Sunday, Feb. 26—MANCHESTER—The Komen Vermont Snowshoe for the Cure on Sunday, Feb. 26 is only a few weeks away. Participants can register for either the 3K or 5K walk or the 3K run.
Join in the February fun for the whole family on the Sun Bowl Nordic Trails at Stratton Mountain. Registration opens at 7:30 a.m.. The 3K race starts 9 a.m., with the 3K and 5K walks starting at 9:10 a.m. There’s also a free Kids Snowshoe Dash at 8:45 a.m. (no registration needed).
Don’t own snowshoes? No problem. Tubbs Snowshoes, Inc. is bringing free demos (supply will be limited). There will be chances to win a pair of new snowshoes, or other great prizes, in the event-day raffle.
This event raised over $15,000 this past winter. There is an amazing prize for the top fundraiser: an 18-karat yellow gold Tubbs-style snowshoe charm, designed and hand made by Von Bargen’s Jewelry, on an 18-karat yellow gold, 18” spiga chain equipped with a lobster clasp.
Register at komennewengland.org; find Snowshoe for the Cure under Events. There will also be registration, and pre-registration bib pick-up Saturday, Feb 25, 5-8 p.m. at Eastern Mountain Sports in Manchester Center.
