First 10 of '10 Supports KidsFest

Many thanks to everyone who helped us welcome in the new year with our first 10 of '10 run. Chef Louis and team delivered once again serving up another fantastic breakfast! Thanks as well to everyone for their generous toonie bin contributions, which raised $225.80 for KidsFest - a program that promotes reading and running to children living at or below the poverty line. Aerobics First was so impressed with this support, they immediately matched it. So in total, this event helped contribute $450 to this worthwhile program.
