After hiking or biking participants are welcome to celebrate with a barbecue at the Communtiy Centre.
For those who are hesitant due to risks associated with COVID-19, they are encouraged to hike where they are most comfortable.
“We are celebrating hiking in person. We celebrate the end of a difficult winter season,” explained hike organizer Christopher Walker.
“Please join us at the community centre and help raise money for the hospice.”
Participants can enter in teams of family members or friends to hike and obtain pledges to support the hospice.
Teams can have fun and challenge each other, and there will be prizes for the team and the individual who raise the most money.
“The hike is a significant Huron Hospice fundraising event for the hospice. Each year, hikers and donors help pay for more than half our operational costs,” said Willy Van Klooster, hiker and Executive Director at the hospice.
“Hike funds help cover the cost of day-to-day services like nursing and volunteer support. As you can see, donor support is an important part of how we provide service.”
