Do it as a team!
Whether your walking, cycling or golfing to end MS, it's more fun doing it as a team. The best part is the MS Society staff is here to help. We provide everything you need to create a fun-filled team of people you'd like to walk, ride or golf with - family, friends, co-workers, hockey buddies, book club members - you get the idea. Experience the camaraderie and excitement of a team while helping us end MS!
The team concept is simple, it is 4 plus more! We invite you to join with at least three of your friends, family and co-workers to create your own team. All you need to do is come up with a team name and we will take care of the rest! Our staff will reduce the demand on your time and resources with on-going support and motivational activities and incentives.
For more information on how to get you team started please contact the staff listed at the bottom of this page.
Create a team, Create a future free of MS!

Bulger, Honorary Chairman
My
name is Colin Bulger, and I live with MS. Living with MS
has taught me one valuable lesson—enjoy yourself.
It's a difficult journey, but not a hopeless one. Please
come out and support the Super Cities Walk to help find
a cure for MS, so that maybe one day I can say, “I lived with
MS.”
 Dory
Rossiter, Honorary Spokesperson
Your
fund raising efforts are making a difference in the fight
against multiple sclerosis. You are helping to fund research
to find a cure for MS, raising awareness and giving hope
to those who are suffering. Thank you for caring, and I'm
looking forward to seeing you on Walk Day!
