RESILIENT SERVICE MEMBERS CLASSIC (5k, 20 miler, 50k)

The Resilient Service Members Classic is a trail race that takes place in Raccoon Creek State Park, Pennsylvania. The event offers three different courses: a 5K walk/run, a 20-mile course, and a challenging 50K course. The race is a fundraiser for Outdoor Immersion, a non-profit organization that provides outdoor adventure, recreation, and fitness programs for veterans and military service members. The mission of the organization is to help veterans move from isolation to community through time spent in nature.

Registration for the event is open to anyone who wants to support our veterans and their families. Awards will be given to the top male and female finishers in each age group. Participants can also fundraise and have their registration fee waived if they meet the minimum fundraising amount for their race distance.

The 5K course is an out-and-back route that is suitable for walkers or runners. The 50K and 20-mile courses are primarily single-track with a variety of terrain and hills. There are aid stations along the way to provide support for participants.

On race day, there will be a presentation of Colors, the National Anthem, and stories from local veterans. Post-race hospitality will be held inside and outside of the Recreation Hall. Donations to Outdoor Immersion are welcome and tax-deductible.

Business owners have the opportunity to sponsor the event and support veterans transitioning back into civilian life.
