The run will take place in Southside Park on Sunday, September 14th.
WOODSTOCK - Southside Park will be a packed place for the 45th annual Terry Fox Run in the Friendly City
Event Chair John Versaevel says everyone will gather at the bandshell pavilion this Sunday.
"It's a really family-oriented day, so it's open to anyone and everyone. You can register at 9:00 a.m., and the run starts at 10:00 a.m., and there's no fee to enter."
You can participate in the 2.5K, the 5K, or the 10K community walk and run.
Versaevel says the funds raised go to the Terry Fox Foundation.
"It all goes towards cancer research. Terry's entire premise was that if we're going to solve these problems, it's going to be through research, so that's all that the foundation does."

Versaevel says the Woodstock Terry Fox Run has raised about $624,000 since 1980.
