Run For The Claus

Run For The Claus was a 6km run (or 3.5 km walk) on December 3 in which the people of the Cowichan Valley dress as Santa Claus to support the Clement Centre Society. The Clement Centre is a non-profit that helps children and adults with special needs. It desires “a community in which all individuals are included, valued and celebrated.” Children, men, women, and pets ran or walked around Duncan with pride; the Santas were determined to make positive change. Candy canes, hot chocolate, and water awaited the participants as they entered downtown Duncan.  Five Brentonians participated in the run along with several Brentwood parents. Run for the Claus is a blast for anyone who is enthusiastic about helping others during the winter holidays. Derek H, Privett ‘21
