This 5k Run/Walk is Beacon’s only nonprofit sporting event dedicated to saving animals’ lives. On this day, animal lovers and athletes of all ages lace up and hit the pavement in support of ARF where 100% of the profits go to the Animal Rescue Foundation.

When: May 21, 2023, 10AM Start – Rain or Shine
Where: Memorial Park, Robert Cahill Drive, Beacon, NY 12508

All in-person participating dogs must be well-behaved and non-aggressive with people and other dogs. All dogs must be leashed and current on all vaccines. 

Strollers are welcomed as well, and while traffic is pretty light this time of day, the roads are open to traffic. Those with strollers should use extreme caution, especially when approaching other runners, and allow ample space, particularly on hills. We recommend strollers start toward the back just so that the large pack has a chance to spread out a bit to minimize any chance of injury.
