Glens Falls, NY – Join Tri-County United Way in the Glens Falls City Park June 6 from 11am – 2pm for our 2nd annual .5k race, the race for the rest of us!

Register today for this fun, family (including pets) way to give back to our community through our annual .5k race. Registration includes an event t-shirt, .5k sticker, free fair food, activities for the kids, dog training tips and an opportunity to win team and costume contests with great prizes! We’ll have music in the gazebo and a “beer garden” hosted by the Queensbury Hotel and Mean Max.
Join us for a family fun (and COVID safe) day and meet our nonprofit member agencies who are working diligently to help our community recover from this devastating pandemic.
