Our annual Green-in-Motion fundraiser brings awareness to sustainable living practices, while raising money to help send children to camp. Expanding on the traditional walk/run event, we invite everyone to come out and enjoy the outdoors using any form of "human-powered transportation", e.g. walk, run, rollerblade, unicycle, bike, trike, wheelchair, etc. There will also be environmental activities, entertainment, refreshments, prizes, and free tours of our Environment Centre – one of Canada’s most sustainable buildings! We go rain or shine. Bring the whole family - children, parents, grandparents… all ages welcome!

The Princess Ball is an opportunity for a gentleman to have a date with his special “princess” aged 6 to 99+. We believe having a wonderful evening of dinner and dancing with a silent auction and a few surprises will be a very enjoyable time for all, while helping to continue the fight against the deadly disease of prostate cancer.
We want the male population to be informed and aware that prostate cancer will afflict 1 in every 6 men in Canada. Our hope is to bring an awareness of how important it is for men to be an active participant in their health care. The beneficiary of this event is Prostate Cancer Canada, a national organization dedicated to the awareness, prevention, and elimination of this cancer. It is an opportunity to raise monies to help Prostate Cancer Canada fund research into the dynamics of a disease that is too often overlooked.
