Walk For Kids
INFORMATON FOR LIONS CLUBS
The Lions Clubs NZ Child Mobility Foundation are asking your Lions Club to organise a
fundraising sponsored 10 km walk that COMMENCES AT 10.00 AM ON SATURDAY 10
OCTOBER 2015 in your part of the country. Our goal is to have a “10 – 10 – 10 Walk for Kids”
covering the equivalent of the distance from Cape Reinga to Stewart Island at the same time.
We ask that Lions Clubs run these walks and suggest you target the following to get
participants and support –
Schools
Walking Groups – ask for advice on the best walks, eg, easy terrain, scenic, out of the
way of traffic. Make sure local rules are abided by. Do you need guides, marshalls,
cones?
Sporting clubs – rugby, league, netball, hockey, tennis, soccer, touch rugby etc
Other clubs, eg, Probus, Garden Clubs, Womens Institute, Federated Farmers, Young
Farmers etc.
Contact your local celebrities – sporting and others and ask them to participate.
Publicise in local newspapers, on the radio and local TV stations.
Participants to gain sponsorship per km for the 10 km walk. Sponsorship forms will be

Halberg Disability Sport Foundation
CMF and the Halberg Foundation recently met to establish how the two organisations could
work together. Disability Sport Advisors have attended CMF clinics so are familiar with some of
the work that Lions do.
The first collaborative venture between CMF and Halberg Disability Sport Foundation will be the
10-10-10 Walk for Kids.
They will advertise the walks through their networks, help organise them as well as bring in
participants. The Disability Sports Advisors are experienced in running events so please
contact them to help in your area. They are also keen to include some of their sports people
with disabilities which will showcase just what these achievers can do.
The Disability Sports Advisors in each area are –
Auckland and Waitakere
Counties Manukau and Northland
Auckland and Harbour
Waikato
Bay of Plenty and Gisborne
Taranaki, Whanganui & Manawatu
Wellington and Hawkes Bay
Canterbury, Tasman, West Coast
