As the weather warms up and people start getting outside, the people of Ste. Rose are preparing for their second annual Fun and Fitness Walk.
Coordinator for the Ste. Rose Grotto Restoration Committee, Cynthia Maillard, says everyone can participate.
“Anybody can participate, all ages and they can participate by forming a team and if they don’t have a team we can add them to a team as they sign in. (They can participate by) biking, walking, roller blading, all those kinds of things, just to get them moving, any age can walk.”
Cynthia then explains where the money is going.
“The Grotto restoration project and its $15 per person, or $60 a team and once its raised all the proceeds will go to the Grotto restoration fund.”
The Restoration project raised $1200 last year, and this year they’re hoping to improve on that total.
This year, they have added another challenge during the walk in the photo challenge. Walkers are now asked to also take pictures during their walk and submit up to four photos a person for the Grotto Project Calendar.
The registration night is on Monday at 7 in the evening at the Ste. Rose Arena and the contest begins on May 7th and runs to June 15th.
All the rules and regulations and registration forms are at nearly every business in Ste. Rose, and if you have any questions call Cynthia at 447-2351.
