Terry Fox Run set for Sept. 13
The 29th Annual Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research will take place in Orangeville on Sunday, September 13.
Last year's 145 participants raised $10,784. This was done with the assistance of many volunteers and the support from Watermaker, Zehrs, Metro, Sobey's Price Chopper, No Fills, Dods & NcNair and Orangeville Window and Doors.
Once again, residents in the Orangeville area will have an opportunity to participate with others around the world in the Terry Fox Run.
The Orangeville Run site will be the same as in past years, with the start and finish being Tony Rose Memorial Sports Complex. The course is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will be a 10 km and a 5 km route which are accessible to runners, walkers, cyclists, in-line skaters and wheelchairs.
Limited numbers of the 2009 t-shirts will be available at the Run. The cost is $17 for adult sizes and $15 for children's sizes.
Pledge forms are available at several locations including: Scotiabank, TD-Canada Trust branches, Bank of Montreal, LCBO, grocery stores, Watermaker, BookLore, Moccaberry, medical offices, Sanderson Sports and Esso gas stations.
