Center for Wildlife Studies is holding its 3rd annual 5K & 5 Mile fundraiser in cooperation with Marshall Wharf Brewing Company in Belfast, Maine. Come join us for a fun run/walk on the Belfast Rail Trail. Marshall Wharf will host a post-race party featuring Grateful Dead music by DownEast Dead. We will award prizes for top finishers and best costumes. All race entrants will receive a ticket for one beer from Marshall Wharf. Come jam with us!
Funds from the race go to supporting wildlife conservation in Maine and the Center for Wildlife Studies’ commitment to delivering community education programs in the region, encouraging environmental awareness and stewardship.
