May 27, 2018 | 6:55 AM

A multi-day walk to raise money for the Canadian Fallen Firefighters Foundation is starting in Grande Prairie.

Northern Sunrise County Deputy Fire Chief Julien Bergeron will be walking 220 km spanning four to five days.

“I have been selling at fire departments across the region, ten kilometres sections for $500 each with the end goal total of $10,000.”

His Northern Trek for CFFF will begin early next month and end in Peace River.

“It is going to be quite the journey, of course there is always the worry of not accomplishing but I have so much support.”
