NOTE: Due to current spikes in COVID cases, the 2021 Waterford Fall Foliage Road Race, Walk, Fun Run, and Chili Cook-Off has been canceled. The primary focus of the Waterford 5K Race Committee is always Safety First. A great deal of planning goes into race day, so we waited until now to make the hard decision.
The 22nd annual Waterford Fall Foliage 5K Road Race/Fitness Walk and 1 Mile Fun Run is scheduled for Oct. 10 at Waterford Flats, Route 35/37.
Free entries are offered this year for the Fun Run event for children 12 and younger. The road race/fitness walk entry fees are $20 for early registration and $25 on race day.
The fun run will begin at 11:30 a.m., followed at noon by the race/walk.
There is plenty of parking within walking distance of the registration table and start line.
The event has allowed the Tony Waldeier Scholarship Fund to give more than $74,000 since 2000 to 101 students. Even though the race was cancelled in 2020, six $1,000 scholarships went to Waterford Memorial School graduates. There are already six new applicants, and this year’s deadline is Monday, April 26.
