Mark Saturday, June 4th 2011 on your calendar for the 10th Annual Run for Rights. Whether you choose to walk, run, cycle or rollerblade, this event is a great way to get some exercise or warm up for the Manitoba marathon in support of social justice and human rights.

To take part in the Run for Rights, you may collect pledges for — or make a donation to — one of the participating organziations. You may also do the same for the Run for Rights as a group, in which case funds are used to support all participating organizations. Everyone is welcome, and there is no minimum donation or pledge required to participate!

You can download a pledge or donation form from the website at http://runforrights.org/ and use it for your registration. All pledges will be collected the day of the race. Registration takes place Saturday June 4th from 8:30 to 9:00 AM at Kildonan Park, and the run starts at 9:30 AM. Please bring your registration form, your pledge money or donation, and a water bottle (water refills will be provided along the route). The Run for Rights is a “Fun Run” – participants will be responsible for recording their own times.
