From the Organizer
The Gateway Gallop is a community event that raises funds to support west side trails. Proceeds benefit the B&O Trail Association and the White Lick Creek and Vandalia Trail Alliance, helping advance trail development and maintenance across our community.
Each year, we are proud to be fueled by The Breakfast Company, who generously provides breakfast for race day. The pancakes are cooked and served hot by the amazing Wayne Township Fire Department, a race-day tradition our participants look forward to every year.
Come run, walk, or stroll, enjoy great pancakes, and support local trails while making a lasting impact in our community.
