2015 Journey for Sight (Journey for Sight Facebook page).
A group of snowmobilers are riding the province not just for fun, but for good as well.
They’re on a 'Journey for Sight', an annual fundraiser for the Lion’s Eye Bank. The money raised goes towards corneal transplantation, research, and education.
Organizer Ian Mullin says he and 20 others from Flin Flon are meeting the snowmobile group from Thompson, today:
"From there we’ll end up in The Pas tonight when it’s all said and done. Thursday we’ll travel from The Pas down to Swan River, spend the night in Swan River, then Friday we split up in two groups. One goes towards Dauphin and the other group goes to Roblin-Russel".
The final destination is Brandon, where snowmobilers from the South will join. This is the 32nd annual ride, with around $100,000 raised every year.
