An annual fundraiser in support of local cancer-care organizations is coming to Brock University.

Taking place remotely at various locations across Niagara, the 16th-annual Rankin Cancer Run will set up shop at Brock from noon to 1:15 p.m. on Wednesday, May 31.

The on-campus event is hosted by Brock’s Office of People and Culture in partnership with Student Life and Success, and invites members of the Brock community to take part in a one- or five-kilometre walk, run or roll.

Interested participants can join Brock’s team by searching ‘Brock University’ in the Team Search Bar on the Rankin Cancer Run website. Once completed, participants will receive a confirmation email, and those who sign up by Friday, May 19 will receive a T-shirt.

There is also a need for volunteers to help with registration and as route marshals.

Volunteers will meet between the Cairns and Plaza buildings at 11:30 a.m. The run will begin from the same location at noon.

All registrants will check into the event using the University’s event pass site or their Brock email address.

A full description of what to bring and registration links can be found on the event’s ExperienceBU page.
