This event is BYOB and doors will open at 7:00 pm with tickets on sale for $25. Tickets may be purchased in advance online for $18.

The excitement continues Saturday, May 26th at 9:30 am with the Race for Reading, a color 5K in the 100-Acre Wood. This 9th annual event has expanded to a pledging/multi-organization event to support many area non-profits. Part of every racer's registration fee and collection of pledges support the MWV Rec Path. The Kennet High School Dance Team will be raising funds through a bake sale while Boy Scout Troop 150 North Conway will also be there selling food items. Local favorite, Rek'lis will be rocking out all morning at the event while the 21 and over crowd may enjoy Moat Mountain beer for a donation.
