Oakville's first Great Ride 'N' Stride for Cancer was held here in 1990. Oakville firefighters are challenging others to see who can raise the most money.

All sponsors and nominees will be notified and invited to attend the award's ceremo­ ny to be held on Thursday, June 10th, at 1 p.m. at the Oakville Senior Citizens' R e c r e a t i o n Centre. The Oakville Senior Citizen of the Year Award was established in 1973 to recog­ nize an Oakville senior who has made outstand­ ing voluntary contributions to the Oakville community. This year, the award is sponsored by S m i t h K1 i n e B e e c h a m Pharma. For further i n f o r m a t i o n , contact the O a k v i l l e Seniors' Centre at 815-5966 or the Sir John C o 1 b o r n e R e c r e a t i o n Centre for Seniors at 815- 5960. Ford of Canada has ponied up a 1999 Ford Mustang Convertible as part of its sponsorship of this summer's Oakville Waterfront Festival. The Mustang will be raffled off as a fundraiser for the June 25th - 27th event, which in turn donates the proceeds to local community groups. Retail price for the car begins at $24,995. "Given that we've just redesigned the Mustang, and that we're celebrating the car's 35th anniversary this year, it seemed a natural for this year's fundraising effort," said Kevin Zimic, sponsorships manager, Ford of Canada. "A Mustang convertible is the epitome of 'open air' summer fun - and so is the Waterfront Festival." In fact, Ford made the announcement at a company "Beach Bash" celebrating the Mustang's 35th birthday. Two days before the Pony car's April 17th anniversary, employees "dressed down" in summer garb, cut cake to conga music, and hosted a send-off for classic Canadian Mustangs heading to Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina for the car's official North American birthday party, where some 3,000 Mustangs were expected to gather. Also in celebration of Ford of Canada's partnership with the Oakville Waterfront Festival, the annual Fundraiser for the Festival, Sailebration, was in keeping with the Mustang theme as a fashion show and everyone longing for warmer weather. S en io r o f Year A w a rd n o m in a tio n s a va ila b le Applications for the Oakville Senior Citizen of the Year are now being accepted. If you would like to nominate a special senior for this award, the following criteria must be met: • Nominee must be 65 years of age or older. • Nominee will be judged only on his/her voluntary contributions to the Oakville community since becoming a senior citizen or during his/her retirement years. • Nominee must have resided in Oakville for at least five years prior to nomination and must currently be an Oakville resident. Note that the nominee does not need to belong to any local senior citizens' club, centre or organization.

Nomination forms and any supporting documents must be received by the mayor's office or dropped off at either Seniors' "Our raffle tickets for the Mustang are sold primarily by community groups," says Linda Spalding, executive director, of Oakville Waterfront Festival. "It's all part of sponsor and community partnership. Ford of Canada's donation this year of the Mustang falls nicely into the theme of Summer Time Fun." A maximum of 10,000 tickets will be available for the Ford Mustang. They are $5 each and can be purchased from most Oakville community groups or through the Festival office. The winner of the 1999 Mustang Convertible will have the opportunity to select both the interior and exterior colours, subject to availability. This is the seventh consecutive year that Ford has been a major sponsor of the Waterfront Festival, which takes place just a few miles from its Canadian headquarters and two major assembly plants. Local dealers, Kennedy Ford and Oak-Land Lincoln-Mercury, also participate in supporting the Waterfront Festival and will have a variety of new vehi­ cles on display there.
