Clifford The Big Red Dog received an
enthusiastic welcome from children and
their families visiting the Autism Awareness
Day sponsored by the Barber National Institute
at the Millcreek Mall in April. Professionals
from the Barber Institute were on hand to answer
questions and provide information about America’s
fastest growing disabilities.
Children enjoyed creating craft projects and having their faces painted. A “Kids On The Block” Puppet Show was also held to help youngsters better understand the challenges faces by children with disabilities. C Wolf, the mascot for the Erie Sea Wolves, also stopped by with schedules for the 2009 baseball season.
The Barber National Institute also served as a supporting sponsor for the 8th Annual Autism Walk held on Saturday, April 25 at Presque Isle State Park (Beach 11).
