Annual Dinner and Emil Zatopek Award Presentation

Saturday, March 15, 2003
Sheriton Hotel, Palo Alto
5:30 PM - Cocktail Reception
6:00 PM - Dinner

The Annual Fifty-Plus Awards Dinner, held Saturday evening, is a favorite of weekend attendees. Besides meeting other fitness buffs, you'll load up for the next day's athletic activities at a delicious banquet. You'll also enjoy an entertaining evening program, and rub elbows with famous movers and shakers-athletes, coaches, researchers, writers, event organizers, and others-who have made significant contributions to our understanding of successful aging through exercise. In the past, speakers such as running author and philosopher George Sheehan, legendary Olympic champion Emil Zatopek, renowned marathoner Bill Rodgers, and Boston Marathon gender-barrier-breaker Kathrine Switzer have entertained guests at the dinner.

During the dinner we also recognize the individuals—our volunteers and others in the community and on the worldwide stage—who have inspired us through their dedication to our mission: improving the physical fitness of older adults by promoting expanded awareness and involvement in active living.

This special evening reaches its peak with the presentation of the annual Fifty-Plus Emil Zatopek Award, an event you will not soon forget. This year the Award will go to Anne Cribbs, President of the Bay Area Organizing Committee for her effort to bring the 2012 Summer Olympics to the Bay Area and former Olympic swimmer.

Since the dinner is always a sellout, make sure to reserve seats early.
