Canadian Home Builders Association – Simcoe County in partnership with the Barrie Construction Association are coordinating their efforts to raise funds for Operation Hero by organizing a Base Borden Run in Support of Operation Hero.
The 5k and 20k marathon run is to take place at Base Borden on Saturday, October 16th. For experienced “marathoners”, the “chip” technology will be available – whether walking or running. It will be a fun-filled day with beautiful scenery and groomed courses.
This is an opportunity to say Thank You to those who serve and to build bridges between the community, Georgian College and CFB Borden, by providing scholarship funding to Canadian Military Families.
The cost of the run is $35 per participant, and sponsorship opportunities are available at various levels. Registration and information is available on-line at www.operationhero.ca.
Media is invited to contact the Base Borden Run Chairpersons at which time interviews and photographs can be coordinated.
Operation Hero assists in education funding for families and dependents of our troops. This will be fully invested by Georgian College to provide scholarships for family members of Canadian Forces Personnel.
