Confederation Bridge to host Terry Fox Run again in 2010


Confederation Bridge to host Terry Fox Run again in 2010

[]
In recognition of the 30th anniversary of Terry Fox's ‘Marathon of Hope’; Confederation Bridge, in partnership with the Terry Fox Foundation, is pleased to announce the return of the Terry Fox Run at the Bridge on September 19, 2010. As a result the Bridge will be closed 6:00am – 1:00pm on the day of the Run.

2010 will mark the second time the Confederation Bridge has hosted the Terry Fox Run. The event was previously held in 2005 to commemorate the Run’s 25th Anniversary, attracting 14,000 participants and raising $375,000 for cancer research. It was recognized as the largest single Terry Fox Run in the history of the event for both participation and funds raised.

Everyone is invited to join us on the Bridge on September 19th, 2010 as we continue to support Terry’s dream and the fight against cancer. Don’t miss your chance to experience this unique Run that is sure to be another historical, record-breaking event.

Pre-registration for the 30th Anniversary Terry Fox Run at the Confederation Bridge is mandatory and available online only. For more information please visit www.terryfox.org.
