One of the longest running Telemiracle fundraisers hits the road on Thursday morning.

University of Saskatchewan students are continuing a 40-year tradition by pushing a bed from Saskatoon to Regina.

The bed push gets excellent support from agricultural businesses and alumni. The Agros have already raised $50,000 and are hoping to surpass $55,000 by the time they get to Regina for the start of Telemiracle on Saturday evening.

You can monitor their progress on the U of S Agros Twitter account, which will have pictures and video. Donations will be accepted on the road or can be made through the Telemiracle website.

Wednesday’s story with Ag Students Association Public Relations Officer Kate Sauser can be heard below:
