The YMCA of Simcoe-Muskoka has announced that it plans to sell Geneva Park on Lake Couchiching because of financial hardships caused by the pandemic. The park has been in the YMCA family for more than 100 years.
We're excited to announce that 25,000 participants united for this year's #CIBCRunfortheCure and raised $8.5M! As a collective, we walked about 115,000 km – that's like going around the world nearly 3X! THANK YOU. Together, we're a FORCE-FOR-LIFE in the face of breast cancer.
TODAY'S the Canadian Cancer Society #CIBCRunfortheCure! Join our live-streamed opening ceremony at 11:30AM ET.
