Terry Fox's brother and others are expected to arrive in Wawa today, as the Terry Fox National Ride of Hope rolls into town.
Meant to mark the 45th anniversary of Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope, the campaign sees Fox's brother, Darrell, and about seven others cycle 7000 kilometres with the aim of raising $1-million for innovative cancer research.
They left Vancouver on June 9th, stopped at the Terry Fox National Historic Monument in Thunder Bay on Monday, and reached Terrace Bay last night, with plans to stop in Wawa tonight - they're expected to reach St. John's on July 10th.
Update: JJAM FM News has been told that the Ride is expected to arrive in Wawa around 6 pm.
