If you haven’t participated in the CAGP Fun Run/Walk before there are no excuses to sit it out this year! Highlights and additional features of this year’s event include:

  1. Beautiful, scenic 5 km route for runners (30 minutes) and 3 km route for walkers (45 minutes)
  2. Start time has been moved to 7:00 a.m., allowing you an extra hour of sleep!
  3. The team that raises the most in donations will be awarded the "Resilience Cup"! To donate to a team, click here.
  4. Also new this year, CAGP/CCSMH is opening up our Fun Run/Walk to our gracious host community! Organizations and individuals from Halifax and the Nova Scotia region who wish to support our cause will be able to participate or donate as well. This will help us to raise awareness about seniors’ mental health and raise funds to support the important work of the CAGP and CCSMH.

This promises to be a really fun event for all participants, and a great way to raise funds and awareness for seniors’ mental health. Come out and enjoy the company of your colleagues while taking in the beauty and history of Halifax. We look forward to seeing you there!
