Walk with us on the Coldest Night of the Year

On Saturday, February 28, 2026, Safe ’N Sound Grey Bruce is once again taking part in the Coldest Night of the Year (CNOY) in Owen Sound - a family-friendly winter walk that raises funds for people in our community who are facing hurt, hunger, and homelessness.
Coldest Night of the Year 2026 Canada

Every dollar raised helps keep our doors open so people can access basics like food, clothing, showers, laundry, hygiene supplies, as well as advocacy, referrals, and a warm, welcoming space when they need it most.

Build your team. Bundle up. Make a difference.

We’re looking for teams and walkers to join us and turn a cold winter night into warmth and hope for our neighbours.

Whether you’re a family, workplace, faith group, club, or a few friends who care, you can:

- Form a team and invite others to walk and fundraise with you
- Join an existing team if you’d rather not captain your own
- Walk as an individual and still make a big impact

Walkers can choose from 2 km or 5 km routes starting and finishing at the Owen Sound Farmers’ Market, with check-in beginning at 4:00 p.m. on event day.

👉 Register today:

to sign up as a team captain, walker, or to donate.

Local businesses: walk with us as sponsors

If your business wants to stand visibly alongside people in our community who are struggling, CNOY is a powerful way to do it. Sponsors are recognized through event materials and online, including on the official CNOY Owen Sound page, where community sponsors are highlighted.

Businesses wanting to be sponsors can contact Wren by emailing fundraising@safensoundgreybruce.ca

Bundle up, bring your heart, and help us show that no one in Grey Bruce has to face the cold - or their challenges - alone.
