We are hosting the 9th Annual Ottawa Butterfly Run at WC Levesque Park, on the beautiful Stonebridge Trail for a third year in a row!

Due to limited parking at WC Levesque Park, we will be offering a shuttle to and from the event. The shuttle will run from 8:30-9:45 am and again after the event.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday October 5th 2025 at 10:00 for the Butterfly Run opening ceremonies, the 4km Run/Walk will begin promptly after.

As a reminder, all funds raised from this event go directly to Roger Neilson Children's Hospice, so we want to thank you in advance for your support. Last year, we were able to bring our overall donation amount to $500,000!

Please note this location has limited parking. As such, a shuttle service will be running!
Shuttle use is included in your registration fee- so you need to sign up for the run in advance for insurance purposes!
