<br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">The Orillia Terry Fox Run Committee is working hard on all the details for the annual Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research. The theme this year is "working together to outrun cancer". This theme describes what happens every year in Orillia - the community comes together and assists us in hosting this event - we have donations of prizes, supplies, food and drink from businesses in our area - and we have hundreds of participants who run, walk, ride, blade and who bring their pledges and donations. We come together every year and raise much needed funds for cancer research.</span></div><span style="font-family:arial;"><div>
<br />Please consider joining us this year - Sunday, September 18th at 1pm in Orillia at Terry Fox Circle in Couchiching Beach Park. Registration begins at 11:30am. There is no entry fee, no minimum pledge and the event is non-competitive. We have a 1km route, a 5km route and a 10km route along our beautiful waterfront trail.</div>
<br />Come and join some wonderful people for a walk in the park!
