This
year our Lioness Club was unable to participate in the CIBC
Run for the Cure in Victoria. However, Lioness Gail N and
her husband, Lion Dave were on the Volendam on their way
to Japan. Holland America ships fundraise for the Komen
Foundation which supports breast cancer research in the
United States.

2008 Sunday,
October 5, 2008 - Sooke District Lionesses President Gail N, Tail Twister Jo B
and Secretary Sue W at the CIBC Run for the Cure at the University of Victoria.
We were again joined by Gail's sister, Robin (celebrating 3 1/2 years as a breast
cancer survivor) and her friend, Harry. Even though the day was a little drizzly,
we had fun and raised about $700.00 for breast cancer research.
