Défi des générations contre le cancer

RTL to provide free public transit

Longueuil, September 26, 2017 – The Réseau de transport de Longueuil (RTL) is proud to announce that it will provide free shuttle service to participants of the Fondation de l’Hôpital Charles-Le Moyne’s Défi des générations contre le cancer, to take place on Saturday, September 30, at Parc Poly-Aréna and in the streets of Brossard.

To mark the occasion, the RTL will provide free shuttles for residents every eight minutes between 7 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., between the Panama terminal (platform 5) and Parc Poly-Aréna. For route and bus schedule information, visit the RTL website. 

“The RTL is pleased to be able to transport runners to and from this fundraising event for a cause that’s very important to us. We feel very strongly about supporting organizations within the Agglomération, which is why we’re very proud of our ongoing partnership with the Fondation de l’Hôpital Charles-Le Moyne,” stated Colette Éthier, Chairman of the RTL Board of Directors. 

A challenge for the whole family 

The Défi des générations contre le cancer is an inspiring race that reminds patients from the Montérégie that they are not alone in facing the disease. Proceeds from the Défi go to the Centre intégré de cancérologie de la Montérégie (CICM). 

The event will take place in a festive and family-friendly atmosphere. Participants can register for the 5-km run, 10-km run, or half-marathon, not to mention the “kilomètre des générations,” a 1 km route that grandparents, parents, and grandchildren can do together. For more information and to register: www.fhclm.ca.
