Garry Fearon "Rings
the Bell"
at Great Lake Walk finishing line.
On Saturday, 18th September 2004
Lake Cowichan again hosted the now famous "Great Lake Walk"
This 56 kilometer event traverses Cowichan Lake and draws hundreds
of runners, joggers and recreational hikers. The event is a great
opportunity for groups such as the Youbou TimberLess Society to
raise funds. This year, the YTS was represented by member Garry
Fearon who collected pledges of over $900.00. Garry's effort was
outstanding and truly appreciated by every member of the YTS.
A recreational walker, Garry completed the 56 klms in a little
over eight hours and showed very little discomfort at the finish
line. Never a shy person, Garry was quite matter of fact about
saying he reckons he can handle the walk for at least the next
ten years.
