STATION LOOP RAMBLE coming Sunday, October 14, 2018
Participate in one of these races which incorporate the Mass Central Rail Trail in New Braintree and Hardwick. The 5-Mile Classic and Speed Walk are hilly road and trail races with a flat fast finish. Kid's One Mile and 5k Run/Walk are entirely on a flat course.

The race begins and ends at the site of the former New Braintree train station, travels past scenic farmland, and through deep woods, skirting the Ware River.

Entry fee is $20, with discounts for children and veterans.
Register now on the event registration page.

Contact Cynthia at 413-477-8229 or chenshaw@EQLT.org with questions. Hope to see you there!
