The Town as you may have seen has declared a state of emergency. We have been directed to cancel all of our Recreation programs. This is effective until at least the end of the month. March participants will be registered for April without charge when the emergency is lifted. Please continue your exercise on your own. Avoid crowds, be safe and stay well.
Riverhead Registration will open for April programs once we get the "all clear".
Peconic Pathfinders will provide virtual workouts and events. RRAC members can join the club for only $10.
Or Participate in our Virtual Race:
Stay Strong! Join us anywhere in USA! Register today. Participate any time between now and April 15. Record your participation manually. 100% of registration goes the non profit listed. Swag can be purchased separately! If you are a non profit or are part of one, we can help you raise funds during this difficult time.
