This 5K is a fun, healthy, (and sober) annual event to raise awareness about substance use disorder, addiction, and recovery and the intense stigma that keeps people who are struggling from getting the help they need.
Runners, walkers, and strollers of any age and ability are welcome. Registration is $20 and if you register online, you will get a free t-shirt. Any profit after vendors are paid will go to Turning Point of Windham County, our community's drop-in recovery center.
