A beautiful day greeted the 175 participants taking part in the Cancer Walk which is in its 21st year. With on-line contributions included, $71,000 had been collected by the end of the walk. Donors can still contribute until December 15 by going to www.fondationbmp.ca

Laura Hernandez’ gentle yoga class was much appreciated by the twelve attendees, some of whom were survivors. They really felt that they were participating even though they didn’t walk. It was a first and a success.

Also, Heather Padner was a star once again as she collected $6,000 for the cause. Congratulations to all the organizers and sponsors and to everyone that came out.
