25th Annual 5k Run / Walk: In-Person or Virtual

 


This year, the Friends of Vineyard Haven Public Library's 25th Annual 5k Run/Walk to benefit the library will be a "hybrid" event, with both in-person and virtual "run on your own" options. To register, visit runsignup.com.

[In-person] The traditional 5k event will be held at the library on Sunday, September 25th at 10 am. A free half-mile fun run for kids will be held at 9:45 am. The 5K course for this race begins next to the library on Greenwood Avenue, turning left onto Main Street and proceeding up Main Street to the West Chop Lighthouse, then returning down Main Street to the library. Registration for the in-person 5k is $30. A limited number of past year's t-shirts in a variety of colors will be available to 5k participants on race day.

[Virtual] For those who prefer to run the race on their own time, register today, go virtual -- run or walk a 5k anytime between now and September 25th. Virtual participants can run or walk any 5k course of their choosing.  Your donation of $25 for the "virtual" option will help the Friends continue to support library programs and services in the coming year.

All registered participants, both in-person and virtual, will be entered into a raffle drawing!

Please note that due to COVID-19 there is a risk that the in-person event on September 25th will be cancelled. In the event of cancellation no refunds will be issued, thank you for understanding.
