The Oregon Tech Twilight Fun Run is hosted by Oregon Tech Wellbeing in collaboration with the Campus Activities Board and Sky Lakes Medical Center. This year, we have partnered to combine the Fun Run with the annual Music Garden!
Route: The Fun Run will begin at Eulalona (formerly known as Kit Carson) Park, proceeding up the trail that runs parallel to Crater Lake Parkway, to El Dorado, up Daggett, and then right on Bryant Williams Way and around campus, coming into the main entrance of campus and ending at the College Union. Professional timing services will be provided by Athletic Timing who track participants with chipped custom bibs.
Finish: The finish line will be at the main entrance to campus, near the College Union. Participants will then walk to the academic quad for the Music Garden, where can enjoy the music, food trucks, activities, and Beer Garden (21 and older, cash and ID required). A closing awards ceremony will occur at 6:15pm on the Music Garden stage; awards will be given for overall finishers and by age group.
Registration: Registration fee will allow participants to run/walk the event, get a t-shirt, receive one free meal ticket to the food trucks, and gain entrance to the Music Garden at no extra cost! Students and children (up to 18) can participate for free, but they DO need to register - be sure to click on the registration for Students and Children to do so. Participants who register the day of the event may not receive a t-shirt, will pay a slightly higher entrance fee, and there will be no cash accepted at Check-in - so be sure to register ahead of time!
Details for Participants: This is a family-friendly environment and walkers and runners alike are welcome; the route is paved throughout. Although we love furry friends, dogs or other pets are not allowed (aside from registered service animals). We will have volunteers placed throughout the route ringing cowbells for encouragement, with traffic control support in place. Hootie (Oregon Tech's mascot) will be joining us, too!
Volunteer: We are seeking volunteers to assist with event set-up, check-in, t-shirt distribution, and route support. Volunteers will receive an event shirt, ticket to the food trucks, and entrance to the Music Garden! If you'd like to volunteer, click "Volunteer" at the bottom of the page below.
