Run/Walk to honor our little ancestors who did not survive the Residential school era and in support and solidarity for the survivors who fight every day for healing and justice. This event aims to raise funds for the Orangeshirtday.org as well as local grassroots movements including promoting and supporting Indigenous athletes. This will be a combination of pavement and trail run through the beautiful Meewasin Trail starting at Rotary Park and includes three distances of 5 & 10 km and an Elder & Kids 2.15 km walk/run. Cancellation policy can be found on our website Indigenous Runner | Red Trail Running
All are WELCOME
Not nine years ago, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada had estimated that more than 4,100 Indigenous children have perished due to “disease or accident while attending a residential school", yet we know that number is much much higher. Tragically, ongoing investigations have revealed thousands more unmarked gravesites near to, or on the grounds of Canada’s former residential schools.
Please join us again on September 30th in remembrance and to spread the TRUTH and to yell loudly that.
EVERY CHILD MATTERS!
