AdironDuck Trail Run 5K
Starts at 10 AM This annual event is without timers or t-shirts. The magnificent Long Pond Loop is the setting for a 6K with at least 6 different trail terrains, including double wide truck trails, pavement, dirt roads, single track, and a suspension bridge. Mud puddles will be in the way, but so could ice, snow, boulders, or wildlife. Volunteers will be located at turning points and a water station will be located just before the half way point. Some years it is 70 degrees on a hot duck race Sunday and other years there is snow. Please RSVP online so we can plan accordingly for the recovery tent and volunteers on the trail. Sign Up Here!

Ecumencial Church Services with Ray Lighthall - 9:30 AM
Ray Lighthall is legendary at Oswegatchie from his years as the ag educator at Stockbridge Valley Central School. In his retirement, he has spent his time as a Methodist pastor in Madison and Bouckville, NY. Ray's perspective on life and living is very evident in his approach to ministering. If you still want to fit in a church service on Duck Race Sunday and want to leave with a big smile, this will be perfect. Ray is in Getman Lodge starting at 9:30 AM. We receive many comments each year that this is the hidden gem of the duck race experience.
