Description
Join us for the inaugural Ottauquechee River Trail (ORT) Firecracker 5K on Saturday, July 4th, 2026. Part of Woodstock’s 250th Celebration honoring the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the Firecracker 5K also will raise funds to support the ongoing maintenance of the Ottauquechee River Trail.
The Firecracker 5K is family-friendly, and the route is mostly flat, easy to walk or run, and surrounded by lots of great nature! The Walk/Run will start at 9AM at the ORT kiosk in Woodstock’s 0 Maxham Meadow Way and follow the Ottauquechee River as it runs along beautiful hay fields, a vernal pool, and Woodstock’s 150-year-old rail bed. The Firecracker 5K is intended to be a "fun run" and it will be untimed.
Sign up early! Registration is limited. Parking is available but limited, either at East End Park or Sunset Farms, so please plan to carpool, ride a bike, or walk to the event if possible. Beverages and snacks will be available after the race.
Bring the whole family, except your dog! Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed to join the participant during the event.
The Firecracker 5K is not to be missed!! Mark your calendar and tell your family and friends!
