Super Cities Walk for MS heads to 7th annual event in Russell
The MS SuperCities Walk returns to Russell for the seventh year. On April 30 volunteers will gather at Pratt School and Waldl to start a 5 to 10 kilometer route at 2 pm to raise funds for MS research and support services. Registration is simple at Sears Canada on Main Street or online at www.supercitieswalk.com. Since 2000 the Russell event has grown from 34 walkers raising 4000 to a six year total of over 57 thousand with a peak 79 walkers and 17,578.36 in 2004. Organizers note steady but variable yearly totals and stress the walk's importance for local services, as northern communities do not receive United Way or provincial funding.
