16th Annual Do-It-For-Dad Run/Walk to Fight Prostate Cancer
Teamwork and dedication to the cause are major factors
in the ongoing success of the VJH Foundation’s Do it
For Dad event held each Father’s Day at Coldstream
Ranch. Now in its 16th year, the annual run & walk
to support local men with prostate cancer has raised
$322,222 since its inception.
Presented by
Last year’s event saw the winners in the two fundraising
categories bring in nearly a quarter of the total amount
of the $33,372 that was raised. Long-time supporter
and top individual fundraiser Marnie MacKenzie raised
$3,065, while top team fundraisers, Doreen’s T-Bags
raised $5,100 in memory of their friend and the 2013
individual top fundraiser Doreen Hourie, who passed
away in February 2014.
More than 350 people come out faithfully each year to
honour the fathers and men in their lives by raising funds
to fight prostate cancer right here in our community.
Like the origin of Father’s Day, ‘Do It For Dad’
was established as a tribute to fathers. The event was
founded in 1999 by then-MLA, Dr. April Sanders,
who wanted to raise community awareness of prostate
cancer and the need for early diagnosis and treatment.
Dr. Sanders remains committed and involved with the
planning of ‘Do It For Dad’ and is the Honorary Chair
of this year’s event.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among
Canadian men, (excluding non-melanoma skin cancers)
and is the third leading cause of death from cancer in
men in Canada. About 1 in 7 Canadian men is expected
to develop prostate cancer during his lifetime and 1 in
28 will die from it.
Participant Bobbe MacKenzie, organizer Ed Eyford and
top individual fundraiser Marnie MacKenzie
at the 2014 Do it For Dad Run & Walk
This year’s funds will provide free prostate-specific
antigen (PSA) tests for North Okanagan men, as well as
help purchase equipment for the treatment of prostate
cancer at Vernon Jubilee Hospital.
The event is community-oriented, featuring children’s
activities sponsored by the Interior Savings promo
team, Face Painting by Christine Turpin, the Kalamalka
Highlanders Pipe Band, Kalamalka Caring Klowns and
a light lunch donated by SUBWAY. There is also a
competitive spirit involved, with prizes awarded to the
top three men’s and women’s finishers, as well as the
top team and individual fundraisers for the event. Winning Team Doreen’s T-Bags raised more than $5,000 at last
year’s event
Registration for the 16th Annual Do It For Dad Run &
Walk presented by Interior Savings takes place Father’s
Day, June 21st, at Coldstream Ranch at 8:30 am with
the Walk/Run starting at 9:30 am. Registration fees are
$10 for youth 15 years and younger and $20 for adults
16 years and older. Raise $50 in pledges to waive one
registration fee. Awards will be given to the team and
individual that raises the most money. Local businesses
have also generously donated prizes for our draws for
dads, race participants and volunteers. Pledge forms will be available May 15 at Interior
Savings, SUN FM, Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation.

A Lifetime of Giving
Growing up in a serene neighbourhood with a
supportive family might not prepare some children
for the harsh realities of life, but for Rob and Laura
Tedham, it was the perfect foundation that gave them
the resolve and dedication to help others.
Life-long volunteers, Rob and Laura have seen
the other side of life from a local and international
perspective.
Rob and Laura Tedham
“I began volunteering with a youth organization in a rough Calgary
neighbourhood,” says Rob. “My childhood was peaches and cream so it was hard
to see kids who hadn’t eaten breakfast or lunch and would be going home to a
turbulent household or an empty home.”
Rob established careers in real estate development, the airline industry and
investment business, while his wife Laura was a homemaker and proprietor of a
ladies’ apparel retail store. Despite their busy schedules, the couple has always been
actively involved in supporting a number of charitable and volunteer organizations.
“We have been blessed to be born in this country and in this part of the country.
With that comes a strong responsibility to give time and money to help those in
need and to teach our children about these things,” says Rob.
In addition to raising two daughters and a son, the Tedhams cared for many
‘bonus’ children.
“We were the house in the neighbourhood that had the open door. At any given
time we would have one or two extra kids. Their parents cared, but couldn’t cope
or just needed some space. We were the time-out zone for the parents and the
kids,” says Rob.
Some of the youth stayed with the Tedhams for years and are still part of their lives.
One girl moved in at age 11, and now grown, is part of the family to this day.
“It was a blessing to us,” says Laura. We enjoyed them and having them part of
the family.”
In 2008, Rob and Laura travelled with friends and clients to Liberia, to help install
water filtration systems in a country which had suffered the ravages of civil war.
“It turned out to be the best of any travel experience we have ever had,” says
Rob. “We saw how this could literally be the difference between a tortured life
and a sustainable life. The people were always sick with constant ‘runny tummy,’
headaches, lower back pain, and bacterial and viral infections.”
Laura adds, “What happens is you go over with a preconceived notion that you are
going to give to people in need and bless their lives. But then you find that you
have been humbled, you have been blessed, and you realize how much excess we
accumulate compared to how little they have.”
The Tedhams, who frequently visited the Okanagan for more than 45 years,
permanently relocated to Vernon in 2012.
“It was always the plan to move here when we retired,” says Laura. “It was just
like coming home. Everything here is beautiful; the climate, scenery, activities and
the people.”
Not long after officially making the move, Rob became involved in with the Vernon
Jubilee Hospital Foundation when he was invited to join the Building a Tower of
Care, Phase II Campaign Team.
“I wanted to be involved in something that would add to the well-being of the
community at large,” he says.
In addition to Rob’s volunteer commitment to the campaign, the Tedhams have
generously contributed a $6,000 gift that will help furnish and equip the top two
floors of Polson Tower at VJH.
“We need services and facilities that tax revenue doesn’t pay for. We have to
supplement tax money with community giving and what could be more important
than health care?” says Rob.
“We are all one doctor’s appointment away from bad news. We have a responsibility
to contribute if the money is cared for with great stewardship as is the case with
VJH Foundation.”
The Tedhams’ example of voluntarism and philanthropy demonstrates the
importance of community giving. Although sometimes the need seems greater
than the ability to give, Laura recalls a valuable lesson learned from her experience
in Africa.
“I met a Liberian woman who had returned to reclaim what was left of her property
before the war. I felt that we had done so little to help. But the woman said to
me, ‘it takes one drop of water at a time to fill a bucket. If everyone contributes a
little bit, eventually the bucket gets full.’”
Okanagan Landing Volunteer Firefighters
Association Leaves Lasting Impact on Community
Although the Okanagan Landing Volunteer Firefighters Association has disbanded,
their generosity and service to the community will have a lasting presence in the
North Okanagan. The story of the Association began decades ago in the 1970s,
when the Okanagan Landing area was without fire protection services.
“Okanagan Landing was part of the Regional District,” explains founding member
Ed Forslund. “With no fire protection in the area, a group of six men who had
trained with the Vernon Volunteer Fire Department realized the need for fire
protection.”
Answering a newspaper ad for volunteer firefighters, Forslund attended a meeting
that would be the start of a 40-year involvement with the Association, including 10
years serving as chief.
In 1974, with funding from the Regional District, a 25-man brigade volunteered
their time to build the hall on Okanagan Landing Road.
“We always did as much as we could with volunteer help,” says Forslund. “We took
on janitorial tasks as well as maintenance of the grounds and building. Our goal
was always to provide the best possible service for the least amount of cost to the
community.”
In addition to offering fire protection services, the Association supported community
events. Forslund notes that there were two parts to the department which worked
hand in hand to create not just community safety, but community cohesion.
“We had the brigade consisting of the Chief, Deputy Chief, Captains, Lieutenants
and Firefighters and we also had the Association side with a President, Vice
President, Secretary and Directors to take care of the social events.”
Throughout the years, the group was involved in the community helping out
with the OK Landing Elementary School annual Kids Fun Day, presenting the
Hallowe’en fireworks display and running the pancake breakfast at the Paddlewheel
Park Regatta. The Association also provided scholarships and funded causes to fight
cancer and kidney disease.
“It was a great way to connect with the community, keep morale positive, and get
to know our neighbours. We were a big part of the community and in some ways,
the cornerstone,” says Forslund.
In the early ‘90s when the City of Vernon and OK Landing amalgamated, the
Association formed a non-profit society, providing contracted services to the City.
Okanagan Landing resident and Okanagan Landing & District Community
Association board member, Murray Hainer, notes the OK Landing Volunteer
Firefighters Association was one of the most successful volunteer firefighting
associations in the province. “Theirs was one of the most active departments in BC, with 150 members over the
years. Community volunteer members displayed a wide variety of personal skills
and expertise, and served professionally with an average tenure of ten years. They
never had a problem recruiting.”
When their contract wasn’t renewed in 2012, members took on the task of dissolving
the Association, transferring funds to non-profits throughout Vernon.
“As a non-profit society, the
department never took practice
pay. Everyone donated it back
to the hall,” says long-serving
member Len Ganz. “We looked at
a number of worthwhile charities
and narrowed it down, eventually
choosing five based on the impact
it would have for the community.”
The association has generously
donated $45,000 to the Vernon
Jubilee Hospital Foundation in support of patients at the McMurtry-Baerg Cancer
Centre and the Tower of Care campaign, Phase II.
Twenty thousand dollars has been allocated to the purchase of eight therapy chairs
at the McMurtry-Baerg Cancer Centre. Chemotherapy treatments can take up
to eight hours per session for some patients. The chairs not only provide patient
comfort, but ease of access for medical staff administering treatments.
The remaining $25,000 will help equip and furnish a room on one of the top
floors of Polson Tower, improving healthcare for generations of North Okanagan
residents, with state-of-the-art care, enhanced infection control, and increased
patient capacity, comfort and safety.
While disappointed with the demise of the Okanagan Landing Volunteer Firefighters
Association, Forslund says he is proud of the organization he served with for nearly
four decades and that they are able to help so many groups.
A total of $187,000 was given back to community to support many worthwhile
causes benefitting residents of the North Okanagan.
