7th Annual Walk-A-Thon - September 16, 2016
Our 7th Annual Walk-A-Thon fundraiser was our most
successful ever! The weather cooperated this year and it
was a perfect September day to enjoy walking, dancing to the
tunes of DJ Ace and barbecuing hot dogs. We were
joined by five wonderful volunteers from Scotiabank who
barbecued hundreds of hot dogs, ran the water station and
managed traffic. Thank you to everyone for your generous
pledges and donations and for helping us celebrate the day!
