Preview: Babylon Rotary Club's Dirty Sock Run

The 7th annual Babylon Village Classic will take place this Sunday morning.

The Babylon Rotary Club will be hosting its 7th Annual 10k Dirty Sock Run this Sunday, August 19th starting at 8:00 a.m.

The annual "Babylon Village Classic" takes runners through a U.S. Track and Field Certified and Sanctioned, picturesque, wooded trail and only 2/10 mile paved – rain or shine.

The Dirty Sock Run is held annually to help bring in donations of food and funds for many of our local food shelters for our area's most needy. Throughout the past six races, the Babylon Rotary Club has been able to raise over $100,000 for Babylon Clergy Cluster Food Pantries.

If you would like to take part in the race, late registration will still be taking place the day of the race. For more information, check out the Dirty Sock Run website.
