On September 9th Nepean Run Club attended their first event of the 2018/2019 school year: the Ottawa Humane Society’s Wiggle Waggle Walkathon. The team of runners, students from NHS joined by family and friends from the community, walked 3km alongside the canal with their furry friends to raise money for the Ottawa Humane Society. The walkathon is OHS’s biggest fundraiser and this year they raised $116,508.67 that will go straight to helping the approximately 10,000 animals cared for each year. It was a beautiful day to be outside and Team NHS loved walking with hundreds of furry friends next to the picturesque Rideau Canal.
