The 15th annual Etobicoke MS Walk was another great success this year! 619 walkers braved the cold, rain & snow to raise $151,164 to end MS.
Walkers were cheered on by Toronto Argonauts Cheerleaders and Argonauts Jeff Johnson and Chad Remple. The Toronto Firefighters’ Association brought a fire truck for the kids to play on and had it mark the start of the 5km and 10km routes with a big HONK of the horn.
After 12 years as Chair of the Etobicoke MS Walk, Nadine Bertola will be retiring from the committee. Her passionate leadership has transformed the Etobicoke MS Walk into the incredible event it is today. Her contributions include sourcing great prizes and gift bags full of goodies as well as implementing the Kick-Off Event at Plant World and Celebrity Server Night at Kelsey’s. Nadine has worked tirelessly to ensure all who attend have a great time. Thank you Nadine for your dedication and passion. You will be greatly missed. The MS Society wishes you the best of luck on your next adventure.
