33 Board and staff members with their families and friends added a splash of colour to a cold, grey race day on Sunday, October 16. They walked and "wheeled" the 5k with banners, strollers and service dog "Bella," ran the 5k and half-marathon for time or just for fun and raised awareness about Moorelands' approaching 100th anniversary. They also raised $18,082 from 183 individual sponsors for our city programs. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped!
Our goal for next year: 100 participants - one runner/walker for each year of Moorelands' history. Please mark your calendars for October 2012 and start training...
At Moorelands, we recognize the inherent value of all children and youth. We work with Toronto children and youth affected by poverty to provide them with positive and fun experiences to help strengthen their confidence, competence and character.
