Community out to run for Terry Fox
September 30, 2015 · 0 Comments
The spirit of Terry Fox was well represented last Sunday in communities all over the world, including this one. The Rotary Club of Palgrave held their annual run, and club President Jim Firth said the effort raised $8,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation. Tina Haller was leading the warm-up before the Palgrave run.
Last Sunday was a great day for a walk, as these people demonstrated on Chapel Street in Bolton. The run was put on by the Bolton Kinsmen. Kinsman John Stegeman said there were about 90 people out, and the effort raised about $12,000.

Palgrave Rotarians were also busy preparing breakfast for the runners. Working in the chip wagon were Sandra Tomona, Doug Nicholson, Warren May and Cheryl May.
