The Bytown Boys Supporters Club from Ottawa will be participating in the 2015 Walk for Muscular Dystrophy, and they are looking for help in reaching their goal of raising $5000!

This is a charity that hits home for many members of the Bytown Boys, as member Dommie Raymond has muscular dystrophy, and the group are looking to help raise both money and awareness by participating in the charitable event. Dommie was a season ticket holder for both the Ottawa RedBlacks and the Ottawa Fury FC last season at TD Place, so her wide smile and furious passion is likely familiar to anyone who has spent time near the top of Section W.

The Bytown Boys have always been a very community based supporters group who looks to participate in both football related events as well as charitable activities, often mixing the two. Dommie, and her husband Eric, have enlisted the help of several members of BBSC and they will be participating in the 2015 Walk for Muscular Dystrophy on May 31st in Ottawa. Last season Bytown Boys raised money for local soccer charities as well as participating in the Community Cup with fellow Fury supporters group Stony Monday Riot.

Any support is greatly appreciated and there is no doubt that Dommie hopes we can raise as much money, and get as many people participating as possible. The Fury Family reaches very far in this community and these are the type of events we like to see the community pull together for!

You can join the Bytown Boys Supporters Club at Ottawa Fury matches in Section W, where they make noise with Stony Monday Riot. You can also find them on their website http://www.bytownboys.ca on twitter @BytownBoysSC and on facebook at The Bytown Boys.
