Yarker Community: Terry Fox Run

Sunday September 19th 2010 was the 30th Anniversary of the National Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research. This was the first time the residents of Yarker and Colebrook were able to be part of the activities without joining the events in Kingston and Napanee. The Yarker,Colebrook and District Community Association organised the event which attracted runners and walkers from the area. This year the participants included cancer survivors who showed how much progress is being made in the fight against the disease. The group raised over $650.00 for research through pledges and sales of T-shirts and shoe laces. Thank you to all who participated in the event.
