BAY STATE GAMES PROGRAMS
FALMOUTH ROAD RACE CHARITY TEAM
The Bay State Games Charity Running Team gives runners the opportunity to compete in one of America's most iconic races, which will take place on Sunday, August 16, 2020. Our goal is to raise funds while providing runners with an opportunity to achieve their athletic goals. Each team member will be responsible for raising a minimum of $825, which includes the race registration fee. These funds are essential to allow the Bay State Games to continue its mission of producing quality recreational, health, and educational programming for Massachusetts citizens of all ages and abilities.  

Applications are now being accepted. We will review applications and select team members on a rolling basis until the team is filled.
