I notice that people are still checking in. Update there hasn`t been any fund raising in a couple years. We reached our mandate of contributing to every dialysis unit in Newfoundland and Labrador. If there is a need for help contact us. We will kick it in gear. Thanks for all the years of support.

Me doing a bacteria test showing that thieves cleaner kills the bacteria and cleans like a boss. I have been using the thieves line of products in my home almos...t 3 years now and because of thieves I am a recovered germaphobe. Here is some awesome proof. Sorry for the 7 year old camera man! Also do some research about how bad household cleaners really are for your respiratory system. See more

With that said the corporation has decided to step back from fund raising. We thank all who supported us these past 10 years. We will be getting together in March for a fun day on the pond.

Hello Folks; It has been a fast 10 years since we set out to give a gift to every dialysis unit in Newfoundland and Labrador. The last gift of a treatment chair will be delivered to Happy Valley Goose Bay in November. This marks the end of the "Lilly Pond Derby for Dialysis" The Directors of the corporation have voted stop the fund raising efforts. We have had a lot of fun over the years. We would like to thank all the company's and individuals that sponsored our event every ...year. There are too many to list and I wouldn't want to make the mistake of leaving out someone. I must say there are some special company's that have sponsored us 10 years in a row with out hesitation. Thank you all! We would like to thank all the people who worked so hard. Our events would not have been successful with out you all. A big thank you to all the supporters. This marks the end of the DERBY FOR DIALYSIS. but I bet the yearly gathering on Lilly Pond will continue. On behalf of the Directors I thank you all. See you on the Pond. Ralph See more

Despite the Derby being cancelled on Sat ( March 11th), it went ahead on Sunday..high winds & cold temps did not interfere with the high spirits & generiosity of so many people who ventured across Victoria River with Everett Kinden & Sheldon Brown, the folks from Selby's Pond area, & all the cabins in Millertown. also not forgetting the "Good Ole Faithfuls" who travel from different parts of the island to participate in this wonderful fundraiser & outdoor activity!

Here is Allen and Anne Hancock receiving a picture by Debbie Porter. Allan is the inspiration for the Lilly Pond Derby for Dialysis. Cheers Allan. This year on the 10th anniversary we will have covered all the units in Newfoundland and Labrador.
