The fourth annual Community Action Dash will be held on Sunday, May 16, 2010 at Santa Maria Goretti Community Centre. As you may know, the Dash is a 10 km run/5 km walk put on by Action for Healthy Communities (AHC), an organization that strives to promote community engagement within marginalized populations through supporting and encouraging the development of grassroots initiatives. The Dash serves as a fundraiser for the organization, enabling AHC to continue to support future activities. In addition, the event promotes physical activity opportunities and showcases the vibrancy of Norwood/North Central Edmonton. Participants complete a route that weaves through the McCauley, Alberta Avenue, and Parkdale neighbourhoods, obtaining a glimpse of the beauty and excitement that exists within these communities.

Each year, the Dash builds upon the success of the previous events. This year promises to be no exception, with the development of a partnership with Primavera, a garden festival put on by the McCauley's Italian community. This unique collaboration creates an opportunity to expand the promotion of physical activity and gardening opportunities to a broader audience, contributing to the development of a community atmosphere. It is anticipated that over 500 individuals will partake in the day long festivities.
