Athletics Ontario wants to celebrate track and field with our members and the community and what better time than during the Pan Am Games? The Ontario Track and Field Day will feature games, races, food, and so much more! The event will take place on Wednesday July 22, 2015 from 1:30 to 5:00 PM at Black Creek Pioneer Village (approximately a 500m walk to the CIBC Pan Am Athletics Stadium). The Ontario Track and Field Day will take place between Pan Am sessions, the morning session includes the Men’s and Women’s 100m semi finals and the evening session will host the finals for the 100m races.
The Ontario Track and Field Day is a free event; parking for the day is available for $15. General parking for those attending the Games is $20. Parking purchased for the Ontario Track and Field Day is available all day, visitors may park at the Village and walk over to the stadium to watch the events of the day at the Pan Am Games.
AO has set up registration for the event on Trackie. Anyone attending the event should register for the event, participants will not be asked for payment. Anyone registered for the event prior to July 21, 2015 will be entered into a draw.
Parking can also be purchased through Trackie. Please note that parking spaces for the Ontario Track and Field Day are limited and it is highly recommended that parking be purchased well in advance of July 22 to guarantee a parking spot at the event for $15.
