Dear Hallowed Half and Fright Night 5k Participants,
This is obviously a challenging time for everyone and there is a lot of uncertainty in the air. We hope this news finds you safe and healthy.
Being runners ourselves, this is the most difficult decision to ever make but we must always put the safety of our participants, volunteers, staff, spectators, and emergency personal first and foremost. Therefore, it is with great disappointment that we are announcing the cancellation of the 2020 Hallowed Half and Fright Night 5k.
We DEEPLY appreciate your business and the trust you've put in us through the years. We always do our best to do right by you in the face of unexpected challenges even at great cost to us. We have been watching the development of COVID-19 very closely and are trying to do the best thing for our runners, volunteers and the community where we hold this event. We wanted to wait as long as possible to make this decision to ensure we were making the most informed decision. This decision was not made lightly.
We will be offering you multiple options for all registered participants. Details and options for are below.
You will need to make a choice by Monday, August 31st.
