People keep asking what Lace Up actually is, so here it is.

You register, pick up your glow laces, and walk a 1.2 km loop with your neighbours, glow sticks bobbing all around you. Do as many laps as you like. There's hot chocolate, music, a kid zone, raffle prizes, and a medal at the finish. Our friends at Ahadu Coffee Roasters (.ca) will be there too, so come caffeinated. Nobody's timing you. Lots of people walk it with grandparents, strollers, or a very excited dog.

Three weeks to go. Registration link in bio, and any questions can go to [email protected]

We’re proud to have the Airdrie Lions Club as our Presenting Sponsor. Their commitment to service, local families and community organizations makes this partnership such a natural fit.

On Saturday, November 14, we’ll come together at Chinook Winds Regional Park for an evening of movement, glow, connection and community spirit.

✨ Bring your family
✨ Invite your friends and coworkers
✨ Dress warm
✨ Bring your glow gear

Diabetes Canada recommends building a support network and even asking friends or family to join you for a walk as a way to help stay motivated.

So for Lace Up, don’t come alone.

✨ Start a team
✨ Bring your neighbours
✨ Invite your workplace
✨ Gather your family

Because a community walk becomes something pretty special when your people are beside you.

🦁💙 Movement + awareness + community.

Lions International’s Strides for Diabetes program is built around a simple idea: use fun physical activity to help promote diabetes awareness.

That makes the partnership between Airdrie Lions Club and Lace Up especially meaningful.

We’ll walk together, glow together and help start more conversations about diabetes right here in Airdrie.
