Description
This event for 2020 is postponed until October 2021.
Sunday, October 27, 2019 is the 8th Annual Rutherford PBA Halloween Foot Pursuit, a 5K Run/1 mi. walk through scenic Rutherford streets. Proceeds from this event will benefit Rutherford PBA Local #300 and Rutherford High School's Project Graduation.
The Rutherford PBA Local #300 in the past has sponsored Little League baseball teams, Babe-Ruth teams, Safe-Night Out, Jr. Police Academy, Senior Scholarships, bicycle awareness for children, NJ Special Olympics Torch Run, as well as greatly supporting other charitable organizations. We also support fellow officers and families that are sick or have fallen on hard times.
Project Graduation is a nationally recognized drug and alcohol free night of celebration in which Rutherford has been participating since 1997. The event is filled with fun, food and activities for outgoing high school seniors and takes place right after graduation.
