RUDOLPH HENNIG DOES IT AGAIN!
On April 12, 1980, Terry Fox began his journey across Canada. His goal was to raise 24 million dollars for cancer research, $1 for every Canadian. Terry ran 5,373 KM before he was unfortunately forced to stop when the cancer had returned and spread to his lungs. Before his death, he met his fundraising goal, but the work did not stop there!
Every year, participants across Canada and the world continue Terry’s Marathon of Hope. On September 26, 2024, RHJ participated in its annual Terry Fox Run, continuing Terry’s mission of fundraising for cancer research. Mr. Reid’s homeroom 91 raised $4106.75! This class went above and beyond, in their free time going door to door in their communities to raise the money. The students were rallied by Mr. Reid, who emphasized the importance of giving back and being leaders in the school. They hope the money will be useful for cancer research.

City of Fort Saskatchewan Launches Family Violence Prevention Month Campaign
Fort Saskatchewan, AB, October 15, 2024 – This November, the City of Fort Saskatchewan, alongside the Fort Saskatchewan Family Violence Prevention Coalition, will lead a campaign to bring attention to the often-overlooked issue of family violence. The theme, “The Elephant in the Room,” aims to break the silence surrounding family violence and empower the community with resources and support.
“Family violence is a subject many are reluctant to discuss,” said Melissa Kondro, Community Development Coordinator for the City of Fort Saskatchewan. “Our goal is to bring it out of the shadows, create awareness, and encourage those affected to seek help.”
Key Events and Public Installation
Throughout November, the City will host a series of workshops and a public art installation, including:
- Public Workshop: Immigration Resources (Nov 6)
- Lunch & Learn: Protecting Your Employees (Nov 12)
- Workshop for Support Services: Navigating Family Court & Civil Orders (Nov 19)
- “The Elephant in the Room” Installation: Featuring a life-sized Paper Mache elephant at City Hall and crocheted purple elephants contributed by locals.
For more information on events and to register for workshops, visit fortsask.ca/FVPM.
Get Involved
Residents are encouraged to participate by attending a workshop, visiting the installation, or contributing crocheted elephants for display. Family Violence Prevention Month is part of a larger province-wide initiative to raise awareness and offer support to those affected.
