Join us November 25th for the 14th annual Gorge apres Gorge!

Join us for this year’s Gorge après Gorge 5k Trail Run and Free Family Fun Walk on November 25th! This annual event is entering its 14th year, scheduled on the Sunday after Thanksgiving at the Chesterfield Gorge. Gorge après Gorge is a fundraiser for the Zephyr Rapinchuk Memorial Fund and Hilltown Land Trust.

The 5k trail run begins at 9:30 AM and the walk starts at 11 AM. Runners and walkers use a well-marked course with a beautiful view of the Westfield River. Hot beverages and a community potluck round off this event, which awards handmade hats to the winners, a home baked cookie medal to all race participants, and great raffle prizes that are donated by local businesses.
