The Ā鶹¾«Ń” Walk for ALS saw 210 people attend the fundraising event to end amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

The volunteer led fundraiser took place at Waterfront Park - Island Stage for people of all ages.

Participants had the opportunity to take part in a 50/50 draw, silent auction, a BBQ and games for kids.

ā€œWe raised several thousand dollars on the Silent Auction and CarBBQ. All the funds raised goes directly to patient care in our province,ā€ said a spokesperson for ALS.

All proceeds go towards ALS to reach the fundraising goal of $32,000.
