Still time to join in Terry Fox Run

The Terry Fox Run in Fort Frances, hosted by the Church of the Holy Spirit, is set to go this Sunday at the Sorting Gap Marina and it’s not too late to pick up your pledge forms.
Forms are available at Safeway, The Place, Confederation College, Wilson’s Business Solutions, Energy Fitness, Canadian Tire, Rainycrest, and the post office.

Registration gets underway at 1 p.m., with warm-ups by Energy Fitness at 1:45 p.m. and the walk/run/stroll starting at 2 p.m.
This year’s theme is to “honor those who have past” and “celebrate those who have survived,” so organizers are encouraging everyone to come out and sign the board for a loved one and cheer on others.
There will be mile markers, pace bunnies, porta-potties, water stations and an escort car—all features to help everyone enjoy the event and to be safe and to be comfortable.
And don’t forget to come to the church building on Victoria Street beside the railroad tracks following the event.
The TOPS group from Devlin will be putting on a lunch and trophies for the top male, female and child fund-raisers will be awarded.
