Running for Shelter 2026

On Sunday, September 27, 2026, Bud Miller All Seasons Park will host the annual Running for Shelter event, a 5KM run designed to unite the Lloydminster community. This vibrant gathering not only encourages physical fitness but also fosters a sense of unity and support among participants, ranging from seasoned runners to families with children.
The day kicks off with an energetic start at Bud Miller All Seasons Park, where runners will navigate through scenic trails that showcase the natural beauty surrounding the park. The course is carefully designed to provide a mix of flat sections for comfortable pacing and gentle inclines offering picturesque views, ensuring every participant can enjoy their journey.
Beyond just running, Running for Shelter transforms into an all-day celebration. Families are invited to engage in various kid-friendly activities within the designated kids zone, while community vendors offer a range of local goods and services. Food trucks will provide delicious options for sustenance throughout the event, complemented by live music that adds to the festive atmosphere.
The day is not just about running; it's also an opportunity to contribute to meaningful causes. Every step taken and every donation made directly supports Lloydminster Men’s Shelter in its mission to assist individuals experiencing homelessness as they transition towards stable living situations. The funds raised will help cover essential needs such as housing, education, and job training.
Running for Shelter is a testament to the power of community coming together for a greater good. It's an event that celebrates individual efforts while emphasizing collective impact. Whether you're running or walking, your participation makes a difference in enhancing the lives of those in need within our community. Join us this September 27th and be part of something truly impactful.
