Stedman Community Hospice Hike for Hospice ~ May 4th
On Sunday, May 4th thousands of Canadians from coast to coast will join forces and walk, stroll or hike 1km, 2km and 4km for an annual event called Hike for Hospice.
This marks our 4th year to be participating in this incredible day. Our Hike begins at 1pm at Stedman Community Hospice at 99 Wayne Gretzky Parkway in the beautiful city of Brantford. Once again, 100% of all funds raised at our Hike will go towards the programs and services offered free-of-charge at Stedman Community Hospice.
This year, our Hike asks, "Who Will You Hike For?" Since our Hospice doors opened in 2004, we have had the privilege of sharing in the lives of some incredible people, full of courage and tremendous strength of character.
It's astonishing that every month an average of 2,100 people are accessing the services and programs offered free of charge to anyone, at any age or stage of a terminal illness.
We hope that you can join us, as together we can accomplish so much more for the many patients and families of Stedman Community Hospice.
See you at the Hike!

Our Hike is now only 25 days away!!! Hard to believe...we have had a number of people registering in person, but I urge you to take advantage of our on-line registration through the website. It's a great way to quickly send out email appeals to all your friends, families and co-workers directly from the website. Everyone who pledges a Hiker has their tax receipt automatically generated...it couldn't get any easier.
So, the excitement is building and Hike day is fast approaching. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions and we'll see you at the Hike!
