Light it up Calgary Virtual Run - 2020
Event Information
Details for 2020
As you know, the Light It Up Calgary Run/Walk has been rescheduled. Because your safety remains our priority, this year’s event will be virtual. We invite you to run or walk anytime between September 11th and September 19th. Make it your own! Run at night or during the day, dress up if you like, invite people in your pod to join in, celebrate someone in your life who is making their way through cancer. Tag us and tell us why you are running or walking.
Registration is open and we encourage you to invite others to join us. We will still have the incredible prizes that the Light It Up Calgary run/walk has become known for including all of our amazing door prizes and the Kevin Kaminski Top Fundraiser prize. All participants and volunteers will still receive their high quality wicking t-shirt at kit pick-up. We still welcome your efforts to fundraise, in fact, Wellspring Calgary needs you more than ever (and we thank you for taking part)! Most importantly, you are guaranteed to making a difference in the lives of thousands who are living with cancer in our community. What could be better than that?
Saturday September 11 - 19th, 2020 / 5:30 P.M. / Calgary AB
