Rosseau Lake College Hosts Terry Fox Run on September 19th

 

On Sunday, September 19/04, Rosseau Lake College will host a Terry Fox Run in support of cancer research. The run will start on the main campus of the College at 10:00am. After participants complete the eight kilometer route, they will be treated to the outstanding, traditional Sunday brunch
at the school.

Participants are encouraged to collect pledges for their contribution to the cancer research. There is no entry fee for the event and if someone wishes to participate and has no pledges, they are asked to make a donation to the cause.

The route is a scenic, eight kilometer loop that starts on the main campus of the College and goes through Muskoka Woods trails out to Muskoka Road
#3. It then returns to Rosseau along #3 to Hwy #141 and into the College main entrance. The finish line is close to the dining hall, where the brunch is served. The route makes a good run or a pleasant walk. There will be volunteers along the route making sure no one takes a wrong turn. Water will be available at the start, the half way  point and at the
finish.

Terry Fox Run tee shirts will be available for purchase, with proceeds adding to the funds raised for cancer research.

This is the third year Rosseau Lake College has hosted a Terry Fox event and is expecting over 80 participants who will add to the $6,000+ already
raised from past events.

  So lace up your running or walking shoes, collect some good pledges and join the fun and exercise at Rosseau Lake College for the Terry Fox event.
