Sherrill Fireworks Run

Lace up for a meaningful journey at the Sherrill Fireworks Run, a cherished 5K event set to take place on Saturday, July 25, 2026, in the welcoming community of Sherrill, NY. Starting and finishing in the picturesque Gazebo Area at 377 Sherrill Road, this race is more than just a run; it's a vibrant tribute to Dwight L. Evans, the former mayor who was instrumental in bringing the first fireworks display and the beloved Sherrill Gazebo to life. Participants can expect typical race day conditions with highs around 82F and lows around 61F, and only a 16% chance of precipitation, making for a pleasant summer morning run.

Beyond the scenic course through Sherrill, what truly distinguishes this 5K is its profound community impact. All proceeds from the Sherrill Fireworks Run directly benefit the Sherrill Kenwood Library and the greater VVS Community, honoring Dwight L. Evans's passion for reading and local engagement. As part of the 2026 Route 20 Road Challenge Series, this event offers a fantastic opportunity for both seasoned runners and casual walkers to connect with the community, chase a personal best, and contribute to worthy causes.

Runners will find themselves immersed in a spirited atmosphere, culminating back at the Gazebo for post-race snacks and an awards ceremony, celebrating achievements across various age groups. Whether you're aiming for a fast time or simply want to enjoy a supportive community event, the Sherrill Fireworks Run promises a memorable and impactful experience.
