Why We Run
The Smelter City Scamper is a fundraiser that supports the Anaconda Community Market and local food access programs. Proceeds stay in the community, helping strengthen local food systems  and the health and wellness of the community.

A Little Extra Fun
The Scamper takes place during Smeltermen’s Day weekend, so make a weekend out of it as there's plenty to do and see around town. Your run ends at Kennedy Commons and rolls straight into the Smeltermen’s Day Brewfest. Good timing, good people, and a solid way to wrap up race morning.

Sign up, show up, and be part of building stronger, healthier communities — one mile at a time.
