Nick’s Kicks 4 Kids Takes It To The Streets
Run/Walk to Raise Funds for the United Way of Burlington and Greater Hamilton
The Running Room and Nick’s Kicks 4 Kids have teamed up to help the United Way of Burlington and Greater Hamilton help underprivileged children.
With every field goal over 40 yards made by Ticats kicker Nick Setta during the 2009 season, money is donated to Nick’s Kicks 4 Kids. The funds are used to provide underprivileged children in the Hamilton area with new running shoes. Now you can help Nick help kids by walking or running with Setta and Running Room founder John Stanton on Wednesday, October 21.

John Stanton’s appearance in Stoney Creek will be the first time that he has been in the Hamilton area since releasing his fifth book. Walking: A Complete Guide to Walking for Fitness, Health and Weight Loss was released last month by Penguin and has already gone to a second printing.
