Dear Parents:
At Crestwood we are proud of the commitment we have made to Community Service in the past. We are beginning the 2022-2023 school year with our annual Terry Fox Walk/Run, which will take place during the day on FRIDAY, September 23rd, 2022.
Students should be in their House t-shirts, Crestwood gym shorts or track pants and running shoes for the walk/run.
All classes will participate with their teachers, along with Ms. Brenzel, Mr. Cooper, and Ms. Louch.
The goals of our Terry Fox Walk/Run are fun, fitness and fund raising for the Terry Fox Foundation for Cancer Research. Last year we raised $8,118.36. Congratulations Crestwood School! Since 1995 we have raised $ $229,951.34 for Cancer research.
Our school’s fundraising link is:

We will continue collecting money until Monday, October 14th, 2022. Students must be reminded that while collecting pledges is an important part of this activity, they should ask family members and friends for a commitment. The amount of the pledge is not important; all donations are meaningful.
Terry set goals every day. It’s great to see students follow in his footsteps and do their best to reach their personal goals, whether it is to increase their endurance or speed while participating in the run.
The pandemic threw us a curveball with many unexpected changes and challenges, students and educators responded with the kind of effort that would have made Terry proud. The commitment shown by our school community exemplifies Terry’s spirit and courage.
We regret to inform parents and guardians that this event is for our student body ONLY.
Sincerely,
Sherri Brenzel, Event Coordinator
