Dear Sirs:

RE: St. Patrick's Day Shamrock Drive

On December 12, 1970, Columbus Charities Association, an organization
consisting of the 12 Councils of the Knights. of Columbus in the lower mainland
officially opened its 11 storey senior citizens home at 5233 Joyce Avenue,
Vancouver, B. C. On June 23, 1973, the Association opened its second senior
citizens home at Chilliwack, B. c. , ’

Of much assistance in ensuring the success of these projects, have
been the Shamrock Drives held by Columbus Charities Association in March of-

each year throughout the lower mainland. i.

Our Association is desirous of continuing its work in the area of |
senior citizen's developments throughout the lower mainland, and in this
connection, is planning another Shamrock tag day for March 14, 15, and 16,
1974. ;

In that regard, we would respectfully request your permission to
hold a tag day in your Municipality on those days.

Please be assured that every effort will be made to avoid any dis-
ruption or inconvenience to either the business community or the public as a
whole,

Your early consideration and kind reply in connection with this
request is greatly appreciated.

ON ck MRE 3 tia Or GEOR

Yours very truly,
COLUMBUS CHARITIES ASSOCIATION
