Grey Bruce Spring Fun Run
5K and 1K Run/Walk
Date: April 28, 2012

           We would like to invite everyone to come out and join in the fun during the Second Annual Grey Bruce Spring Fun Run, a joint fundraising project that supports two local organizations that assist people with intellectual disabilities. Grey Bruce Special Hockey gives its 20 players who have intellectual disabilities a chance to form lasting friendships with their peers and play hockey on a team called The Falcons. Community Living Walkerton and District is a non-profit association that supports families and individuals with an intellectual disability; public education and awareness to inform the community of the abilities of people with intellectual disabilities is an important part of this association's ongoing efforts.

          Thanks to everyone who turned out for lasts years event, making it a great success. We will be holding our second annual 5 K run this spring in Walkerton, on April 28, 2012, with the start and finish line at the Walkerton Agriculture Society Building #2, 210 Durham St. West, Walkerton. We are planning the route to offer a safe and fun opportunity for those who wish to run, walk, use their wheelchairs or push their strollers to travel the 5k or 1k in Walkerton... with the available challenge of an incline! A team challenge, we trust will bring spirited comrades from near and far who will enjoy supporting fellow citizens in this way.

          Our effort is to have registration fees at a reasonable rate, and pledge sheets will be available. T shirts will be provided for each of the anticipated 300 participants, along with prizes for the runners/walkers will be part of this event, with accompanying activities to promote healthy living for all.

Watch for the 2012 registration form in the near future so you may print one out for yourself and to pass the information along to others.
