Event Details
All race participants will be required to pay a park entrance fee on the day of the race. Visitors must have an exact payment of $18 CASH (per car) when they arrive at the gate. This is the parks policy, park entry is not included with the race. To help limit costs, we encourage participants to car pool. The entry fee includes use of the park for the day so you can enjoy the parks amenities after the run/walk. To help alleviate the cost of the park entry fee we have reduced the cost of the race from $50 to $42.
The park gates open at 8:00AM. Please give yourself lots of time to get into the park before the race starts, the front gate can process 60-90 cars per hour. Please enter the park at the Day use area - 1219 Burloak Drive, Oakville.
