36th Annual Walk for Hearts This Weekend

On Sunday, it’s the 36th Annual Walk for Hearts, in support of the First Open Heart Society of BC. 

Their primary function is to raise money to provide financial assistance to heart patients to travel to Vancouver, Victoria, and beyond for treatments, surgeries, and appointments related to cardiac care, with their main focus on children.

Sunday’s Walk for Hearts is a fun, family walk, from Willow Point Hall north along the Sea Walk, and back. There’ll also be refreshments, prizes & more.

Over the years, the event has raised more than $357,000 for cardiac patients locally. This year’s walk is dedicated to Bill Jeffrey and Karen Hawkins, both of whom passed away recently. They’ll also be paying tribute to Chuck Saults and Skip McDonald.

Registration is at 12:30pm, the walk starts at 1pm, and tax receipts will be provided.

To register or for more information, phone 250-287-3096 or visit Walk for Hearts.
