Rosemont is Running for Terry – October 2

The excitement for our Terry Fox Run is building, and we are inspired by this year’s motto: Finish It!

  • Date:  Thursday, October 2
  • Location:  Our school will be heading to Confederation Park for the Terry Fox Run.

But We Need Your Help!

For this event to run smoothly at Confederation Park, we need a strong team of volunteers. 

Without enough volunteers, we will not be able to host the run as planned.

Please consider signing up to help us make this important day a success.

Following the run, families are invited to join us back at Rosemont School for a picnic lunch from 12:30-1:10.

Thank you for your continued support of this important tradition. Together, we can honour Terry’s legacy and Finish It!

We are collecting Toonies for Terry to help support cancer research up until the Run Day at the school or donate on-line and receive a tax receipt.
