START YOUR ENGINES!🏁
Join us for the Northern Lights Health Foundation's 8th Annual Hospital Bed Races, proudly presented by Birch Mountain Enterprises!
This one-of-a-kind, family-friendly event brings together teams from local businesses, industry, sports clubs, and community groups—all racing to claim the prestigious Golden Bedpan Trophy and ultimate bragging rights, all in support of local healthcare.
What’s it all about?
Teams of 4 (ages 18+) race hospital beds—complete with a 150-pound sandbag passenger—down a 50-meter course in a head-to-head, tournament-style race. All racers are encouraged to show off their creativity with fun team costumes or corporate gear!
It’s not just about speed—there’s more than one way to win at the Hospital Bed Races! In addition to awarding the fastest team, we’ll be presenting teams with prizes based on their creativity, enthusiasm, and fundraising impact:
🏁 Fastest Team
🎉 Team Spirit Award
💸 Top Individual Fundraiser
💼 Top Fundraising Team
No matter which award you take home, your participation makes you a champion for healthcare in our community!
Why it matters🫶
Healthcare impacts all of us—and supporting it brings our community together. Funds raised through the Hospital Bed Races help the Northern Lights Health Foundation improve patient care in Wood Buffalo by funding vital medical equipment, programs, and services.
Get involved
Sign up a team, become a sponsor, or cheer from the sidelines—however you participate, you're making a difference. Together, let’s race toward a healthier future, because when we support healthcare, we all cross the finish line winners!
