Terry Fox Runs taking place at dozens of area schools

Hundreds of local students will be taking part in Terry Fox School Runs over the next couple of weeks.  

They’re raising funds for cancer research.  

Dozens of area school fundraisers are registered on the Terry Fox Foundation website, from Almaguin to Mattawa to West Nipissing and all points in between. 

Chippewa Secondary School is holding its walk/run event on Thursday morning. 

The fundraising goal is $10,000.  

Officials say a pep rally before the event will highlight teacher and student challenges and achievements, with staff hair to be dyed, shaved and sculpted if a certain amount of money is raised.  

The school is also holding a fundraising barbecue after its run.  

Donations to schools or classrooms can be made online at www.terryfoxschoolrun.org
