The Rotary Club of Kingston, NY is sponsoring its Second Capital to Capital 5K run/walk this fall to benefit the Hudson Valley National Center for Veteran Reintegration. This year’s “C2C” is a hybrid 5K, which allows participants to join either Virtually or in Person.
-
Virtual participants can walk or run a 5 km (3.1 mi) distance on a trail or park in their hometown or elsewhere, anytime between Monday, October 4 and Sunday, October 17 2021.
-
In-Person participants will meet at 9 AM on Sunday, October 17 at the Senate House State Historic site at 296 Fair St in Kingston and run or walk to the Van Deusen House on Main Street in Hurley.
The Rotary Capital to Capital 5K commemorates the human story of the Burning of Kingston, when, in October 1777, over 2,000 Kingston refugees fled to the Town of Hurley as British soldiers burned their city to the ground. Participants who want to run or walk the route of the original refugees will be able to view a map of this route and register for the event at kingstonnyrotary.org
