Gallop through history!

Run, walk, or roll through Arthurdale's beautiful historic district dotted with original New Deal homesteads--and gallop past the homestead goats! Visit the historic grounds, run and play with our goats, and join us to celebrate the homestead life with the whole family. 

Pre-registration price is $25 and the deadline is May 1st. After May 1, the price to register is $30. All pre-registered participants in the 5k Run/Walk will receive a t-shirt, and age-bracket winners will receive a medal. The Kids Race is open for ages (10 and under) and is $3 to participate, all participants will receive a medal. 

Or you can participate in our virtual race! If you cannot make it out to Arthurdale in person, you can still do the 5k virtually and upload your time through Run Signup. Participants have from June 10 to July 10 to run/walk the 5k in your hometown!

All ages are welcome in the 5k Run/Walk with a registered participant; for an event t-shirt, number, and age group ranking, all must be registered.

For over thirty years Arthurdale Heritage, Inc. (AHI) has worked to preserve the history of the nation's first New Deal Homestead Community, started under the Roosevelt Administration. AHI was created by volunteers, many of whom were original homesteaders, to preserve their family and community history. AHI has since become essential to maintaining northern West Virginia's economy through tourism and promoting education about the Depression Era.
