STRIDES FOR CHANGE

Get together with your bubble of friends, family and/or co-workers as we bring back MADD Yarmouth's 1km and 5km walk/run, Strides for Change! Enjoy a walk or run wherever you might be! Town, rural or anywhere, this is a great family friendly event.

Every step taken and pledge made will help raise funds and awareness for MADD Canada’s programs and services in Yarmouth County that will serve to keep our children and communities safer.

GOING VIRTUAL FOR COVID-19

With the ongoing changes of gathering limits with COVID-19, we have decided to go Virtual this year. Participate on any day between June 1-6 and post your selfies, group photo's or scenic routes on our Facebook event to stay engaged with other participants!
Local participants will be able to pick up their finisher medal and swag at Runner's Attic. Anyone participating from out of town will have the option to have their swag mailed to them.

*Swag limited to the first 100 registrants.
