A group of old friends who met at St. Benedict's Catholic School are holding the fourth annual Rexdale Open, Sept. 20. The tournament starts at noon at the Kleinburg golf course.
The cost for registration is $125, which includes rental of a golf cart and dinner. There will be prizes awarded after a raffle. Proceeds from the event go to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation's Ontario chapter. Call Joe at 416-762-1880 to register.
The goal of this year's marathon is to raise $1 million for more than 60 small Toronto charities including Invest in Kids, the Assaulted Women's Helpline and Fort York Food Bank.
The marathon (42 kilometres), which also offers a half marathon (21 kilometres) and five-kilometre run has become one of the premier sporting events in Toronto and across North America, according to organizers.
"This race is Toronto's race and there is truly a way for everyone in our city to participate," said Alan Brookes, race director, in a press release.
This year there are three ways for Torontonians to get involved. People who aren't running can participate by pledging a runner or by coming out to cheer along the race route or at one of Scotia Toronto Waterfront's 10 official Neighbourhood Cheering and Entertainment Centres from the Humber to the Beaches.
This year's marathon starts and finishes at Toronto City Hall, 100 Queen St. W. beginning at 7:30 a.m. Visit www.torontowaterfrontmarathon.com for the full race route.
