Rockwood Terry Fox Run will run on September 18

The annual Terry Fox Run organizing committee here is busy planning this year’s run on Sept. 18.

Last year it exceeded its expectations by raising over $10,000. Local schools chipped in $1,200 and other community donations totaled $1,000.

That makes the total raised last year over $12,000, and total donated to the run from Rockwood over $102,000.

Organizers thanked all participants.

This year’s run starts at Waterside Park pavillion from noon until 2pm and winds though the streets of Rockwood.  The event is not a shotgun start, so participants are welcome to start any time.

The organizing committee from Stone United Church invites everyone to make this year’s run, our best ever.
