For a third straight year, the New Westminster Hyacks football team is setting a strong pace for the annual three-kilometre Family run, walk and Health Fair, May 7 at Queen’s Park.
The event, put on by the New Westminster Senior Secondary Sport Leadership Cohort and New Westminster Healthier Community Partnership, aims to promote a healthier community by bringing schools, families and students together to encourage healthy living choices.
It also serves as a fundraiser towards the NWSS Sport Leadership Cohort and the greater health education in the school district. The cost to enter is $15 per adult (19 and older) and $5 for students ages 6 to 18, if preregistering. Event day registration is $20 per adult and $10 per youth. Children five and under are free.
To register online, visit www.hyacksinmotion.com. The event begins at 10:15 a.m. on May 7, with registration and sign-in starting at 9:30 a.m. at Queen’s Park.
The first 200 pre-registered participants who bring a non-perishable food item for the Elizabeth Fry Society of New Westminster will receive a free Hyacks in Motion t-shirt.
