Fredericton's Planning committee would like to remind all participants of the CBCF- CIBC Run for the Cure that while we are invited to enjoy the beautiful grounds of Old Government House, during our event Old Government House will not be open to the public.
This most beautiful, historic home is the private residence of the Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick and her Honor. It is also part museum.
We have been very fortunate over the years to have Old Government House as host site of our event and during the past 10 years the event has grown from a few hundred participants to a few thousand. As we get bigger, the committee has to continuously plan for larger crowds ensuring the safety for everyone and at the same time ensuring the grounds are well respected.
In anticipation of thousands attending our event, there will be Security personnel at each entrance of Old Government House. Indoor facilities will be restricted to committee members and bathroom facilities will be available only to those requiring assistance. We will have ample signage directing participants that there will be port a potties on the grounds all day.
Although the House will be closed during our event, we invite you to inquire about participating in the guided tour that is held during the week and on weekends. It is a beautiful home, filled with rare gems and beautiful art pieces on display , a home we highly encourage you to view at your convenience.
Also please note that there are no locked storage areas or change areas (outside of the port a potties) . We will not be responsible for items that are left unattended.
Please pass this along to members of your team and plan accordingly.
The Committee greatly appreciates your dedication and commitment to the CBCF-CIBC Run for the Cure event. We are all looking forward to the day when we can stop running and say that we have found a cure !
We thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.
If you have any questions, please contact one of the Run Directors, Judy Douglas or Rachel Brown at 454-CURE
