Organiser's Description
Join us for the seventh annual 5K/1K run/walk along the beautiful Brandywine River through Hagley Museum's 235 acres. Proceeds from the run support Hagley's field trip fund for area schools. The previous events collectively raised enough money for over 2100 students to visit Hagley. Thank you for providing this opportunity to so many young people! In 2025, we will be "CHASING THE SUN," inspiring the young and young-at-heart to chase their goals. Come to the 5K/1K dressed in shades of RED, YELLOW, and ORANGE; or your favorite sun costume.
