Apologies to my donors for the late update, but I’m excited to announce the winners of the first round Tour Alberta for Cancer raffle draw: Liz Fox is the winner of the first pair of socks, while Howard Fiderer won the stuffed gnome! Thanks to their generous donations and the contributions of many others, I’m at over $1100 of my $2500 goal and slowly climbing!
But don’t despair, there’s still two more draws to come for a pair of socks!
