Around 150 kids and a few parents took part in the annual Decker Lake Elementary School Terry Fox Run last Friday to show their support for family and friends who live with cancer.

During the 30-minute Run the kids separated into teams and did laps around the lower bowl of the school’s front yard.

After each lap the kids made eye contact and yelled out their name to their team coach who tallied up how many laps each student accomplished during the Run.

The Decker Lake Elementary School Terry Fox Run, which has been held at the school each September for the past 15 to 20 years, raised around $150 through student and parent donations this year for cancer eradication research projects.
