Seussical the Musical Jr.. September 16, 2009 — October 1, 2009
| Description | The story centers around Horton the Elephant, who finds himself faced with a double challenge--not only must he protect his tiny friend Jojo (and all the invisible Whos) from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him, the only one who recognizes "his kind and his powerful heart." Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant, in a story that makes you laugh and cry.

| Description | OCT 2 - 8PM - VICTORIA PARK - FREE www.rubbersidedownmovie.com www.ccfc.ca The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of Canada is very excited to present Rubber Side Down - a entertaining and informative documentary about two men who cycled across Canada to raise money for Crohn's & Colitis research.

The Rubber Side Down DVD will be available for sale. Proceeds go directly to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of Canada. Media note: Interviews with RSD or CCFC representatives can be pre-arranged. ------------------------------------- "What began as an idea became a challenge. From a challenge, a commitment was forged. With a commitment, anything is possible. It is an epic Canadian adventure best summed up in three words: Coast. To. Coast. Spanning over three months in the summer of 2008, two amateur cyclists would attempt to pedal 8000 km from Victoria, BC to St.John's, Newfoundland, in an effort to shed light on Crohn’s Disease and ulcerative colitis—tragic bowel diseases that are in dire need of a voice. What they discovered will astound you. Experience a film that depicts the vastness of our land, the spirit of our people, the hilarious mishaps of two young lads, and a struggle that unites us." ------------------------------------- |
