w rcdnesday, May 26, 1999 Triathlon m akes beam s come true for 12 children On Tuesday, May 11th, a dream ime true for some very special chil- en - the trip of a lifetime to the Magic ingdom of Disney World, Florida. Many of these children are terminal- ill, or are physically or mentally chal- nged. Dreams Take Flight, a national on-profit organization, is dedicated to oviding this wonderful experience for ese young people with the help of cal organizations and businesses. Air anada donates the use of a plane, and ie pilots and support staff also donate ieir services. Energy Fitness Centre on Lakeshore oad East, Burlington, is one such orga- ization, and sponsored a triathlon to lise funds for this cause. On May 2nd, alton residents participated in a three- Dur Bike-Jump-Run Aerobic and were tccessful in raising more than $12,000 double last year's goal - which lowed 12 children from Halton to ljoy the Magic Kingdom. John Picone, an Oakville resident id teacher at St. Thomas Aquinas econdary School, raised over $5,000. e is particularly grateful to the stu- ;nts and staff at St. Thomas, as well as ie members of St. James Catholic arish, family and neighbours who so ;nerously sponsored him. Energy Fitness hopes to encourage ther schools to take up this challenge ;xt year and participate in the Year 000 fundraising event for Dreams ake Right. The goal is to raise over 25,000 and make "a dream a reality" >r these special children. THE OAKVILLE BEAVER B5 Photo by Peter J.

Descendants of pioneer families from these villages will share stories of "the days when" tonight, May 26th, at an open meeting hosted by the Oakville Historical Society (OHS), at 7:30 p.m. A number of original family repre­ sentatives will informally share experi­ ences of village life at the meeting to be held at Munn's United Church at Dundas Street and Sixth Line. The location is of particular note since Munn's Church, dedicated in 1844, is one of the most historically significant reminders of village life. The question and answer session open to OHS members and non-mem­ bers. Refreshments will be served. l EnglishRktt&Sdhool BERTIN STABLES 3445 Dundas W.
