Third Annual Commissionaires Ottawa
RUN FOR MILITARY FAMILIES
Ottawa-Petawawa: MAY 6-7, 2010

Lead Organizer and Sponsor Commissionaires Ottawa, in partnership with Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Petawawa, is preparing for the Third Annual RUN FOR MILITARY FAMILIES. Since 2008 we have raised nearly $70,000 in support of the Petawawa Military Family Resource Centre (PMFRC) and its mission – which is to enrich the lives of individuals and families of the military community through positive action, education and support.
As a direct result of the positive feedback and support we received from media, politicians, dignitaries, volunteers and citizens in Ottawa and throughout the Ottawa Valley in 2008 and 2009, the list of participants, donors and sponsors this year is already growing and we anticipate another successful outcome. We hope that we can count on your support this year.
For more information on donating, becoming a sponsor or learning more about this event visit the Commissionaires Ottawa website.
Important Notice: Deployment Support Centre Night Light Fire Hazard
12/3/2009
Due to a recent incident involving one of the night lights recently distributed during pre-deployment briefings, it is recommended that their usage be stopped immediately pending investigation.
This night light was 1 of the 381 that was circulated beginning on 19 Nov 09.
Although UL certified and having passed safety inspections for usage in Canada, this one unit appeared to have ignited and could have caused a fire. Although this event appears to be isolated, it is highly recommended that anyone in possession of this night light stop it's usage and return it to the DSC at the SSCC.
