Rotary Club of Tsawwassen once again hosts annual cancer fundraiser

More than 200 came out to the annual Terry Fox Run in Tsawwassen Sunday.

Official registration was in the 150 range but a headcount determined there were about 250 to 300 people taking part in the cancer fundraiser, noted Leslie Abramson, one of the organizers of the event, which is put on annually by the Rotary Club of Tsawwassen.

"We felt it went really well. We were really pleased to see the turnout," she said.

About $7,500 was raised, she said Monday, adding that figure will go up in the coming days.

The South Delta Terry Fox Run included five and 10-kilometre routes, both of which started and finished in the parking lot of the Tsawwassen Town Centre Mall.

It was damp in the morning but it didn't rain. Abramson said over 40 Rotarians volunteered at the event.

"It was just an overall good day," she said.
