What is the Annual 5K?

Join us for the Annual Elverson Community 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run + Scavenger Hunt! This exciting event brings together runners, walkers, families, and community members for a morning of fitness, fun, and giving back.

The Elverson Community 5K and Fun Run is a yearly event that supports Anchored Ministries, a local nonprofit dedicated to providing basic necessities to communities in need. It also serves as the official kickoff to Elverson Day, a community celebration featuring live music, family-friendly activities, food vendors, and a grand fireworks display. Whether you’re a competitive runner, a casual jogger, or just looking for a fun way to support a great cause, there’s a place for you in this event!

What to expect?

  • 5K Race: A timed run open to all ages and abilities, with awards given in various age categories.
  • 1-Mile Fun Run & Scavenger Hunt: A non-competitive, family-friendly event where participants can enjoy a light run or walk while searching for hidden Anchored symbols along the route.
  • Community Impact: Every registration helps fund essential programs that provide clothing, food, and resources to individuals and families in need.
  • Sponsorship Opportunities: Businesses and individuals can support the event through sponsorships that include promotional benefits and race entries.
  • Post-Race Activities: Join the community for refreshments, an awards ceremony, and a celebration of local businesses and organizations.

Why participate?
