Virtual CNOY Day
This is your own self-organized micro-walk! Virtual CNOY Day should feel pretty familiar once you get walking - here are some key things you'll need to do on February 20 (or whatever day in February you decide to walk):
- Gather with your covid-safe bubble (or on your own)
- Map out a safe 2-5 km route
- Let someone know where you are
- Bring a cell phone in case of emergency
- Add pledged funds in your Fundhub
- Pledged funds will need to be paid out online via a personal credit card - we are cashless this year!
- Any cheques will be mailed directly to the Blue Sea office
- Share online as you go! #cnoy21
- Keep fundraising (half of all fundraising happens in the last week!)
- Be safe and have fun!
