The 44th annual Terry Fox Run hits the streets of Kapuskasing next Sunday, September 15th beginning at the Golf Club at 11 am. Organizer Sue Renaud says participants can register at 10:30 to either walk, bike, or jog the five-kilometre route.
“I will note that if someone would like to do a shorter route and just go to the one kilometre marker and turn back they are welcomed to do so. If you would like to do the whole 5 kilomtre circuit you are welcomed to do so as well and if you’d like to double it and do 10 km that’s great as well.”
Last year the Run raised over $10,000 and included school events that were held throughout the month.
“Usually participate around the same time, but usually by the end of September so often many of our local elementary schools that do participate put out notices for their students in their communication going home with students or on their Facebook pages for the schools. They often share photos on social media.”
Stella Arezza continues to be the top fundraiser and has collected $3,800 thus far. For further information visit the Kapuskasing Terry Fox Run Facebook page.
