Apple Harvest Run 2026

Join Us for the 37th Annual Apple Harvest Run!

The Apple Harvest Run is more than a race - it's a community tradition that brings neighbors, families, and runners together to support the students of the Dr. John C. Page Elementary School.

Whether you're running the USATF-certified 5-Mile or 5K, cheering from the sidelines, participating in the 1-Mile Kids Fun Run, or making a donation, every participant helps make a difference. Proceeds from the event directly fund educational programs, classroom resources, and enrichment opportunities that benefit Page School students and staff.

After the race, stay and enjoy a festive fall celebration featuring family activities, local food and beverages, community vendors, silent auction, and more.

For 37 years, the Apple Harvest Run has been powered by the generosity and spirit of our community. Join us this fall to run, celebrate, and invest in the future of our local students.
