The Hawkesbury/Chute-à-Blondeau Terry Fox Run/Walk is spread out over several hours during the day on Sunday, September 14. The schedule allows participants to choose whatever time of day is most convenient for them and still helps raise money for cancer research.
The event takes place at Voyageur Provincial Park, and the route begins at the park office. The entrance to the park is located on County Road 4 near the interchange with Highway 417. Registration opens at 8 am and continues until 4 pm. The route follows paved roads throughout the park which means it is suitable for running, walking, cycling, roller blades, and wheelchairs.
