Terry Fox alive.<br \/>\nAround one hundred participants gathered behind the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre early Sunday morning for the annual Terry Fox Run for Hope, walking, running, or cycling two or five kilometer routes to raise both funds and awareness for cancer research.<br \/>\nThough official numbers are yet to come in, donations have exceeded the $15,000 mark for the run site.<br \/>\nLocal band Willin\u2019 and Abel provided the soundtrack for the day, as well as the national anthem.<br \/>\nThe organizers would like to thank all of the volunteers involved in making the day a success.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\"
