À propos de l'organisation

<b>The </b><b>Event</b>

To date, Lawn Summer Nights has raised <b>over </b><b>$3,400,000</b><b>,</b> generated <b>awareness</b> <b>of cystic fibrosis </b>among thousands of people who had little previous exposure to it, introduced <b>thousands of young people </b>to philanthropy and community engagement, and started a <b>new trend </b>that has taken everyone by surprise (us included!).

Founded in 2009, LSN is a nationally trademarked and federally registered not-for-profit organization in Canada. the event is driven by volunteer young professionals who form each city's organizing committee, and supported by a National Manager as well as the Board of Directors. The event currently operates in Victoria, Vancouver, Tsawwassen, Calgary, Edmonton, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Windsor, Chatham, Simcoe, London, Brantford, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Charlottetown, and Halifax.

Each city’s event brings together two hundred people in their twenties and thirties throughout July. The participants arrive wearing fun team uniforms that honor creative team names, indulge in delicious menus of food and cocktails, all while reviving one of summertime’s classic leisure sports: lawn bowling.

<b>The Story</b>

Eva Markvoort is our inspiration to support Cystic Fibrosis Canada. Eva spent a lifetime battling cystic fibrosis, but made it her life’s work to build awareness and help to find a cure for the disease. Sadly, Eva lost her own fight with cystic fibrosis on

March 27, 2010.

She was 25 years old. We are proud to be a part of Eva’s legacy and our event will continue to accomplish what Eva championed the most – enjoying life and finding a cure for cystic fibrosis.

Good Times Running

The world is experiencing a crisis of unparalleled intensity. As people across the globe continue to live in isolation, one small but important part of their mental health and well being has been compromised – the ability to exercise. Sport, the great uniter of people and nations, has been pushed to the sidelines, because one of its greatest virtues – bringing people together – is the very thing that we as a society can no longer do. The NBA, NFL and NHL have all cancelled their seasons. Soccer matches globally have been cancelled. Marathons from Tokyo to Paris have been cancelled. The Olympics have been cancelled. But a strange thing has happened. Around the world in every country, in whatever way possible, people are taking to the streets to do the one thing they can do. RUN. New runners, old runners, out of shape runners and runners with disabilities. We can’t run together. But we can run alone, in large numbers. We can put on our shoes and run. On our balconies. In our neighbourhoods, in our living rooms. We can run to preserve our sanity, our humanity. We can run to bring breath into our bodies and to remember what freedom feels like. You might feel helpless in this pandemic. You might feel alone. But by doing the one thing you can do – run – you can make a difference in your community. Join #MyIsolationRun. Run for a minute or 20 or 60. Share your run story. Donate what you can at isolationrun.org. Every hospital across the country is on board. All you have to do is run, choose a hospital, and donate. Every minute you spend pounding the pavement is a minute you could be helping to save a life.
