The Orange Shirt Day Run/Walk in Saskatoon is an annual event held at Rotary Park along the scenic Meewasin Trail. It honors Indigenous children who did not survive the residential school era and supports survivors seeking healing and justice. The event features three distances: a 2.15 km Elder & Kids walk/run, and 5 km and 10 km runs, combining pavement and trail routes.
The day begins with a ceremony and round dance, followed by warm-up activities including yoga. This community-focused event raises funds for OrangeShirtDay.org and local Indigenous initiatives, promoting awareness, reconciliation, and support for Indigenous athletes. All participants are welcome to join in solidarity. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
