Meagan's Walk (2013)

Sat. May 11, 8:30 am to 10:00 am (Fort York), 10:00 am to 12:00 pm (walk to Sick Kids)
On Saturday, May 11th, Mother's Day weekend, thousands of participants will join in the 12th Annual Meagan's Walk. Fort York National Historic Site is pleased to welcome Meagan's Walk to their site for the first time this year.

Meagan's Walk mission is to share the message of hope, to increase public awareness about brain tumours and the devastating effects they have on children and their families, and to raise valuable financial resources for research into paediatric brain tumours - the leading cause of cancer-related death in children and young people under the age of 20. The flagship event is the Walk, which takes place annually on Mother's Day weekend. Each year thousands of participants of all abilities take part in the 5km walk, which culminates in an human hug around the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), sending strength and love to those within.

All are welcome to join us in this meaningful way to celebrate Mother's Day Weekend. The 5 km walk departs from Fort York at 10:00 AM and culminates in a human hug around the Hospital for Sick Children.
