Gary's Walk

Billboard up at Royal Columbian Hospital again!

It's April, time to start thinking of what activity you would like to do for Gary's Virtual Walk! Elsie (named after Garys' mom) has checked on the bench, and hopefully inspired you to post your activity with #garyswalk2021 to any of our social media:)

A collage to inspire your activity for April!! Choose anything Gary would have done as an activity and post with #garyswalk2021

For the month of April, 2021 we have decided to do a virtual walk to accommodate the covid limitations. A virtual walk is a real walk, but on your terms: You get choose your own course, what time you start, and who walks next to you! The walking is realit's the community that's virtual. To inspire you we have put together a picture collage of activities that Gary enjoyed, so you can choose your activity as well. All we ask is that you post a picture to our Facebook, Instagr...am, or Twitter using the hashtag below and let us all enjoy your activity. #garyswalk2021 Donating to Gary’s walk is the same. Just go to RCH Foundation or click on the link on our website. This year 2021, RCH will be buying a new scope with the money raised through Gary's Walk. This scope will be used for a medical endoscopic procedure called, Argon plasma coagulation (APC). It is used to control bleeding from certain lesions in the gastrointestinal tract and administered during esophagogastroduodenoscopy or colonoscopy. It is an endoscope that sends argon gas with an electric current to heal the lesion.
