On Saturday, December 13th 2008, the Toronto Santa Speedo Run will once again be on display, giving the Yorkville area
a little unexpected fashion show.
What originally started as a whimsical idea conjured
up in a mild fit of dementia in 2005 ended up raising $38,434 for the Toys and Games
fund at Sick Kids at the 2007 edition. For those new to the event, it’s a fun run with the only objective being to
raise as much money as possible, while making complete and utter spectacles of ourselves.
Since
idiocy loves company, we’d love to have you with us.
The proceeds of the run will be going to the “Toys
and Games Fund” at the Hospital for Sick Children, to make any time spent there just a little more enjoyable.
Please note that as last year, this year there will be NO onsite registrations, and to participate we ask participants to raise at least $250 for the hospital. We will also again eschew our Luddite ways, and will have
online fundraising.
Soon.
When the IT Elfs get their act together (they're currently recovering
from a very long season).
