This year's race takes place on August 8, 2026, beginning at 8:00AM at Carpenters Park. Participants can choose between a 5K Run or a 3K Walk, making this event welcoming for runners, walkers, families, and community members of all ages.

The race is part of Carpentersville's Jamboree Days Weekend, one of the village's most anticipated summer celebrations, filled with music, food, and family activities. Most importantly, your participation supports a great cause. Proceeds from the event benefit local charities and Rotary community programs, including scholarships for students, winter coats for children, and other initiatives that strengthen our community.
