This year’s MS Walk was a great success, bringing in more than $38,000.
The Enerflex MS Walk in Drumheller went on Sunday, May 6 at the Drumheller Memorial Arena. This year they boasted 99 walkers and 14 teams that took on the course with routes from 3 kilometres to 10 kilometres.
“This year’s walk was so successful because of the fabulous people involved. None of this could happen without the tremendous support,” said organizer Dianne Snyder.
In all, the walk raised $38,878.
Almost a tradition for the Enerflex MS Walk in Drumheller is the Peterson Pacers, and once again the eight-member squad was the top fundraising team.
The top individual fundraiser was Kevin Johnson. Snyder said the walk is important to Johnson as his father has MS. Johnson took on the course with wife Janna and their pooch Daisy.
Snyder said participants who have not received their prizes from the back of their envelopes, can contact the MS Society at 1-800-268-7582.
