Registration is now open for the Rockport Public Library Donut Dash 5K to be held on Saturday, June 13, at 8:00 am. The family fun run and walk will be held in tandem with the Town of Rockport’s Second Annual Donut Festival. Proceeds from the 5K benefit the Friends of the Rockport Public Library.
The Donut Dash starts in beautiful Rockport village in front of the Rockport Library. The course travels along the coast through Beauchamp Point, offering fantastic ocean views. Water and snacks (including donuts!) will be provided after the race in Rockport's Marine Park, while supplies last. This event is open to runners and walkers of all ages and skills. Strollers are allowed, but be mindful of traffic as most of the race does not have a sidewalk.
Early registration costs $25 for adults 18 and older, and $20 for ages 11 to 17. Kids 10 and under must also register, but there is no charge for them to participate. SAVE TIME AND MONEY by signing up online now! Race day registration is $30 for everyone 11 and up and will occur from 7:00 to 7:45 a.m. at the Rockport Library. The race begins at 8:00 a.m. The first 100 people to register will receive a free Donut Dash drawstring backpack. If you have any questions, please contact the Rockport Library at 236-3642 or rpl@rockport.lib.me.us.
