12 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday February 20, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Paint downtown yellow for women If you think you are seeing yellow downtown, you are, as the Zonta Club of Oakville is celebrating its second annual Paint the Town Yellow event Feb. 20 to March 8. Paint the Town Yellow features vibrant, sunny window displays in participating downtown Oakville storefronts, as they compete in a window design contest, in support of International Women's Day. Last year more than 20 businesses participated and this year approximately 30 businesses are on board. On March 8, cities and towns across North America will commemorate International Women's Day, with the goal to encourage women to realize their dreams and aspire to their full potential. Look out for a splash of yellow along Lakeshore Road on Saturday, March 8 as a number of Vespas will cruise along mainstreet. Stroll along Lakeshore downtown from Feb. 20 to March 8, and help the Zonta Club of Oakville ensure the future for women is bright, equal, and safe. Windows will be judged by the community at large so be sure to cast an official vote by entering a ballot at www.zontaoakville.com.
