Well tomorrow is the Terry Fox Run here in Winnipeg. Earl is pumped and ready to go and I have mastered the IV antibiotic treatment so we will be there. Yesterday Earl spoke at and participated in the Terry Fox Run at Arthur A. Leach School where he attended Jr High. He did a great job encouraging the students and staff to be enthusiastic about the run and actually completed the 3km distance himself (with the help of his good friend Torey.) He used his crutches and a wheelchair and was very proud of himself for making it.
To all team members,
We will be meeting at the Lyric Theater in Assiniboine Park at 8:45 tomorrow (Sunday September 16) Registration begins at 9:00, but I do believe you can register online also. Mayor Sam Katz will start the Run at 10:00
We are at home most of today preparing a banner and getting organized so call us if you have any questions.
Debbie, Earl and Darby
