Megan, Bronson, and Greyson Parry walk along Mud Creek Trail as part of the 2021 Hike for Hospice.
The community has once again stepped up to support Chatham-Kent Hospice families and residents through Hike for Hospice. Over $143,000 was raised to ensure these families continue to receive compassionate, end-of-life care at no cost.
The 2020 event brought in over $79,000. This year’s goal was to raise at least $50,000.
“The support for this year’s Hike for Hospice is stunning! We were happy to be back out at Mud Creek Trail– even though everyone participated on their own time, it felt much more like our traditional Hike for Hospice,” says event chair Randi Bokor Caron. “We received so many kind messages about the touching memorial signs along the trail. They certainly served as a reminder of why we host this event and the spirit of Hospice.”

Plans continue to come together for this year’s Hike for Hospice.
Event chair Randi Bokor says the annual event is back this year after having to go virtual in 2020 because of the pandemic.
“We had to come up with kind of a hybrid solution this year, the idea is that walkers, bikers, runners, can co out on their own time between April 26 and May 2,” Bokor says. “We would love for you to go to Mud Creek Trail because we’re going to have it done up, but if not even on their own time wherever they feel comfortable.”
