Road Race
This year’s race holds special meaning as we dedicate the event in memory of two beloved Eastham neighbors, Kit & Jerry, who were known throughout the community for their kindness, generosity, and dedication to others. In their honor, 50% of race proceeds will be donated to the Kit & Jerry Foundation for Good, helping continue the spirit of kindness and giving back that they shared with so many.
