Great Strides 2008!

This year Darren and I decided that we wanted to go full force and take part in the annual CF Great Strides walk. Seeing that I have new lungs - and all due to the tremendous support shown to the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CCFF), its CF clinics, and transplant centres - this was my time to shine! 

Great Strides: Taking Steps to Cure Cystic Fibrosis is the CCFF's largest national fundraising event. Thousands of co-workers, friends and family come together each year as one commnity for one cause ... to help find a cure for CF!

This year's walk in St. John's, NL is taking place on May 28, 2008 at Pippy Park. Although we're still in Toronto and not expected home until the first week of June, we decided to start a 'virtual team' and go ahead and raise the much needed funds anyhow! We've invited friends and family to come on board - either by joining thoes at the walk on May 28 or joining our virtual team! So what are you waiting for?? The more the merrier!!
