Terry Fox
Description

The Park is home to a nine-foot bronze statue, set on a 45-ton granite base with a foundation of local amethyst, with breathtaking view of Lake Superior, and a visitor information centre. The statue was originally erected across the highway in memory of Terry Fox, the courageous one-legged runner who embarked on a cross-country run for cancer research- the Marathon of Hope, but was moved to its current location on October 1993. The site is 12 kilometers from where he was forced to ended his 5,342 km (3,339 mi) run, before the disease that ended his life on June 28, 1981
