Editor’s Note: I donated $20 to this, and redeemed my ice cream token. It was cookies and cream flavoured.

COBDEN – The Terry Fox Run may have been Virtual, but that didn’t stop Cobden from raising $5000 in money.

Bonnie Helferty offered donors tokens that could be redeemed at The Scoop for one free ice cream cone.

The Scoop employee Emma Misener said they’d had 20 to 25 people redeeming tokens, when asked at about 1:30pm that day.

The offer was available from 11am to 2pm.

This is the 40th anniversary of Terry Fox’s famous run for cancer research.
