VON Activity Challenge 2026 : Mount Brydges
The 2026 VON Activity Challenge takes place in person at Mount Brydges Lions Park and includes a virtual component. The in-person morning program features VON's largest outdoor SMART exercise class, accessible trail walks, a scavenger hunt and a community BBQ supported by the Mount Brydges Lions Club. VON Family Supports will host additional activities during the event.
The virtual challenge runs from September 1 to 26, 2026. Virtual participants may complete activities on a single day, across a week, or throughout the month. Eligible activities include walking, running, swimming, canoeing, trampoline, weight lifting, dancing, gardening and SMART exercise classes. Activity tracking can be done with a step device or app, or manually using a tracking form and an activity-to-kilometre conversion chart that will be provided in the online toolkit.
Online registration is encouraged beginning July 10, 2026. All participants will receive a free VON Activity T-shirt. Funds raised support VON Middlesex-Elgin services across Middlesex and Elgin counties, including St. Thomas, Strathroy, Dorchester and London, and help sustain programs such as the Adult Day Program, Bereavement Services, Home at Last, Meals on Wheels, SMART Exercise and Falls Prevention, Accessible Transportation and related community supports.
