TRUMBULL, CT | Sunday, October 18, 2026Registration Open
WELCOME TO THE 36th CONSECUTIVE YEAR OF THE GREAT PUMPKIN CLASSIC!!! PLEASE HELP US CELEBRATE OUR AMAZING EVENT- STARTED IN 1991 BY OUR RACE DIRECTOR MARTY SCHAIVONE - A BIOLOGY TEACHER AT THS (1977-2012) It's difficult to remember that far back - none of us were thinking how long this 5k would last. But 349 people started on a journey that has continued to raise money for the Trumbull High Scholarship Foundation for 35 years. Marty has retired from THS, a lot has changed, but the reputation built over 3+ decades is solidly in place. We are planning a party and we hope you'll be part of it. Our food has always been a large part of the attraction. Back again- PLASKO’S Farm Cider Donuts will also be with us for your enjoyment! Village Bagels with pumpkin mini bagels. And lots more snacks. WE ORDERED 450 SHIRTS & sold out last year so don't wait. Sign up fast and have a chance for our long sleeve beauty! Guaranteed sizing ends 10/4, after that ‘as available’ Shirt color to be determined by our professional shirt color picking team. Fabric and colors may also depend on inventory, tariffs and what's on sale.
