(Hamilton, NY- April 2014)The Chenango Canal Association and Clean Water Coalition, a student-run organization from Colgate University are sponsoring a 5K Fun-Run & Walk along the Chenango Canal Towpath Trail at the Hamilton Municipal Airport on Saturday, May 3 at 9:30 a.m. The walkers will begin their route at 10 a.m. This is a trail run/walk, so please wear appropriate footwear.
The $10 registration fee raises money for the History On the Summit project that brings educational photos and school programs to the Chenango Canal Cottage Museum in Bouckville. Part of the money raised will go toward renovating the building exterior.
Registration begins at 9 a.m. at the airport on Wings Way. The Colgate Cruiser will pick up students from Donovan’s Pub bus stop and take them to Wings Way that morning. The regular Colgate Cruiser runs at noon to take runners and walkers back to campus.
We invite the public to register at www.chenangocanal.org. The Chenango Canal Association is a 501(c)3 organization. Parking, rest room and refreshments are available. Area businesses are helping to support this first-time event and we appreciate your support by registering to walk or run the Towpath Trail.
