Join us October 8 for “Rick’s Run” at a new location, Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm! Rick’s Run honors the memory of beloved FSRC runners, including Rick O’ Donnell, Larry Key, and John Godinet. These runners embody the traits we most admire: character, perseverance, kindness, and a profound joy in sharing their love of running.
