B2 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, June 23, 1999 Golf tournament for cancer research What began as one man's efforts to raise some extra money for the Canadian Cancer Society has grown into a major fundraiser. Three years ago, the Peter D 'Attoma Memorial Golf Tournament at Saw-Whet Golf Club attracted 80 golfers and raised between $7,000 and $8,000 for cancer research. Two years ago, 130 golfers helped raise $12,000. A dinner and silent auction at Le Dome Banquet Hall bolstered the proceeds. Last year, a full field of 144 golfers raised between $15,000 and $16,000. Again, there was a dinner and silent auction at Le Dome, attended by 350 people. About 20 items val­ ued between $100 and $1,000 were auctioned last year. Tournament organizer Tony D 'Attoma was pleased, having raised $35,000 in three years. This year he hopes to have 30 items. "We would like to have more people at the dinner -- Le Dome holds 400 people," said D'Attoma. "I decided to organize a golf tournament after my dad, Peter D'Attoma, passed away, in July 1995. He had lung cancer, and when I went to the hospital to visit him, I couldn't help but see the people who were suffering, especially the children. "I talked to my brother Frank about doing something, and we decided on organizing a golf tournament. The first year, there were only two or three of us doing all of the work." Now he has a golf tournament committee which includes, in addition to his brother, his cousin Louie Amanteo, Angelo Rizzuti of Le Photo by Peter J.

Hopedale Mall finds niche with 55-Plus B y W ilm a B lo k h u is BEAVER FOCUS EDITOR T've got to go to Hopedale Mall for 55-Plus.' Words expressing this sentiment may by typical of older people living near Hopedale Mall who have joined its 55-Plus group. Since launching 55-Plus in October, for people aged 55 and over, about 600 peo­ ple have joined, says Lorrie Lewkowscz, Hopedale's marketing and service centre co-ordinator. Each month, the mall holds one discount day and hosts a social event geared to their interests. The most recent event was a Tea Dance with CHW O's Jim Paulsen. Other events have includ­ ed health and travel fairs, a financial symposium, an ultra sound bone density clinic, a bingo, and tomor­ row, a Volunteer Expo will be held , June 24th, from 1 to 3 p.m., sponsored by the Halton Social Planning Council & Volunteer Centre. "The over 55 group rep­ resents a substantial portion of Hopedale demographics in the immediate area," said Lewkowscz, adding 55-Plus is run by the mall and sup­ ported by its tenants. "We have a large number of people over 50 who con­ sider Hopedale to be their neighbourhood shopping centre," she continued. "And because this large number of older shoppers, it seems appropriate for us to do something for them. Our 55-Plus days have become very popular. Our member­ ship grows monthly. "Many of our 55-Plus members belong to other groups and 'I can't go to this - I 've got to go to Hopedale for 55 Plus day.'" Offering something like 55-Plus to its older shoppers "builds loyalty," adds Kathy Bonner, the mall's general manager. "It contributes to and reinforces Hopedale's posi­ tioning as a good neighbour. We consider ourselves to be a neighbourhood mall." Bonner said the over 50 demographic is "the fastest growing" segment of the population. "The baby boomers are all in their 50s now or dose to it. We need­ ed to address this segment of the market." The recent Tea Dance was a success, concluded Bonner. "We had one table of four who stayed for the entire time, from 2 to 7 p.m., and were up for most of the dances. We gave them a spe­ cial prize." For information call Hopedale Mall at 827-0229.
