The second annual Mount Gambier Melanoma March took place on Sunday 4 March, raising awareness and funds for melanoma research.

The event saw around 70 people march around the Blue Lake to remember those who sadly lost their battle against the common skin cancer and bring hope to others who are going through their treatment journey.

Tenison Woods College played a large part in the event, with teachers and staff part of the planning committee and even a group of year 12 students volunteering their time to assist at the community event.

Although attendance was lower than last year, online registrations and additional donations on the day saw an increase in fundraising from 2017, with $3,500 raised from the March.
