Montague Elks Charity Chase

Lace up your running shoes and join us for a morning of fun, fitness, and community spirit at the Second Annual Montague Elks Charity Chase 5K and Fun Run/Walk! Following a successful inaugural event that brought together runners, walkers, volunteers, and local businesses from across Franklin County, we're excited to make this year's Charity Chase even bigger and better. For more than 50 years, Montague Elks Lodge #2521 has proudly supported local youth, veterans, families, and community organizations. This year, proceeds from the Charity Chase will benefit the Montague Elks Scholarship Committee, helping local students pursue their educational goals and invest in their futures. Whether you're a seasoned runner looking to set a new personal record on our chip-timed 5K course, a family seeking a fun and active morning together in our 2,521-yard Fun Run/Walk (a nod to our lodge number), or simply someone who wants to support a great cause, there's a place for you at the starting line. Participants of all ages and abilities are welcome, and all finishers will receive a commemorative finisher medal. By participating in the Montague Elks Charity Chase, you're doing more than completing a race—you're helping provide scholarship opportunities for local students and supporting the Elks' continued commitment to serving our community. Visit this page for registration information, course details, and ways to support the event through our sponsorship and donation opportunities, including Charitable Contributor, Justice Advocate, Brotherly Benefactor, Fidelity Friend, and Heart of the Herd levels. We can't wait to see you on race day!
