Terry Fox School Run Goes Next Thursday
 

 The 12th annual Terry Fox School Run is slated for next Thursday, September 28 and the school is busy getting ready for this always rewarding event.
 Time flies, but it was just over a decade ago when the staff and students at NMC decided to go all out and continue the run, which hadn't been held at the school for many years. In an outstanding effort, this little high school in Manitou became the #1 fundraiser in the province of Manitoba for the year 2005, raising over $13,000. That year the school was featured on CKY News as over a dozen staff and students shaved or dyed their hair for the cause of cancer research, Since this time, the school has been proud to be a part of the Terry Fox School Run, in total raising more than $50,000 in donations to the Terry Fox Foundation.
 According to NMC run coordinator Grant Caldwell, "It's a great way to start the school year on a positive note as the kids have a chance to learn about one of our true Canadian heroes, get some exercise, and raise some money for a great cause."
All students now have pledge sheets so if you would like to donate to a great cause contact any NMC student. Pledges can also be collected online at www.terryfox.org, just follow the school link to Nellie McClung Collegiate under the link "Terry Fox School Run".
