Join us for the 9th Annual Foothills Hike for Hospice Hustle on Sunday, May 4th, where every step you take helps make a big impact for hospice care in the Foothills.
As always, our event will feature both a 2k and 5k walk. The walk offers an accessible, family and pup-friendly route along the Town of Okotoks' Sheep River paved pathways, perfect for strollers, wheelchairs, and scooters.
Following the success of the 5k run in 2024, we’re thrilled to add a 10k run this year! The 5k and 10k run routes have been carefully designed by the Big Rock Runners, who for many years organized and ran the Sheep River Road Race! True to their tradition, these routes will guide runners along scenic, picturesque river pathways.
Each year, Hike for Hospice Foothills raises funds to support the Foothills Country Hospice, which provides access to critical care for terminally ill adults and their loved ones, when it's needed most.
Make a team, bring the family, or enjoy a stroll with your pup—every step you take helps make a big impact for hospice care in the Foothills.
Take your race day efforts to the next level! Compete for exciting prizes like Best Dressed Team and Top Fundraiser for both Individual and Teams!
Our residents and families need your support to help us reach our goal of $80,000!
