Halloween Trick or Trot 5K & Monster Fun Run:


The Halloween Trick or Trot will take place on Sunday, October 26, 2014 at the Hillside Elementary School in Needham, MA. Come join us for a fun and healthy Halloween-themed event. Costumes are not mandatory, but are strongly encouraged!

Event Details:

Check-in: Check-in/registration will begin at 7 a.m. on October 26th. If you've already picked up your bib on 10/25, you do not need to show up at 7 a.m. on October 26th. You can show up closer to your registered event time. Just be sure to leave yourself enough time to park!

Kids Fun Run: The Monster Fun Run for children ages 12 years and under starts at 8:30 AM and will take place at the Hillside Elementary School field.

5K: The 5K Run/Walk starts and ends at the Hillside Elementary School in Needham, MA. Awards will follow the completion of the 5K and will take place at Hillside Elementary School.

Race Proceeds:  This race is hosted in an effort to raise money for the Hillside Elementary School. While the event is raising money for Hillside, we hope to make it a community-wide event and invite everyone to join. We hope to see the streets of Needham filled with fun costumes!

Registration: The 5K will cost $25 per participant if you pre-register before 6 p.m., October 25, 2014 (pre-registration closes at that time) and $10 for the Monster Fun Run. The first 125 that pre-register for the 5K will receive a special moisture-wicking performance beanie customized for this event - be sure to sign up early!! All children aged 12 years and under that register for the 5K receive complimentary admission into the Monster Fun Run.

Note, if you sign up a child aged 12 years or younger for the 5K, you do not need to also sign them up for the Fun Run - they will get the bib for the 5K and will have automatic entry into the Fun Run if they want to participate. They will also be automatically eligible for the free prize that is given to all fun run participants as a part of their 5K entry.

Day of race registration will be $30 per 5K participant and $15 for Monster Fun Run participant.

Please note: If you pre-register online, there is a $2.25 service charge for the 5K and a $1.50 service charge for the Fun Run.

Course Information:


5K Details and Course:  The 5K will be chip-timed. We have designed a 5K course that should appeal to a wide range of participants, from walkers and novice runners to the elite runners. Both runners and walkers of all levels are welcome to complete the same 5K loop. Please note, streets will remain open to traffic. Dogs are not allowed. Strollers, if in use, are strongly encouraged to stay on sidewalks or to the sides to ensure that no runners are impeded. The 5K route will have signs and volunteers directing the way. There will be a water station along the route.

Directions:


Travel and Parking:  For those driving, Hillside Elementary School is located at 28 Glen Gary Rd, Needham, MA.  The easiest route is Exit 19B off of Route 128/I-95. Take Highland Ave to West Street. Glen Gary is off of West St.

Parking in the school lot is tight, so we encourage you to plan accordingly and/or carpool. We will have overflow parking at the Senior Center parking lot (located at the intersection of Hillside and West Streets - right near the Needham Heights MBTA Commuter Rail Station). There are side streets within a relatively close walk to the school on which you can park.  Please be mindful of our Needham neighbors!
