"Seniors' Jubilee Week
"
August 18 - 22, 2003
| WHEREAS: |
the arts are a unifying force in our City. They enrich our quality of life and are vital to the cultural and social development of our communities; and |
| WHEREAS: |
there is no national or local designation to honour the valuable resource and legacy of our seniors. The Seniors' Jubilee is the largest annual celebration of its kind in Canada and features more than 1,300 talented performers aged 55 and over; and |
| WHEREAS: |
now in its 15th year, this much-anticipated week-long variety show extravaganza, at the prestigious Roy Thomson Hall, provides talented seniors with an opportunity to share their joy of singing, dancing, music and laughter; and |
| WHEREAS: |
the Jubilee recognizes and validates the tremendous talents of seniors from communities across Ontario, and as the largest seniors' entertainment showcase it inspires audiences and continues to prove that age is no barrier to accomplishment. |
| NOW, |
| THEREFORE: |
I, Mayor Mel Lastman, on behalf of Toronto City Council and the 2.5 million people of our great City, do hereby proclaim August 18 - 22, 2003 as "Seniors' Jubilee Week" to recognize the tremendous contributions made to this valuable and unique event by the performers, organizers, volunteers, audiences and sponsors. |
[Signed Mayor Mel Lastman]
