Show us Your Speed and School Spirit!

This year we’re calling on all middle-school students in Burlington and Oakville to show us their speed and school spirit.  We’ve organized two special events for groups of 8 or more students in grades 7 or 8.  Both events feature a $150 cash prize to the winning team!Â
​
Best Team Time - 5K

We calculate the average time to run 5K for the fastest 8 runners on each team (based on finishing times in our race)
-
The team with the lowest average time wins $150! Â
​
Best School Spirit

Enter a team of 8 or more runners
-
Impress our judges with a school cheer after the run. Earn bonus points for wearing school colours, sporting fun T-Shirts, adding dance moves and the originality of lyrics in the cheer.

The team with the most spirit wins $150! *
​
Teams are encouraged to enter these events with the guidance of teaching or coaching staff. Teams that are not lead by school staff must be supervised by a capable adult. Race organizers will coordinate participation with the team’s designated supervisor.
The cost to participate is $25 per student. This covers ‘chip’ timing, a race medal, a simple pancake breakfast, plus fruit and water after the race. Other food options will also be available on-site for a fee.
​
Students are encouraged to raise funds for their efforts!
Bronte Creek charges a Park Entry fee of $18 per car, or $63 per bus, paid at the gate. Â Â
Teams must register in advance to participate. Â Race Entry Fees can be paid at the race by cash, cheque or credit card (individually, or as a group).Â
Please contact Dan Dubreuil at info@RotaryTurkeyTrot, to enter a team. Â

* All teams cheers will be evaluated by a panel of 3 impartial judges who are members of The Rotary Club of Burlington North. Â
