Plans are underway for Sylvan Lake’s community-wide Terry Fox Run which will be held Sunday, Sept. 16.
Organizer Rae-Anne Ornella said the event will begin at Leader Field on Lakeway Boulevard with registration at 8:30 a.m. and a start at 9 a.m. There’s no entry fee and no minimum donation.
Registration and pledges may be done through the website www.terryfox.org/Run.
Inspired by a dream, grounded in tradition, volunteer-driven, this will be the 32nd anniversary of Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope.
In the seven years that Sylvan Lake has participated in the event, a total of $20,596.61 has been raised, according to Rhonda Risebrough, provincial director of the Terry Fox Foundation. To date the Terry Fox Foundation has raised over $600 million for cancer research.
