Post Race Refreshments will start promptly at 2:30pm and will also be located inside the centre. There is ample parking located at the Country Hills Community Centre in two different lots. If the primary lot is full please follow the signs to the centre's secondary lot.
Children Participants
We are a family friendly event! However no one younger than 6 years old will be allowed to run in the 5KM event. For the 5KM event we ask that all children aged 6-11 have a adult chaperone at all times. Children 12 years and above will be allowed to participate without a parent or adult present but our waiver must be signed by a parental guardian. Though really the best fun is running as a family!
Our 1KM Easter Egg Hunt Run is open to ages 12 and under. Children particpating in the Easter Egg Hunt must have a adult chaperone.
Kidsability
This event will be donating part of the proceeds made to Kidsability. We are also encouraging all participants to ask for pledges for their run from friends and family members. Part of the proceeds from our T-shirt sales will also be going to Kidsability. To find out more about this awesome charity visit their website at http://www.kidsability.ca/
