15th Annual Lindsay Jolly Jog 2024

Mark your calendars and pull out your running shoes because the 15th Annual Jolly Jog is happening this year on Saturday, November 16th!

Help Kawartha Lakes Food Source achieve their goal of raising $10,000 for food security initiatives, at the 15th Annual Jolly Jog! This is a festive and family-friendly 'fun run' that encourages the community to participate in a 5km walk/run around Lindsay.

Registration is free but we encourage those who are able to make a donation of $20 per participant upon sign up and strongly urge you to collect pledges in support of your run! Donations and pledges are so important; they make up nearly the entire amount raised each year, and we're hoping the 15th anniversary of this exciting fundraiser will be the best one yet! Donations of $20 and above are eligible to receive a charitable tax receipt.

On the day of the event, Jolly Jog registration will begin at 9:30am, and our fitness partners will lead a full warmup before the run starts at 10am. When Jolly Joggers complete the route, they can enjoy a fun-filled afternoon with games, a chili lunch, hot chocolate, and, of course, photos with Santa! Best-Dressed Prizes will be given for Most Festive Individual, Group, and Pet at the event, and a special prize for Most Funds Raised will be awarded after November 16th!

Not only is the Jolly Jog a fun kick off to the holidays, it's also a great way to give back to the community. We need your help to continue running our programs and initiatives that work to combat food insecurity in the Kawartha Lakes. Invite friends, family, coworkers, and teammates to join you - you can even sign up as a team!

Can't make it on November 16th, but still want to help fundraise? Be a virtual Jolly Jogger and collect pledges to support your own 5km run on a day and time of your choice!
