DETAILS:
Running & Reading Clubs have been the heart and soul of the Start2Finish program for 22 years now, a Fitness Literacy Model that produces long-term social change in the lives of children.
After a two-year Covid shutdown, Start2Finish is beginning a gradual return to in-person programming, and hoping to restart at two or three Guelph elementary schools after March Break.
