In Honour of Jesse Fredericks

The Run at the Ridge – “It Was a Wonderful Event”

Thank you to All Participants, Volunteers, Sponsors and Committe Members who invited us to be part of this special event.  We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful morning to join in with the Whyte Ridge Community to help us raise awareness for the SOY Foundation.  The sun was shining, families were smiling and eager to enjoy the fresh air and community spirit was  alive and strong; it was really something to see!   With the amazing volunteers and committee members helping everything run smoothly – from the hair painting,  refreshment stations, pancake breakfast with all the trimmings, silent auction and even homeade cookies passed out to all – the friendliness and generosity of this community helping community was in full force.  We gained strength from the crowd of over 1300 runners.    We can only succeed if our communities stand together to find solutions and provide support for Youth and Families struggling with the consequences of presciption drug abuse.  For us, as a family dealing with the devastating loss of our son Jesse, we understand the urgent need to bring awareness to all communities.   From our Hearts to Yours – Thank you White Ridge – for helping build a bridge of support in what is one of the greatest challenges our Youth are facing.

With Gratitude,

Linda and Dalton Fredericks
