Local Terry Fox run raises $2,900 Dominique Milburn signal -star staff - The 29th annual Terry Fox Run was marked by beautiful weather and enthusiastic participants in Goderich, according to event organizer Monique Sykes. The sunny skies of Sept. 13 provided the setting for the annual run for cancer research that took 36 area participants along a marked course on the outskirts of Goderich, and all told, the event raised a cool $2,900. "It was a great day all around," said Sykes. "It went really well and we're hoping to get a few more people out next year, too." The Goderich nm is executed annual- ly thanks to the efforts of the Goderich Ki- nettes. This year, community sponsors like Lithwaite Apple Park, Zehrs, Food Basics, Pk_ :a Hut and Tim Hortons handed over sup- plies and refreshments, which meant that all proceeds from the run were sent directly to the Terry Fox Foundation. The Goderich District Collegiate Institute even got in on the cause, as student volunteers showed up to lend sup- port. Both ninners and cyclists, individually and as groups, took to the course, and even a few canine companions, too. The Terry Fox Run is a September staple, always taking place on the second Sunday after Labour Day. Area elementary schools are doing their part as well, with most hosting their own Terry Fox Run's for students this week.
