March For The Penguins

March For The Penguins

Dyer Island Conservation Trust

A penguin’s walk is more like a waddle, but did you know that this back and forth motion is actually an efficient use of energy for the penguin?

Whether you are lightning bolt fast or penguin waddle slow, join us for a fun, family, fundraiser. A 5km walk, waddle, shuffle, run - all for the penguins. Dress up in black & white, be sure to turn up for this family delight.

This is an untimed run, but there are still amazing prizes to be won.

Route: Local Kleinbaai area, starting and finishing at APSS.

Tickets: R75

Tickets are available online or at the African Penguin and Seabird Sanctuary.
