The 15th annual Chatham-Kent event is being held on June 9th.
Cindy Vinall, senior manager of community offices, says in honour of Canada’s 150th birthday, they want to make this year’s walk bigger and better than ever.
“Over the next couple of months leading up into relay…we’re going to be talking about the entertainment and activities that we’re going to incorporate that 150 years,” says Vinall. “It’s kinda neat that it’s 150 years, and it’s 15 years. We’re gonna go with that.”
Last year’s event raised about $89,000.
