The Bovina 5K

The second annual Bovina 5K Run and Walk is back on Saturday, July 26, at Creamery Park, 1394 County Hwy 6, Bovina, NY 13740. This year, the event is raising funds to support the restoration of the Bovina Playground. 

Runners can search “Bovina” on RunSignUp.com or visit runsignup.com/Race/NY/BovinaCenter/TheBovina5kRun to register. T-shirts are guaranteed for the first 150 signups. There will be a free 1-mile kids race following the main event.

Handmade awards and local prizes will be presented to the top three female and male finishers and the winners of the kids run.

The Bovina 5K organizing group is currently accepting business sponsors and volunteers. If interested, please contact thebovina5k@gmail.com.

Last year's event saw 160 participants, a quarter of whom traveled to attend the event from outside of Delaware County, and raised $4000.00 for the Bovina Center Fire Department and Emergency Medical Services.

The Bovina 5K is hosted and sponsored by Livestock Foundation in partnership with community volunteers Alan Davidson, Becky and Peter Manning, and the Catskill Mountain Club. The event takes place with the invaluable support of Delaware County Economic Development, Bovina EMS and Fire Department, Town of Bovina, Delaware County Sheriff’s Office, Delaware County Department of Public Works, New York State Police, and community volunteers.
