2025 Vaughan Walk For Lyme
Walk with Us! Our 5 km charity walk route starts and ends at Magnotta Winery, 271 Chrislea Road in Vaughan on Sunday, June 1st 2025.
One tick bite can cost you your life. The G Magnotta Foundation's mission is to take a research stand against Lyme Disease. By better understanding Lyme bacteria and how it behaves once it enters the human body, we change how Lyme Disease is tested and treated in Canada and around the world.
All net proceeds go directly to the G. Magnotta Foundation for Vector-Borne Diseases to benefit Canada's first translational Lyme Disease Research Lab at the University of Guelph.
Enjoy a healthy stroll through Vaughan while supporting an important cause.
