Save the date Gold Coast City – Sunday 14 September will see our community step out in the annual fundraising event that is the 2014 Gold Coast Mayoress Charity Foundation the Seaway2Seaway Charity Walk.
Stretching for 35kms along the beautiful Gold Coast City coastline, the Seaway2Seaway walk celebrates our beautiful city, with participants taking in picturesque scenery from Southport’s iconic Spit to the famous surf breaks at Duranbah Beach.
What’s even better than taking an extended Sunday stroll and soaking up the sights of this amazing place we call home? Turning that stroll into funds for the charities who work tirelessly to support our community.
Kicking off at 5.30am from Doug Jennings Park in Southport, participants will pass through three support stops at Kurrawa Park in Broadbeach, Burleigh Heads and Palm Beach Parklands and will then complete the walk at the legendary border headland of Point Danger.
The Seaway2Seaway walk is structured to encompass all ages and fitness levels and walkers can choose to complete the full 35kms or select one of the alternate distances that are most comfortable for them.
Transport is covered, with buses returning to the Seaway from Justin Park in Burleigh Heads, Currumbin Pirate Park and Point Danger for a simple gold coin donation.
