Celebrate the Fall Season with this family friendly event! The Pumpkin Run benefits Haddam-Killingworth Youth and Family Services by supporting their programs for youth and families in the areas of counseling, substance abuse prevention, positive youth development, family programming, juvenile restorative justice, and social services. The money raised through the Pumpkin Run sponsorships and runner registrations is an essential and meaningful way to support the Haddam-Killingworth community and contribute to direct services, programs, and activities for our youth and families. Please visit our website www.hkyfs.org to learn more about the work that we do!
