The Food Bank Ugly Seater Walk or Run is Back for 2023

Submitted

Start and Finish will be at the new home of the Food Bank at 255 Knighton Road. (Across from the City maintenance yard)

Put on your best Ugly Sweater, Christmas or otherwise and join Kimberley’s premier fun run / walk, all in support of the Kimberley Helping Hands Food-bank. Entry is by donation of either non-perishable food or by cash or cheque (Kimberley Helping Hands Foodbank). Donations of over $20 will receive a tax receipt. Just put your donation in an envelope with your name and address and put it in the donation box on Sunday, December 3.

You can either enter a timed or non-timed category. Timed participants will be given a loaner timing chip.

Registration check-in opens at 10 a.m. We’ll have staggered starts with non-timed people starting once they have registered. This will spread everyone out both on the course and for the food at the finish.

Spread the word, bring a friend and come join the fun.

Free hot dogs, brats and hot drinks will be served by the Food Bank volunteers thanks for a generous donation from Save-On Foods.

Please pre-register so we can ensure we have food for all and to speed up the check-in process. https://kootenayorienteering.com/events/view/5236.
