The You Can Play Project is dedicated to support the inclusion of LGBTQ athletes in sport and will be holding its first-ever charity run during Moncton Pride Week.
Spokesperson Cheryl McDonald says the non-profit organization has similar values as Moncton’s River of Pride Committee
“They are looking to support LGBTQ inclusion more broadly and they also seek to have fitness-related events. So they do yoga, zumba and softball,” she says.
The 5K run or walk is being held on August 20th at Riverfront Park but the deadline to register with The Running Room is August 15th.

McDonald adds 80 percent of the proceeds will go toward the You Can Play Project while the remaining amount will support Moncton’s River of Pride Committee.
It’s almost back to school time.
