What a beautiful way to start Canada Day this year! At 6:30am this morning 35 walkers, 4 runners and 1 cyclist gathered to listen to Craig Hooper read an excerpt from Bridget Moran's book, Stoney Creek Woman, and then follow Mary John's footsteps, the creek's 14km stretch, between Saik'uz G&F Market and the Vanderhoof Community Museum. Participants caught the bus at the Museum at 6:15 and owner/driver Harold Giesbrecht provided a bus ride up to the start. Making it quite convenient to take time in the morning to enjoy nature and recognize Mary John's remarkable contribution to society.
