PALMERSTON – Palmerston Terry Fox run organizers are looking for a community volunteer to take over coordinating the local event – this year to be held Sept. 15.
Palmerston has been a proud supporter of Terry’s dream, “Working Together to Outrun Cancer,” hosting events since 1981, organizers state in a press release.
Eight years ago it appeared the event might not continue. Then Stan Freeland and members of the Williamson family stepped in to keep it going.
The following year the Williamson family assumed coordinating responsibilities and have continued to do so for an additional seven years.
“It is now time for us to hand over the reins. Please know that it is imperative that someone comes forward, or the Palmerston event will sadly be cancelled, and that would be a shame,” the release states.
