Cancellation policy can be found on our website Indigenous Runner | Red Trail RunningAll are WELCOMENot ten years ago, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada had estimated that more than 4,100 Indigenous children have perished due to “disease or accident while attending a residential school", yet we know that number is much much higher. Tragically, ongoing investigations have revealed thousands more unmarked gravesites near to, or on the grounds of Canada’s former residential schools. Please join us again on September 30th in remembrance and to spread the TRUTH and to yell loudly that. EVERY CHILD MATTERS!and Lets RunConciliAction together
