Join us on August 10th for one race, two parks!
The Campobello Coastal Challenge offers participants the opportunity to experience the rugged beauty and scenic coastal trails of Campobello Island.

As runners make their way through some of the very same trails that President Franklin Roosevelt established during his summers on the island, they are sure to gain his same sense of appreciation for the breathtaking natural landscape that Campobello Island has to offer.

How you'll be making an impact
The open green space of this urban park is well used by the community for playing field sports, lounging, enjoying the ocean view, and walking dogs. In addition to being a valuable green space this park also serves as a community gathering point, with multiple community events happening throughout the year. To support the ongoing use of this park, additional trees and shrubs will be planted to replace fallen trees and increase the amount of shade and native biodiversity in the park.
