Race for the Cure Preperation

Metro Centre is the site for tomorrow's Race for the Cure.

Volunteers and sponsors spent the day setting up the stage as well as tents in preparation for the 20,000 people who are expected to participate in tomorrow's race.

So far, between seven and nine hundred people have signed up to help for the race.

Jordan Maricle, the Logistics Co-Chair has been on site all day preparing for the race.

"It takes a lot of volunteers. We start early in the morning with things being dropped off. The stage came early, our tents arrived, we have a lot of man power that goes into it. We'll finish things up and hopefully will be able to head out of here fairly soon", said Maricle.

The race kicks off at seven fifty-five tomorrow, and the opening ceremony begins at seven.
