5k Fun Run Run Walk

The Piermont Fire 5K - raising money and supporting Volunteer Fire and EMS in Rockland County and the Lower Hudson Valley! Come join us for a beautiful walk run along the Piermont Pier overlooking the Hudson River!

The Piermont Fire 5K is an event to support, help recruit new members, and raise money for our participating Charity Partners. The Empire Hose Company #1 (aka Piermont Fire Department) created the event to kick off its 175th-year anniversary celebration. 2026 will be our 175th year serving our community. Over the years all of our mutual aid partners in the Fire & EMS services have supported our collective safety and with this event, we want to support them.

These volunteer organizations dedicate the majority of their time to responding to calls, training their members, and managing the organizations - keeping our communities safe. Fundraising often takes a back seat to other priorities and recruiting new members continues to be challenging. Membership and volunteerism are the lifeblood of their success.

Join us for a beautiful day overlooking the Hudson River as we support our local Volunteer Fire and EMS organizations. Let's help the organizations that serve our communities.

    In 2003, 11-year-old Edgemont student Taylor Matthews was diagnosed with bone cancer. Taylor wanted something good to come from her battle against cancer, so she created Tay-Bandz to raise public awareness about childhood cancer and fund pediatric cancer research. For many years our community has gathered to support Relay for Tay, an event honoring Taylor. As a tribute to Taylor and to extend the focus of the Relay event, we have created “Colors Against Cancer,” for which we are glad to have continued community support. In honor of Taylor's memory and to continue to proudly support the fight against cancer, on May 4, 2025 the "Colors Against Cancer" color run will be held.

    The Mother’s Day REXTRAVAGANZA supports:

    Rex Runs Kindly & NAMI of Rockland

    This event is about community, compassion, and showing up for ourselves and each other. There are no winners and no losers. Everyone is welcome!!

    🏞️ A Unique & Historic Course

    Clausland Mountain is more than a beautiful trail — it’s a historic Cold War site, once home to a Nike missile silo designed to protect New York City.

    Today, the same ground that once symbolized fear and defense now represents movement, healing, and peace — a powerful setting for a run rooted in mental health and reflection.

    2 fully manned aid stations total

    👕 What You Get

    All participants receive:

    • Optional T-shirt

    • Custom race medal

    • A meaningful experience you’ll carry with you

    🎶 Event Atmosphere

    We’re AIMING to have live acoustic music to create a relaxed, uplifting vibe at the start/finish area — something that feels more like a community gathering than a traditional race. (If all goes as planned)

    🌼 Why the Day Before Mother’s Day?

    This event honors mothers, caregivers, and the people who show up for us — including those we’ve lost, those we run for, and those still fighting quiet battles.

    • Run it for your mom.

    • Run it for someone you miss.

    • Run it for yourself.

    • 🧡 Join Us

    Come run, walk, or loop your way through a meaningful morning on the trails — where every mile supports mental health, sobriety, and kindness.

Their vision is to embody the culture and people of their community in every mile they run. They are famous for "owning Monday nights" with an all-weather social run, and have expanded to include track nights and Saturday long runs, welcoming all paces to join their journey.
