Congratulations! Should be exciting in 2012 for your town.
That sounds like an awesome event. I have not heard of Actifest until now. Thanks for sharing.
That does sound pretty cool Al and Peggy. It's amazing how good of a shape some seniors are.
Al & Peggy - Congrats to Brampton Ontario for winning! Actifest sounds like it's going to be a great event.
Sounds exciting! after seeing what I saw yesterday (a 80 year old hiker with a prosthesis, keeping pace not far behind me, and I am in shape!) I wont underestimate the talent!
This sounds like a fun event to follow, take pictures of, and blog like crazy about.
Al and Peggy - Congratulations to Brampton for winning the opportunity to host the 2012 Actifest.
Until yesterday, I was not familiar with Actifest when I heard through a very reliable source that it was being held in Oshawa, Ontario for 2010 from August 10 to August 12, 2010.
Congratulations! So that is in two years and 6 days....we expect lots o'pictures!
How about some free tickets?
Congratulation!
Who knows I may attend...
I had never heard of Actifest either, but it sounds like a great idea. Good for Brampton
Oh, no! Are you telling me that I'm now a Senior. But I don't wanna be a Senior yet!
