COURSE MAP
The course will begin and end at the winery. There will be vines and there will be wines! This is a 2 lap cross country style route that starts by heading down the lane then comes back for a few loops through the vineyards. There are some areas of uneven footing but it is very suitable for both runners and walkers. Click here for an interactive course map
CHARITY PARTNER
We are excited to announce that our local charity partner for this event will be the Connecticut Chapter of Alzheimer’s Association!
The Alzheimer’s Association® is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer’s care, support and research. Founded in 1980 by a group of family caregivers and individuals interested in research, the Association includes our home office in Chicago, a public policy office in Washington, D.C. and a presence in communities across the country.
Worldwide, more than 55 million people are living with dementia. In the United States alone, more than 6 million have Alzheimer’s, and over 11 million are providing unpaid care.
