​We are so excited to tell you about this month’s Road to BURST contest. April is the month of Spring Training Daze with SKIP. Spring training for what? The BURST colour run of course!

Throughout April, there will be weekly training scheduled for students participating in the program. Each week, there will be goals set and prizes to win to get you ready to run. The best part about Spring Training Daze is that the team with the most registered participants by the end of April will have their very own mini-BURST celebration.

The BURST colour run is coming up fast and tickets are on sale NOW!! ​

Registration and Ticket Prices:

All prices include an ID package, white t-shirt with BURST logo, and awesome swag.

  • Seniors 60+/ Students Participants (JK-Post Sec): $25
  • Adult Participants 18+: $35
  • General Admission – Spectators: $5
  • Team: $32.50/each (Discounted pricing for Teams 4+)

​SKIP would also like to announce the winner of the Selfie with a Senior contest from February. Congratulations to Diane Henrique’s class at Walpole North school in ​Hagersville. They took a large group selfie during their visit at the Senior Support Services Centre, gaining the most likes out of the submissions.
