I'd like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our community for your support of our Terry Fox fundraising campaign. We smashed our goal of $2500.00 and now I need to make good on my pledge. Between what has been donated online and other funds that were submitted at school, we have raised over $3000.00. The Terry Fox Foundation will leave our fundraising page open until Spring Break, so that total may rise still: https://schools.terryfox.ca/100280. If we look back over the past 30 years Cheam has participated in Terry Fox School Runs, our school has raised in excess of $45,000.00. Not too shabby for a tiny country school!
My pledge had been to run a personal marathon if we reach our goal. Time to lace up! I'm working on a route I'll call 'Around the 'Wack and Back'. I'll share the specific details as soon as I can. I am targeting November 14th as my run day. Stay tuned!
