Members of the Brock community are being asked to strap on a cape to make a difference in the lives of local children.

The University is putting together a team for the annual Superhero Run in support of the Niagara Children’s Centre.

The event takes place on Brock’s campus Sunday, Oct. 15, with registration beginning at 10 a.m. in Isaac’s Bar and Grill.

Superheroes will then launch from the starting line to run or walk either a one-kilometre or five-kilometre route.

Cost to participate is $25 per person or $50 per family.

To join Brock’s team or to make a donation, visit the Superhero Run website.
