Description

Due to the anticipated weather conditions this weekend, the City of New Haven has canceled all outdoor activities in the city parks.

As a result, our 35th Annual Walk, James Barber 5K Run & Bike Event has been postponed and will be rescheduled for a later date in October.

We are currently working to confirm a new date and will share that information with everyone by the end of next week.


Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
