Sat 8th July 2023

2 races

Organiser's Description

The River Run for the Roots is a 5K run/walk from the Common Roots Brewery to benefit its nonprofit, the Common Roots Foundation. This looped course will start/finish in the Park & Ride lot behind Common Roots at 58 Saratoga Ave., South Glens Falls, NY. The scenic course winds through the village of South Glens Falls, including the Betar Byway along the Hudson River. About a half mile of the course ventures onto a gravel path (the SGF Beach Bikeway) while the rest is paved.ย 
The race will be a fundraiser for the Common Roots Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that aims to sustain and improve the quality of life in northeastern New York. The Foundation supports local efforts in the areas of community wellness, environmental stewardship, and assisting those in times of need.
Come join us after the race and enjoy beer and food at the brewery!
