Railpath Spring Community Run

Hi everyone,

I’m a local resident (and your friendly CVRA webmaster) and recently during a run on the Railpath I was musing that it would be a fantastic place to hold a fun run, with a dual purpose of bringing the community together in this great space and raising money for something good in our community.

I have put together a business plan for a Railpath fun run/walk in Spring 2012 and I’m currently reaching out to community leaders for support. As a charitable partner, I reached out to The Stop since they bring so much to our community and Toronto-wide. So far, Ana Bailao, Jonah Schein and Andrew Cash have committed to support this, and I will be having further discussions in the coming weeks. 11 Division has said they would also potentially to be able to provide some support. 

I would like to pull together a steering committee to organize the event and I am looking for local community members who are interested in participating. Alternately, if you have some other way you would like to contribute as we start to plan (such as a local business, etc.) that is also helpful. I am happy to share the business plan if anyone is interested.

Your support is appreciated. More to come as we start to make this a reality!

Please comment below if you are interested in more information, seeing the business plan and/or joining the steering committee. I will reach out to you directly. Thank you!
