This Saturday, Kawartha Downs will host a fund raiser for the Movember movement

.

A portion of program sales and a raffle plus donations will go to the Trot Magazine Movember team, raising money for prostate cancer awareness. Trot team member and Kawartha's announcer Evan Loucks will shave off his mustache as part of the fun.

According to the Canadian Cancer Society, one in every two Canadians will develop cancer at some point in their lives. Prostate cancer has the highest incident of any cancer in Canadian men - as one in seven will faced with it in their lifetime - and also one of the highest mortality rates.
