Pancake Breakfast Following the Race

Following the race, invite your non-running/walking family members and friends to join in the fun with a hearty Pancake Breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, coffee, tea, juice. Just $5 per person, the event is sponsored by the Tewksbury Events Committee. Proceeds will benefit the Tewksbury Patriotic Activities Committee.

Wear your costume and participate in our costume contest. A kids costume contest will also occur after the race during the pancake breakfast.

The proceeds from the run will benefit Tewksbury students through scholarships.

Tewksbury Rotary Club has a proud tradition in the community, raising money for student scholarships through our annual Taste of the Town event at the Tewksbury Country Club. In ten years the club has awarded more than $100,000 in scholarships. The Rotary Club brings together business and professional leaders who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
