Thanks for the Trails 5K & Kids Fun Run

About the event

Join us for our 9th Annual Thanks for the Trails 5k and Kids Fun Run the Saturday after Thanksgiving at Patton Park. The Kids' Run will begin at 9:30AM and the 5k will start at 10AM.  Using a scenic and challenging course, this will be an event for all!  Super prizes for top finishers, and many other terrific prizes. 

A Boston Marathon Entry will be given to a lucky bib number holder, so be sure to enter during online registration! Free swag will be given to registrants as long as supplies last, so be sure to register early.   We are building on the fine tradition enjoyed by so many for many years with Gabe's Run, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Gabriel Pacione Memorial Scholarship. Whether you seek a personal record or camaraderie with old friends and rivals, this event is for you

About South Hamilton

Learn more about the host city, South Hamilton.

Scenic view of

South Hamilton is a postal address assigned to ZIP code 01982 by the Postal Service and is part of the town of Hamilton, Essex County, Massachusetts, United States. The designation arose in the 1960s when the Postal Service built a new modern post office in downtown Hamilton with the intention of closing the original post office 2 miles north on the same road. Due to public objection, the original post office was preserved and remains open to this day. To distinguish between the two post offices in an era when the use of ZIP code was not yet mandatory, the new post office was designated the "South Hamilton" post office.
