The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation is delighted to announce the return of their annual fundraising event, Heroes Run for the Healthcare, presented by: Canadian Nuclear Laboratories. The 3rd annual event will take place on Saturday, May 11th in beautiful downtown Pembroke.
“This 2km hero theme and 5km community run event will bring our community together for a common goal each spring, to support local healthcare,” says planning committee chair, Scott Coombes. “This year's event will support the Pembroke Regional Hospitals highest priority equipment needs at your Pembroke Regional Hospital and keep state-of-the-art healthcare, right here, close to home,” adds PRH Foundation’s Executive Director, Roger Martin.
The 2km hero themed kids run, sponsored by Mike’s Hardware Doors and So Much More, will include many treats, super hero “meet and greets” and even their very own super hero cape. Registration for kids 12 and under is $10 and their guardians can accompany them on the run free of charge.

Meet many of your favourite super heroes during our 2km themed family run. You will receive a bag at the start line to collect treats from super heroes along the route. When you complete your 2k mission you will receive a super hero cape”.
