazz
Festival to be held at The
Westin Bayshore Sunday,
June 2, 10:30 to [1]. The
Festival is hosted by the
Special Education Endow-
ment Fund and the Hot Jazz
Society of Vancouver.

The day will open with
Sunday Services conducted
by Lloyd Arntzen's Classic
Jazz Band at 10:30. A novel
feature will be the playing of
our new special-kids theme,
“Thank Your For Your
Time,” an original work by
Michael Mueller, arranged
by Fred Stride and recorded
by musicians from the sym-
phony and the production of
Rocky IV. Opening the show
will be a group of special-
needs kids, jazz musicians
and celebrity MCs perform-
ing When The Saints Go
Marching In.

With the cast of Ain't
Misbehavin’ doing several
numbers, and 10 jazz bands,
there will be 10 solid hours
of the best in traditional
jazz, Dixieland, swing and
blues. All musicians are
donating their time and tal-
ent for
special-needs kids.

Prizes will be raffled

The Fund came into being
last. year when cutbacks
threatened the five-year
undergraduate program in
Special Education. A group
of concerned citizens found
that this was the only pro-
gram of its kind in Canada,
and that the importance of
training special teachers

became even more pro-
nounced just ai the time
when the program became
threatened: advances in
medical and drug therapy
were enabling handicapped
kids to leave institutions in
favor of reguiar schools,
with Special Ed teachers
playing a decisive role.

The Endowment Fund's
commitment is that research
and community support will

have a decisive and catalytic
effect in helping 20% of the
children in this Province —
the Special-needs kids. The
Jazz Festival is just one way
of helping the Fund pick up
where medicine leaves off —
helping the children lead
fuller and more independent
lives.

Admission is $8 and
children 12 and under get in
for half price. Brunch is ex-
