The Post's Corners student, after learning about Terry Fox at school and being inspired by Fox's story, decided to create his own campaign in an effort to help make a difference. He then ran daily in a park near his home, collecting pledges from friends, family and neighbours for his running. Adam and his mom Sharon stopped by the Oakville Unit to deliver the proceeds -- and since then Adam has continued his daily running and has raised another $52 toward his next donation. Ice cream in Ward 1 As a way to enjoy summer and address any public questions or concerns, Ward 1 Councillors Alan Johnston and Ralph Robinson invite Oakville residents to Ward One's fifth annual summer Ice Cream Meet and Greet at the Bronte Butterfly Gazebo.
