Tomorrow is the day! 

Are you excited as we are? Our third annual Holyoke Pride Rainbow Run is coming up tomorrow morning We hope your training has been going well, and you've been hydrating well through some pretty warm days. 

Here are the important details for race morning:
Bib pickup and same day registration will begin at 8:30 a.m. in the lower floor of the Holyoke Elks building, which can be accessed around the back of the building. Ample parking is available in the Elks lot. We ask that you arrive no later than 9:40 to get you checked in so that we can start promptly at 10. Keep in mind, there is roughly a quarter mile walk down to the start from the gate. 
Both the 5K run and 1 mile walk will start at 10. Curves will be marked with arrows and/or cones and there will be a water stop about halfway through. 

Please note that dogs are not allowed at public reservoirs without service animal documentation, including Ashley Reservoir, per the Holyoke Water Commission.
