Ontario Healthy Communities Coalition Annual Conference
"We are sowing the seeds...are we reaping the harvest?"

Ontario Healthy Communities Coalition's fourth annual conference takes place
June 11-12, 1999 in Woolwich Township.  Come experience a uniquely rural,
highly participatory, fun event.

Woolwich Township is home to St. Jacobs, Elmira and other historic villages.
It is a place where horse-drawn buggies compete for road space with cars and
trucks.  And where local shop owners struggle with a proposed 'big box'
store.

With respect for the past and looking to the future, Woolwich Healthy
Communities asks, "We are sowing the seeds...are we reaping the harvest?"
