StairClimb

November 2 StairClimb

Step up and boogie down for your community!

Thursday, Nov. 2, 2023 at Budweiser Gardens in London

8:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.

TD StairClimb for United Way is a fun and lively fundraising event that helps United Way Elgin Middlesex support our neighbours in need.

StairClimbers will walk or wheel inside while moving and grooving to a disco beat at London’s largest team-building event for fun and for good.

Bring on the big hair, white polyester suit and neon leggings – register today, and let’s get United!
