Runners of all ages are invited to register for Prescott’s Fort Town Night Run, taking place on May 5, 2018.  This fundraising event in support of the SKBP Venturers of Scouts Canada begins in the walls of Fort Wellington National Historic Site to the blasting of a cannon and follows a course throughout Prescott that highlights over 40 historic homes and sites.

 

There are three events occurring this year.  The 5k run/walk starts at 8:45pm and goes along the St. Lawrence River before heading through the streets of Prescott’s old town.  The 10k run begins at 8:30 pm and goes out to the Battle of the Windmill site before returning to join the 5k course.  New this year, at 8pm, is a 1k Kids Fun Run around the grounds of Fort Wellington for ages 10 and under.

 

All participants will receive a t-shirt, medal, swag bag, and a headlamp to illuminate their discoveries along the way.  The 5k and 10k races will be chip-timed.  There will be prizes for the winners, and top finishers in each age category will be recognized.

 

There will be entertainment before, during and after the races.  Local band Happy Crap will perform, and there will be refreshments, a photo booth, vendors, and costumed re-enactors on site.
