Running for Hope: Join Us for the Annual Terry Fox School Run/Walk Day!

This year marks the 44th anniversary of when Terry Fox first dipped his artificial leg in the Atlantic Ocean and began his Marathon of Hope. He ran an average of 42 kilometers a day through six provinces to raise awareness and money for cancer research.

This year we will continue what Terry Fox started 44 years ago with our annual Terry Fox School Run/Walk Day held on Friday, September 27th @ 2:00pm starting with a presentation in the gym. We welcome all family members to join us!

To show our support in the fight against cancer, please wear a Terry Fox or Canadian symbol t-shirt, or anything red or white on Friday, September 27th.

If you would like to donate to the Terry Fox Foundation you can go online to our school’s online fundraising page https://schools.terryfox.ca/ElkPointElementary
