Description

This is our 3rd year hosting the Chesterfield FALL Terrain 5K.  Our main objective for this event is to race for a good cause as well as providing a 5K run/walk that is fun and enjoyable for everyone!  We've been donating to local charities in and around Chesterfield.   For our 1st year we raised money to Briella's Friends Foundation and on our 2nd year to Strides 4 Gianluca.  

This year we are adding High School and Middle School division for the 5K.  Participants should be athletes of the Cross Country team.  We are inviting local schools namely: Northern Burlington District, Bordentown, Allentown and Hamilton.  This is to promote camaraderie and sportsmanship among neighboring towns around Chesterfield.  We will be giving monetary donation to the running department of the winning schools.  Also, we are giving 1st place trophy to the winning schools.

Our charity this year is The Miracle League of Mercer County, most of the proceeds will be given to this nonprofit  organization.
