* Ford Fusion Life in Drive Award recognizes women who combine talent with that little something extra that allows them to break free from convention to enjoy life with style and attitude * Brandy Cruthird is president and CEO of Body By Brandy Fitness Center and Day Spa, the first fitness center in her community. She is also the founder of Body By Brandy Fit Kidz, a non-profit organization.BOSTON, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford Fusion presented its Life in Drive award to Brandy Cruthird, president and CEO of Body By Brandy Fitness Center and Day Spa, at the grand opening of the Fusion Studio D at Natick Mall. At each stop of the Fusion Studio D tour, Ford will be awarding a "Life in D" award to a deserving female who combines talent with that little something extra that allows them to break free from convention to enjoy life with style and attitude. Cruthird has helped to put the lives of others in drive by opening up the first fitness center in her community. She has been on a mission for the past decade to make the community she loves a healthier one. She has conducted numerous fitness demonstrations nationally and locally, including the YWCA's Breast Cancer Awareness Day, the African American Women on Tour Convention, and Dimock Health Center's Body & Soul Wellness Connection. The award was presented to Cruthird by Steve Grant, Regional Sales Manager, Ford Lincoln Mercury. Her annual community event, the "Everybody Walk Your Body Fitness Walk and Health Fair," began in 1997 in collaboration with Mayor Thomas Menino, and with the Boston Parks and Recreation Department. This event has contributed to the motivation of thousands to become physically in shape. In 2006, Ford is taking Fusion Studio D, a lifestyle experience center where visitors can put their "Life in Drive" through an array of complimentary services from makeovers to fitness training and a health information center to various entertainment offerings. Fusion Studio D also helps raise awareness for the Race for the Cure which benefits the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The Boston race is slated for September 10, 2006. Additional cities for Fusion Studio D include Chicago, Miami and Cleveland. About the Ford Fusion The 2006 Ford Fusion breathes a fresh attitude into the American mid-size car. It distinguishes itself in what is the most competitive of vehicle segments with its standout exterior design and engaging driving dynamics. Fusion brings to the segment good fuel economy, advanced safety, clean emissions and roomy interior space -- all at an attractive value. Source: Ford
