1st Annual Quispamsis Fun Run and Swim

Please join us for the 1st Annual Quispamsis Fun Run and Swim in support of PRO Kids Saint John. Participate in either a 1km kids fun run, The Wave 5km main event, or both! Registration fee includes the run, free swimming at the QPlex for the first 400 registrants, exciting door prizes, and great food from local merchants such as Vito’s, Subway, Tim Hortons, and Pete’s Frootique.

 
All proceeds will go to PRO Kids Saint John, a non-profit organization that provides funding to underprivileged youth to participate in sport and recreation activities. This fundraising event is timely, as a recent study reported that Saint John is tied with Toronto for the highest child poverty rate in Canada, with a staggering 29% of children in Saint John now living in poverty.
 
Book early, as there are limited QPlex pool tickets. All event participants are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item in support of KV Food Basket. Come out, support a great cause, and make a difference. See you at the starting line!
