Compass Run for Food : 13th Annual (June 13, 2026)
Compass Run for Food is an annual fundraising event that supports established food programs in Dufferin County, including food banks and school nutrition programs. The event is based at Compass Community Church and uses groomed trails through Island Lake Conservation Area in Orangeville.
Available formats:
- 0.5K Kids Run for ages 9 and under, free
- 5K Run/Walk open to all ages
- 10K Run out-and-back due to trail closures, minimum age 10 and pace requirement
- Virtual Run/Walk run anywhere during June
Registration is online in advance. Registration tiers note kit items while supplies last; registrations by April 30 receive a personalized bib with team name. Participants receive chip-timed results on race day and results are posted with top finishers by sex and age groups. There are prizes for top individual and team fundraisers.
The course has no on-course water stations, so participants should carry their own water; emergency water is available. The event provides early and late kit pick-up options and operates primarily outdoors. The safety plan asks that anyone feeling unwell stay home and notes that in-person registration is not available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
