Winston Prouty Foliage 5K and Little Leaf Dash

Join us for a 5K Trail Run and Little Leaf Dash to raise funds for the Winston Prouty Center for Child and Family Development!

Come support our mission and enjoy a run or walk through our campus forest and fields.

The 5K route is a moderately challenging race through forested trails (75%) and open field (25%). The course traverses 510' of elevation.

For families and little ones, there is a special half-mile LITTLE LEAF DASH, which will be on sidewalk and open field, with a slight elevation change. This route is appropriate for young children, strollers and babes in arms!

2026 course map coming soon. See last year's map here: Trail map
