The Rotary Club of Brantford invites Rotarians from across District 7090 to join us for the 42nd Brantford Rotary Classic Run on Sunday, June 7, 2026.After several challenging years following the COVID shutdown and a decline in sponsorship, this is a pivotal rebuilding year for our event.
The Classic Run has lost more than $60,000 in fundraising and sponsorship, and we are working hard to restore this long-standing Rotary tradition that supports children’s charities in our community.
Proceeds from the Classic Run support local organizations dedicated to helping young people, notably the Lansdowne Children’s Centre and the BGC Brantford (formerly known as Boys & Girls Club of Brantford).
The Classic Run is a timed race, but it remains first and foremost a community event—welcoming runners, walkers, families, and supporters of all ages and abilities.

We hope to see many District 7090 Rotarians participate.
Whether you run competitively, walk with friends, join a team or support through fundraising, there is a place for everyone.
A highlight of the day is the First Responders Cup, where police, fire, and paramedic teams from Brantford, Brant County, and Six Nations compete for bragging rights while raising funds for their communities. A firetruck will be there for teams to get there pictures taken in front.
This is going to be a fun run so hope to see you there!
