Put together a team of three and join us on Thursday, June 23, 2016 at 6:00 PM for the first annual Gibbet Hill Cattle Run & BBQ! This unique relay race will challenge runners of all abilities while raising money for food pantries across Massachusetts.

We have mapped out a rugged and hilly 1.4 mile course which weaves through Gibbet Hill Farm. Your run will take you past our produce farm, through the black angus cattle herd and up to General Bancroft’s “castle” on top of Gibbet Hill. The race will consist of 6 loops for a total of 8.4 miles. Each runner will run the course twice in the following order: 1-2-3-1-2-3.  In some areas of the course, you’ll be running on the actual cow path worn in the hill by Gibbet Hill’s famous Black Angus herd!  You might want to leave your fancy new running shoes at home.

BARBECUE

Think you’ll work up an appetite? Directly after the race, chefs from each Webber Restaurant Group property will collaborate to create a barbecue that will be sure to satisfy your hunger. Also our friends from Narragansett will be on hand serving some of their new seasonal brews along with the classic Lager. Hi Neighbor!

BENEFICIARIES

Entry fee is $225 per team ($75 per runner), which includes the race, barbecue and a frosty Narragansett. THE ENTIRE ENTRY FEE will go directly to four food pantries in Massachusetts:

In addition to the entry fee, we are asking each runner to contribute to our food drive. We will be back in touch as we get closer to race day with a list of items of need from each of our food pantry partners.
