Enter the Virtual Toledo 60 Strong Calendar Contest

You, or someone you know, could be featured as a “pin up” in the 2021 Toledo 60 Strong calendar, an exclusive calendar showcasing inspirational “60 somethings” and highlighting Toledo events and activities. In addition to appearing in the calendar, winners receive celebrity treatment with a virtual kick-off party, professional photo shoot and compensation for their modeling time.

Anyone age 18 or older can nominate a friend or family member - age 60 to 69 - who has achieved remarkable levels of fitness, pursued a new hobby or helped those in need. The candidate might be “giving back”, fighting a chronic condition or caring for someone who is.

Here’s how it works:

• Log on to www.Toledo60Strong.com and submit an application form, 200-400-word essay, head shot and full-length photo by Monday, Aug. 31. Instead of the essay, you can upload a smart phone video describing the candidate.
• Or download an application form at www.Toledo60Strong.com and mail the completed form, a 200-400-word essay, head-shot and full-length photo to: Toledo 60 Strong Contest, c/o Independence Health Senior Care Advantage, Kendra Doriot, 4235 Secor Road, Toledo, Ohio 43623. The entry must be postmarked by Thursday, August 27, 2020.
• Those who nominate winners will receive a $50 gift certificate.

Toledo 60 Strong candidates must be between ages 60 and 69 on Sept. 1, 2020, and a resident of the following Ohio counties: Erie, Fulton, Defiance, Hancock, Henry, Lucas, Ottawa, Putnam, Sandusky, Seneca, Williams, and Wood.

Celebrity judges will virtually select 12 winners who exemplify how life after sixty can be a vibrant and active time. Contestants are judged on health/fitness/wellness, community involvement, volunteerism and how they inspire others.

Winners must be available Thursday, September 17, through Saturday, September 19, 2020 for a virtual party and photo shoot. Questions? Email us at MedicareInfo@IndependenceHealthSCA.com. All proceeds from calendar sales benefit The Toledo Clinic Foundation, which provides financial assistance for patients of the doctors at The Toledo Clinic who are currently undergoing treatment and in financial need.
