As Canadian as the Stanley Cup and Maple Syrup is the fall gathering to raise money for cancer research by participating in the Terry Fox Run. Year-to-year, never missing a step, the citizens of Hall Beach eagerly joined in the effort.
The last weeks have seen door-to-door campaigning, bakes sales, and other fundraising activities. All the work culminated last Friday, when students enrolled in the Pre-Employment and NTEP Foundations Programs joined students from Arnaqjuaq School for the afternoon run through town. Lots of exercise, lots of money raised, and lots of fun, too!
