Run organizers needed Ten years ago this summer Terry Fox ran into the hearts of Ontarians everywhere in his ef- fort to raise much-needed funds for cancer research. This year, as we commemorate the 10th An- niversary of Terry's Marathon of Hope, we look to communities. both small and large, to continue the legacy of hope that Terry left us. Port Perry did not host a com- munity Run in 1989 so we are seeking an individual, family or group to step forward this year and organize a Terry Fox Run on Sunday September 16. With your support we can continue to fund reseachers in their vital work of finding a cure for cancer - a disease that this year will take the lives of 35,000 Canadians. Please call 1-800-387-1200 for information about how to get involved in the 1990 Terry Fox Run, a ITT EET o_y~
