Neighbors Day in La Crosse
La Crosse is still looking for volunteers to help for its Neighbors Day on April 24. In 2009, 273 people received assistance from 56 volunteer groups. The need is expected to be just as strong this year, said Heather Suby, president of the La Crosse Jaycees, which coordinates the event. Volunteer forms are available at www.cityoflacrosse.org. Volunteers can also register from 8 to 9 a.m. April 24 at Myrick Park's main shelter. A free lunch for volunteers will be offered from noon to 2 p.m. at Myrick Park. For more information, e-mail neighborsday@ yahoo.com or call (608) 791-1133.
Whatever happened to being personally responsible for helping your neighbors instead of showing them the way to the nearest cold-hearted bureaucrat's office? Tell me, when someone in your family falls on hard times do you open your home and your wallet to help them get over the hump or do you simply ignore them and tell them which government office to go to? It sickens me that so many people in our community are selfishly turning their backs on our neighbors and then deluding themselves into thinking that voting for big government programs is the same as personally caring for one another.
