Organiser's Description
3rd Annual Orange Shirt Day Run/Walk in Saskatoon to honor our little ancestors who did not survive the Residential school era; and simultaneously showing support and solidarity for the survivors who fight everyday for healing and justice. This event aims to raise funds for the Orangeshirtday.org; local grassroots movements here in Saskatoon and the ongoing promotion and support of Indigenous athletes in Saskatchewan. This event is a trail run that takes place on the beautiful Meewasin trail, winding through Victoria park and adjacent parks, rolling alongside the mighty Saskatchewan river. The start and finish line will be located at the "The Coming Spring", monument in Victoria park and includes three distances of 5km & 10km and an Elder & Kids walk/stroll/run of 2.15km. Cancellation policy can be found on our website Indigenousrunner.comThe Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada had estimated that more than 4,100 Indigenous children have perished due to "disease or accident while attending Residential school", yet we know that number is 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 movement to spread the TRUTH and to proclaim loudly that, "EVERY CHILD MATTERS!!!!"Lets RunConiliAction together
