Twenty three participants joined Grace Sander for this yearly September event.

Grace was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 1998. She has since participated in two SuperWalks.

Three weeks before the event, she decided to set up the walk in Invermere; with the help of friends and family, this successful day brought in $3,000.

Thanks to everyone who came out for the walk. Thank you to all who pledged, and a special thank you to the sponsors. Keep your eyes open next summer when advertising will start for the next Walk for the Cure.
