Nanuet, NY – The Greater Nanuet Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce its upcoming 5K Race/Walk event taking place on Sunday, May 7, 2023. This exciting event is a fundraiser that supports Nanuet and Beyond’s scholarship/grant program and related educational activities.
Participants can expect a fun-filled day of competition and community spirit. The race will start and finish in front of Nanuet High School and will begin at 8:30 AM. Runners can sign in starting at 7:00 AM. Each runner will receive a bib, timer, and official completion time, and the first 150 participants who complete the actual 5K race (not including the virtual or 1-mile walk) will receive a medal. To ensure a prompt starting time and proper supplies on race day we strongly urge runners to pre-register at the site below.
The top male and female overall finishers in the 5K race will receive a $50 Gift Certificate, second-place overall finishers will receive a $25 GC, and third-place overall finishers will receive a $15 GC. The race is open to participants of all ages and will be held rain or shine. Age groups for the run/walk include: Up to 15 years, 16-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70, and 71+.
During pre-registration, participants have the option to purchase a race t-shirt. To ensure shirts are available on race day, t-shirt orders must be placed by April 15. (Sample t-shirt viewable as part of registration option). The one-mile walk is available for those who prefer a shorter course, while the virtual 5K can be completed at your own pace, outside, on a treadmill, or in your neighborhood and both options help support a great cause.
Donations and registration fees from this event are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law and support Nanuet and Beyond’s efforts. Join us in supporting this fantastic cause and come out to show your support for the runners.
