10 ---------------------------------------- / ------------------------ " Oakville Beaver Weekend Sunday, October 8, 2000 A South Pacific Adventure For many, this exclusive tour will be an Adventure of a Lifetime. Enjoy relaxing on a beach in Hawaii and Fiji, explore the diverse attractions that Australia has to .offer and marvel at the magnificent scenery and photogenic areas as you journey through New Zealand. A perfect way to do this tour is to break the trip in Hawaii en route to Australia and Fiji on the return from New Zealand. As this exclusive group will only have a total of 15 passengers, it enables eating in interesting restaurants, not the usual eating halls that larger groups are forced to use. Having their own private bus allows the tour to move at the pace that the group dictates. Stopping for that special Kodak moment no problem. Their own private guide will have time to answer any questions that may arise as well as add interesting extras. The tour itinerary was created byjulia Chisholm, Groups Director for Uniglobe Glen Abbey Travel, who will be escorting the tour and once again her 12 years group experience will ensure that everything runs smoothly for this 28 day tour departing March 7.2001. i-r n Healthy eating workshop Tuesday Choices 4 Health, Hatton's Heart Health and Cancer Reduction Initiative will present a workshop titled Quick and Easy Ways to Healthy Eating.
