On June 2, 2023, Greg and Aaron will begin their 24 hour walk at noon, touching on all 24 wards in the City of Ottawa with a planned arrival at Ottawa City Hall at noon, the following day. The total distance is more than 100km which more than doubles the 2022 walk.

The starting point will be at Cooligan Martial Arts and Fitness at 12 Cedarow Court in Stittsville, ON. Greg is the manager of the club and instructor and Aaron is also a Cooligan Martial Arts black belt. In fact, the whole family trained there including Aric who achieved his black belt and worked as an instructor for a period of time.

Help us meet our goal

With over 1.4 million people in Ottawa/Gatineau, if 5 percent of the population donated just $1 each, we would exceed our goal by $20,000. We can’t do this without you! How can you help?

• Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and share the website and social media pages. Help spread the word!

• Donate! Every dollar counts and 100% of the proceeds will be going to Youth Services Bureau.

• Join us for a portion of our walk. Just a block or two will provide encouragement to continue on. This years walk is approximately 60km longer than the 2022 walk.

• Join us at City Hall. Our goal is to arrive at noon on Saturday, June 3.
