Terry Fox Run

TERRY FOX RUN

Friday September 30^th 2016

Welcome back to the 2016-2017 school year! This year we’d like to hit the ground running, literally.  To celebrate Terry Fox and to bring awareness to cancer research, we would like see how many kilometres our kids can run collectively as a school. This can happen in many ways. Students can run individually or as a team (dress up in fun costumes, face paint, streamers etc). For those who wish not to jog/run, no worries, they can still participate and dress up! Those who do not run will be walking a 3km loop while our runners attempt to max out their totals on a (1-2 kms loop).  The walking totals would also be put towards our school’s collective goal! If there are any parents out there that would like to form a team to run together, to run with their child or even just to come out to join the cause, we’d love to have them! We will begin with an assembly in the gym at 10:10 am. We anticipate concluding the run 11:30 am at which time we will be selling some cold refreshing Freezies for $2.00 each. Proceeds from sale of the freezies will go directly to the Terry Fox Foundation.

Come on out and join us in getting some exercise while supporting a great cause!
