The event will be taking place at the Green Point Cricket Club in Cape Town on Sunday, 27 August and will include two routes along the Sea Point Promenade, a 10km walk that starts at 7.30am and a 5km walk that starts at 8am. Every person who enters will receive a medal.
X Factor winners, FOUR, will once again be entertaining the walkers as they cross the finishing line at the Green Point Cricket Stadium. Other entertainment includes a performance by South African pop singer, Lakota Silva. A host of food and refreshment stores will be available.
PSFA aims to emphasise four areas in which food enables children to reach their true potential. The awareness campaign is based on four key pillars that represent four core reasons to provide children with nutritious meals, namely: food for thought (food enables young learners to think critically), food for creativity (healthy meals enable the mind to be creative), food for play (balanced meals allow learners the energy to perform in sports and general play), and food for all (making sure that all youth have access to healthy food).
PSFA calls everyone to join them in its fight against childhood hunger by entering this family event at the cost of R50 per person. Each entry fee will enable PSFA to provide 20 underprivileged hungry school children with a nutritious cooked breakfast and lunch for an entire day.
Entries are limited to 13 000 people. Navy blue t-shirts are on sale for walkers at the cost of R80.
Entries can be done online or the entry form can be downloaded on the PSFA website. Entry forms can also be collected at PSFA’s offices situated at 26 Purdey Road, Sheffield Business Park in Philippi; the Top Events offices situated at 7 Koeberg Road, Maitland; or at selected Pick 'n Pay and Sportsmans Warehouse branches in the greater Cape Town area.
The closing date for group entries is Sunday, 30 July; manual entries Sunday, 6 August; and online entries on Sunday, 20 August.
