Description

Experience a beautiful fall run at Lapham Peak State Forest.  Run on wide, well-groomed hiking/ski trails. The 5K course will tour the middle level of the park. The 10K course follows the outer perimeter trail. The children's Smokey Bear Fun Run course circles the pond at Homestead Hollow.  Walk on the 2.5K newly paved accessible trail suitable for wheelchairs or strollers, or take the stairs to the tower and/or visit the popular Butterfly Garden on the way back to Homestead Hollow start area. Enjoy treats, including Smokey Bear Birthday Cake after the run/walk in our picnic shelter.  Participants will receive a choice of long sleeve t-shirts and custom-designed Lapham Peak awards for run winners. Colorama is a major fundraiser for Lapham Peak State Forest Improvements.

5K and 10K start promptly at 10a.m.  Please arrive in time to pick up your number and t-shirt (if ordered) at the Trecker Lodge near Homestead Hollow.  Walkers may start after the runners, after they pick up their numbers and ordered t-shirts at the Plantation Path start.

Free prize drawing winners will be announced at 9:45am, eligible to those who have registered by 9:40 am. Pick up your prizes after your run/walk.

T-Shirts

T-shirts may be ordered in adult S through XXL. There is an additional charge of $2 for the XXL.  Smokey Bear participants age 10 and under will receive a youth t-shirt.
