When you make your way to the park please head to registration which will be set up at William Bell Gazebo. Volunteers wearing yellow vests and Crohn’s and Colitis Canada lanyards will be available throughout the park to answer your questions.

REGISTRATION is open from 10:00 AM – 11:15 AM
Registration is by the individual; If you are part of a team please do not wait for your team members to arrive before registering
Just a reminder that there is one prize per participant/per pledge form.
Friends/family who are coming out to walk with you but are not fundraising do not need to register; they can walk with your group and have food and drinks
To make our registration process faster and easier, it would be extremely helpful if you wrote a single cheque to Crohn’s and Colitis Canada for all cash donations that you’ve received. The sooner we get through registration the sooner the FUN can begin!

Can I bring my pet to the Gutsy Walk?
You can most definitely bring your 4 legged friends to join us at the walk! The more the merrier! Dogs must be on leashes. Please pick up after your pet and bring water for them.
