The Rucksack March for Remembrance was established to bring people from the community together with one mission in mind. The mission is to raise awareness and funding for the many Canadian militaries and first responder families who are in the midst of their own service-related battles.
The start location will be Confederation Square (across from City Hall and in front of our local Armories) with parking at 201 McDonnel St.
Following a loop through downtown Peterborough, the event will finish with laps completed around the 1 kilometre paved circuit at Nichols Oval Park (725 Armour Rd.)
This year’s annual event has a goal of raising $100,000 which will support veteran and first responder families across the country. All donations go directly to the Wounded Warriors Canada foundation.
