Run for
Research
returns

THE FOURTH annual Lions Gate
Medical Research Foundation Run
**4’* Research is set for May 28.

Money raised by the run, co-
sponsored by the North Shore
News and other businesses, will go
to support medical research on the
North Shore, which has included
geriatric, kidney and diabetes
research, and evaluations of
Palliative and acute care treatment
for cancer patients and others.

“All the money (raised by the
run) stays in the community,’’ said
event organizer Jeannette Savard.

Last year, 355 walkers and run-
Mers raised $15,000. Because a
number of features have been add-
ed to this year’s race, Savard is
hoping to more than triple that
figure to $50,000.

This year’s race will also include
a swimming event, and organizers
say they are concentrating on get-
ting teams out to participate. A
team consists of a minimum of
four and a maximum of 10 run-
ners.

Individuals and teams may now
sollect lump-sum pledges, and a
prize will be awarded to the indi-
vidual or team with the most
pledges.

The Run ‘‘4’”’ Research includes
a 10-kilometre run, a 5-kilometre
walk for those who prefer not to
run, a 45-minute aerobics workout
and a one-hour swim.

The run, which starts and
finishes at the North Shore Winter
Club, includes all categories:
men’s, women's, junior, open,
masters’ and senior prize
categories.

Entry forms may be obtained
from the North Shore Winter
Club, the North Shore News, all
Lady Superstar Stores, and from
the Lions Gate Medical Research
Foundation office at Lions Gate
Hospital (call 984-4222 for infor-
mation).

Registration fee is $20 which in-
cludes a free T-shirt. Forms and
fee should be mailed to P.O. Box
