CORNWALL- On Saturday, October 21, 2023, join the Hudson Highlands Nature Museum for their 7th Annual Meadows and Trails 5K at the Outdoor Discovery Center, located at 120 Muser Drive, (off Angola Road) in Cornwall.  Race packet pickup and same-day registration will open at 9:00 a.m.  The 5K begins at 11:00 a.m., and the awards ceremony is scheduled for 11:45 a.m.

Enjoy the beauty of nature as you run or walk on trails through grassy fields, past lively ponds, over rolling hills, and through forests cloaked in Autumn colors.  The entire 5K course is off road on the Nature Museum’s 177 acre property and has been maintained to accommodate runners.  This important fundraiser directly supports the organization’s nature-based education programs provided to schools and families, fun and educational events throughout the year, and the care of their Animal Ambassadors!

5K registration can be found on the Nature Museum’s website at www.hhnm.org/mt5k .

Registration includes a race packet, t-shirt (first 150 registrations guaranteed), and post-race refreshments.  Medals will be awarded to the top three finishers in each age group.   Early Bird entry fee for ages 19 and up thru October 8 is $30.  Entry fee for ages 19 and up beginning October 9, 2023, is $40.

This event is rain or shine.  Please note, dogs are not allowed on the property, and running with a stroller is not permitted.  For more information and to register for this event, visit hhnm.org or call 845-534-5506.
