We all said last year that 2016 was going to be the last Terry Fox Run we took care of but we&#8217;ve been unable to entice new people to take over. These people have said they&#8217;re not going anywhere. But it&#8217;s time to bring some new people and new thinking on board.<br \/>\n<cite>Bill Coon<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To run the race Coon said they need an organizing committee of six people.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;We need someone who is very social media savvy. That&#8217;s one thing we&#8217;ve identified. We don&#8217;t do well in connecting with the next level of Terry Fox-ers. We&#8217;re all strapped for time and you fit in what you can. Ideally the run organizer would be a retired person and then have committee members that are a nice mix of people. The commitment isn&#8217;t onerous, there are just certain things that need to get done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Coon said the current committee is willing to co-organize or step aside. &#8220;People of my generation have this memory of Terry Fox, we were alive and have this memory. The next generation have to learn about him. We need somebody in that age range who can help us connect with that next age group of Terry Fox supporters.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who is interested in joining the committee can contact Bill Coon anytime by email at bill@muskokamedical.com.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>This year&#8217;s Huntsville Terry Fox run takes place on Sunday September 17 at Huntsville High School.
