www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Saturday June 16, 2007 - 15 Soap it Up at CARSTAR to raise funds for CF Today (Saturday) Oakville residents are invited to bring their cars out for a wash at the Trafalgar Collision CARSTAR at 547 Trafalgar Rd. or Ontario Auto Collision CARSTAR, located at 2212 Wyecroft Rd. for the fourth annual `Soap it Up! For Cystic Fibrosis (CF) car wash. The charity car wash is taking place simultaneously all across Canada at 70 different CARSTAR locations. All proceeds raised will be donated to the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CCFF), and used to fund more than 50 research projects for cystic fibrosis and new treatments. With more than 5,000 cars washed and $60,000 raised last year, CARSTAR is hoping this year's event will surpass those numbers. Tickets for the car wash cost $5 and can be purchased at CARSTAR locations right up to the day of event. With every ticket that is purchased, customers are enrolled in a draw for a "California Dreamin" vacation prize pack. This year's car wash is sponsored by Quiznos and Shell Canada. Cystic fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disease affecting young Canadians. It attacks mainly the lungs and digestive system. A build up of thick mucus occurs in the lungs creating breathing difficulties. In the digestive tract, the mucus makes it difficult for the body to absorb nutrients. Those affected by the disease must adhere to a rigorous treatment plan that incorporates daily physical therapies to loosen the mucus and taking a large amount of digestive enzymes to aid in nutrient absorption. About 3,500 Canadians of all ages have cystic fibrosis and one in 25 Canadians carry the defective gene responsible for the disease. INVENTORY CLEARANCE SHOWROOM MOVING! FINAL 3 WEEKS!
