IMPORTANT == CHANGES

Anyone participating in our Rally who causes a large gap between vehicles or leaves the rally before we return to the park in order to get better parking will be disqualified for trophies and future Bandit Run’s. I have a huge responsibility to those who pay to attend, and I will make sure they go away wanting to come back next year. You Must return To the Park in the Oder You Left and K9nine Security Will be Enforcing This for Us. All Firebirds will park on Memorial Park before the run and will be the first to pull in behind our lead and Staged Vehicles when we leave. This will free up all the parking behind town hall with lots of room. Drone footage will verify that order as it does every year. Older slow vehicles will be given an exemption and will qualify for trophies without completing the run. They will remain at the park.

We can now park vehicles on the lawn in front of Port Hope Town Hall.

There will be a strict limit of 150 Vehicles, and all Gate Registrations will make a $30 Donation to our Make A wish Buckets. Gate registrations will not get A Dash Card and will not get judged or qualify for trophies as they will not have completed the run, Only Pre-Registered vehicles will be part of the rally/parade and will qualify for judging as has been the case since he first Run in 2018. This Rule is for a reason, we simply cannot allow Vehicles to stay at the park and begin a trend , defeating the whole purpose of the Run, which is to bring awareness to suffering children waiting for a wish.

I am working on having Cold Water and Soft Drinks Available as well as bringing in a Food Truck and Discount Vouchers from Olympus Burger who I have already visited and spoke with the owner, to discuss what they are willing to do. Please remember, nobody else in Canada does what we do, and we have specific challenges that will be met and solved for Bandit Run Canada 8 -2026. To do that I need volunteers to join my team supporting Danny Pearce and myself.

Danny Pearce, my National Vice President – will now handle all registrations with only one division being called to the red canopy to register at a time. Once that division is registered, that colored binder will be handed to the judge who will find every vehicle in that binder, judge it and place a bright red sticker on their dash card.
