DreamWalk Canada Inc., along with DreamFest Volunteer Village presented by nutrition blocs Ottawa, invites participants to join an inspiring day filled with community spirit and dedication. The event kicks off at 8:00 AM when registration opens for all attendees who can check in, pick up their materials, and explore various community information booths. At 8:45 AM sharp, the organizers welcome everyone with opening remarks from sponsors, special guests, and local leaders to set a warm tone before the day's activities begin. The morning progresses at 9:00 AM with the poignant 1K Memorial Walk, an opportunity for participants to honor loved ones who have made significant contributions or passed on, creating a meaningful space for reflection. Following this, families and pet lovers are invited to participate in the 2K Dog Walk starting at 10:00 AM. This event celebrates inclusion by welcoming furry friends alongside their human companions for an enjoyable stroll through Ottawa's scenic paths. The day concludes with another walk option at 11:00 AM - a peaceful 3K route that promises to be both accessible and rewarding, allowing everyone to enjoy the community atmosphere while supporting important causes. For any questions related to volunteering or event logistics, Hana Sobhy from Volunteer Services can be reached via email (hana.sobhy@dreamerswalkcanada.org). This year's DreamWalk offers a series of engaging activities that bring together individuals and communities in support of shared values and goals.
