Proceeds to Gibson Centre and SMH

BY Staff   March 06, 2009 20:03

South Simcoe runners are getting in shape for the first Summer Solstice Run.

Girls on the Run South Simcoe is sponsoring a five-kilometre, 10-kilometre and kids fun race June 21 as a fundraiser for the Gibson Centre and Stevenson Memorial Hospital.

New Tecumseth council is in the process of approving the race route through downtown Alliston, which will require some streets to be shut down the day of the event.

Organizer Ann Jackson said they are trying to keep the event appealing to all runners. The goal for this year's run is to have 500 participants.

Jackson said registration details will be made available this month. For more information on the Summer Solstice Run call Jackson at 705-434-1299.
