Claiming badges for challenges is all based on the honour system. One activity counts towards one badge, with only one badge earned per day. We trust you when you say that you completed a challenge. Get out, see how many of the 27 challenges you can do and have fun!

We have created a tool kit with social templates and information to help you along your way. There are prizes at different fundraising levels – each milestone can directly help a family dealing with childhood cancer.

Safety Guidelines

Childhood Cancer Canada reminds participants to give safety the highest priority while participating in Breakaway Winter Adventure.

Participants are reminded to please follow the rules of your sport or activity, wear all recommended safety equipment and gear, and to obey all local laws.

For outdoor activities wear brightly coloured and weather appropriate clothing, avoid roads and high traffic situations, make safe choices, and proactively seek and avoid hazards.

Know your location. Before beginning your activity, determine if there are any safety or health hazards and how to address them.

Recommended activities include running, walking, snow shoeing, home workouts, use of an indoor rowing machine, indoor spinning, dancing, etc.

Due to a higher risk of injury, Childhood Cancer Canada recommends participants avoid the following outdoor activities: skiing, tubing, snowboarding, tobogganing, outdoor cycling, snow shoveling, or snowmobiling.

Whatever activity you choose, the best guideline is: Be Alert. Be Wary. Be Seen!
