They are swimming across Sharbot Lake for the 9th time! The Procter sisters: Katie, Theresa and Becki,are going to be at it again. On the morning of Saturday, August 19, 2017, the group will swim approximately 3km from the docks at Sharbot Lake Provincial Park to the Oso Township Public Beach. The swim is estimated to take 1.5-2 hours to complete. They will be arriving at the OSO Township Public Beach around 11:00am, and hope to see you there! They are raising funds to support the fight against cancer. The money they raise will help the Canadian Cancer Society fund lifesaving cancer research, offer vital information on cancer, provide compassionate support services to people living with cancer and their families, and advocate for healthy public policies. With public support, they have raised more than $13,500 in the past eight years!
