The District is hosting Muskoka’s Accessibility Conference & Seniors’ Wellness Fair Friday, June 2, 2017 – 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Gravenhurst Centennial Centre.
The morning program will feature a keynote address from Mark Wafer, the owner of six Tim Hortons restaurants in Toronto. Mark is dedicated to creating meaningful opportunities in the workforce for individuals with disabilities and sees the clear business case for inclusive employment. Over the past 20 years, Mark and his wife Valarie have hired 120 people with disabilities to fill meaningful and competitively-paid positions in all areas of the operations, from entry-level to logistics, production, and management.
