From the Organizer
Run, Walk or Soar with us for the 6th annual Hopson Trail Runs- Give Cancer the Bird. Located in the Hamlet of Honeoye, you will experience beautiful fall foliage throughout the entire course without the annoyance of vehicle traffic. There are two distances available, the traditional 5K and the only 9K in New York! You may have to dodge a few rabbits or squirrels or yield to a fairy or two in Hopson's Forest! The majority of the course is a combination of wide grassy trails through WoodsEdge Retreat and established trails through Sandy Bottom Park. If we’re lucky, our pair of resident Bald Eagles will guide the way. This year's beneficiary will be Embrace Your Sisters. Their Mission is to provide support and hope to people in our communities struggling with Breast Cancer through financial assistance, education and informational resources.
