June 18, 2010 - Virtual Charity Race!Join us on Sunday August 15th, 2010 - Virtual Charity Race Out of this world fun!  Join the race where Avatars “compete” in the virtual world raising money to help adults and children. Click here to download the registration form. Why the virtual race? We are excited to provide you with a unique opportunity to be involved in the first ever not-for-profit fund-raising virtual charity race in Canada! While we are unable to host our annual Family Walk and Run along Zenway Blvd. this year due to traffic closure restrictions, the virtual race provides an innovative alternative until we return next year at a new location! What is a virtual race? Inspired by the hit movie Avatar, Meta Foundation has created this unique event that will take place in a virtual world (on your computer). You will view Avatars “competing” in a race to raise money for Meta Centre that provides multi-faceted services to adults and children with special needs. How do you participate? Please visit the Meta Foundation website. When you get to the site you will view a welcome message from the Eddie Shack Avatar, representing the long time hockey personality and supporter of the Meta Foundation. You will then be invited to select one of the eight Avatars. By selecting your favourite Avatar, you are guessing which one will win. All of the participants who selected the winning Avatar will be entered into a prize draw to win one of twenty great prizes. Make sure you tell all your friends, co-workers and family; it’s only $25.00 ($20.00 if you register before July 15th) for a chance to win big and help adults and children with special needs.
