On August 10, 2008, BC Ambulance Service (BCAS) Information Management staff member Russ Taggart and Ambulance Fleet Supervisor Don Lowther joined a group of 26 paddlers for a day trip down the Saanich Inlet and back to raise much needed funds for the Canadian Cancer Society, as part of the first Kayak for a Cure Victoria.
The group brought in just under $11,000.00 in donations, over $4,800.00 of which was raised by Don and Russ, thanks to the support of friends and colleagues. As a reward for meeting his fund-raising target of $2,000, Russ had the pleasure of having his hair shaved off in a sponsored head shave at BCAS Headquarters.
