2023 Terry Fox Run at Lakefield College School
The spirit of hope, perseverance, and community came alive at LCS as students, teachers, and staff united for a meaningful cause. The school played host to a Terry Fox Run on Saturday, September 16 by bringing together students in Grades 9 to 11 to honour the legacy of Canadian hero, Terry Fox, and raise funds for cancer research.
The event started with the students gathering in the Grove to learn about Terry Fox's inspiring journey. Decked out in their respective paper house colours, students then engaged in an enthusiastic cheer-off before making their way to the starting line. Participants set out to run or walk as many laps of the 1.7 km loop as possible within a 45-minute time frame to accrue points for their respective paper houses. Remarkably, the combined efforts of Grades 9 to 11 resulted in an astounding total of over 600 laps completed!
