The funds raised will be directed to both national initiatives in support of childhood oncology programs, as well as, to local and community programs through pediatric oncology hospitals and centres across the country. The ride will be Mosley's first with the Sears National Kids Cancer Ride, now in its ninth year. However, he is no stranger to the sport, having cycled for more than 10 years. In the last four years in particular, the Oakville resident has made longdistance trips through the annual Wellspring Peloton Challenge. It raises funds to help the Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation provide free cancer support programs to people living with cancer and their caregivers. There are eight Wellspring centres in Ontario, including one in Oakville that serves Halton and Peel. Mosley said he heard about the Sears National Kids Cancer Ride and found both the route and cause intriguing. While his family has been fortunate enough "not to be afflicted by the awful disease," Mosley, who is married and is a father of two daughters aged 22 and 23, said he's aware of the devastating impact it can have on individuals and families. see Oakville on p.35 DIAMOND Fabio De Rango Pharmacist/Owner Voted Oakville's Favourite Pharmacist & Pharmacy · Patient Counselling · Complete Diabetic Care · Home Visits · Consultations · Free RX Delivery DE RANGO PHARMACY INC 478 Dundas Street West | 905-257-9737 Canada Post Services available: · Personal Training · Boot Camps · Weight Loss/Management · Osteopathy · Naturopathic Medicine · Massage Therapy · Acupuncture Testing available: · Organic acid testing live blood analysis - over 20 years of experience · Hair Mineral Analysis · Food Allergy/IgG & IgE Food Sensitivity Testing · Comprehensive stool analysis · Saliva Month Long Hormone Testing · Gluten Testing 2013, 2014, 2015 2014, 2015 DE RANGO PHARMACY INC 2501 Third Line | 905-465-3000 Open 24 hours | 7 Days a Week www.shoppersdrugmart.ca Visit us today! #22-2172 Wyecroft Rd., Oakville, ON L6L 6R1 Dr. Nyla Jiwani ND Naturopathic Doctor chris robertson persoNal traiNer 905-825-9996 · www.onwc.ca an active healthy lifestyle starts here Isn't It About Time For A Hearing Test???
