Media Advisory: More Than 2,800 Participants & 40 Dogs Walk to Support SickKids
Third annual Canaccord Genuity Great Camp Adventure Walk takes place September 26
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 09/23/15 -- This Saturday, September 26, join more than 2,800 participants, volunteers, sponsors - and this year, more than 40 dogs - for the third annual Canaccord Genuity Great Camp Adventure Walk presented by Sport Chek to benefit SickKids. The only event of its kind in Canada, the Great Camp Adventure Walk will start and end at Fort York and take participants to various activity-filled stops (campsites) throughout the 20-kilometre route.
Corporate teams, hospital staff, families, individuals and their dogs will journey through the streets of downtown Toronto, participating in seven campsites designed to bring a camp experience to the city.
New this year is a ''Super Campsite'' located at Fred Hamilton Park where participants will be challenged and entertained in a ''choose-your-own-adventure'' style with three distinct campsites at the 12.5, 15 and 17.5 km marks of the route. Participants can sing and dance at the Rising Star station, test their strength at a javelin toss or get lost in a rope maze.
Each participant will be celebrated as they cross the finish line, regardless of the distance they complete. As a thank you for participating, photos from the event will be displayed on the Gardiner Expressway billboards throughout the day.
