On May 16th, we’re coming together as a community to support an important cause. The First Annual Hampton Alzheimer’s 5K aims to bring 250 participants together to raise over $5,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association.

This event is proudly sponsored by Quiet Corner Winery, and we hope many of our friends, customers, and neighbors will join us to run, walk, and support families affected by Alzheimer’s.

Please Share this so we can hit our goal!

Every step helps raise awareness and funding for research and support services.

📅 May 16th

📍164 Main Street, Hampton, Connecticut (Town Hall starting line)

Let’s make this first year a huge success for a cause that impacts so many families.

    Why Run Woodstock? This grassroots community event has raised over $40,000 for Community Kitchens of Northeastern Connecticut (CKNECT) and other local charities. Every registration supports food access throughout the region. Our motto is, "It takes a community to run a marathon"—and you'll feel that support every step of the way from our incredible volunteers, neighbors who gather to cheer on the runners, local sponsors, and fellow runners.

    Course Details: The challenging course features rural roads with blind turns, some unpaved sections, and shared traffic. Our community-driven race emphasizes safety, camaraderie, and the satisfaction of conquering a tough course for a great cause.
