Chester Kiwanis 5K

The Chester Kiwanis 5K is an annual community race in Chester, New York, on May 22, 2027, with both the 5K run and the 5K walk starting at 8:45 a.m. It serves as a fundraiser for the Kiwanis Club of Chester and draws more than 300 participants.

Alongside the race, there is a hot breakfast and a raffle. Chester Presbyterian Church provides breakfast for participants, with a donation option for others. T-shirts are handed out on a first-come, first-served basis. The pre-selected raffle features a range of prizes, some of which require winners to be over 18. The race supports the club's mission of helping children around the world and is part of the Grand Prix, backed by local sponsors and organizers.
