Beacon of Hope 5K Run/Walk
The Beacon of Hope 5K is scheduled for June 20, 2026 at Montauk Lighthouse in Montauk, New York. The event is a 5K (3.1 mile) run/walk that follows a course through Camp Hero and finishes at the historic Montauk Lighthouse.
Proceeds support two local Long Island organizations focused on women’s cancers: Lucia’s Angels and the Coalition for Women’s Cancers. Participants may register individually or as part of a team and can create fundraising pages.
Registration fees are tiered by date: $30 from December 1, 2025 to April 14, 2026; $35 from April 15, 2026 to June 19, 2026; and $40 on race day. Packet pick-up takes place the day before the race at the race site.
Awards are given to the top three overall male and female finishers, a first place breast/gynaecological cancer survivor award, and top three in multiple age group categories. An awards ceremony and a raffle occur after the final finisher; raffle winners must be present to claim prizes. Awards may be shipped after the event if a prepaid postage envelope is provided.
The event has a no refund policy. Entries may be transferred for a $20 fee if transferred at least 30 days before the race; volunteering can also be used to defer entry. The event producer may delay, modify, or cancel the event if conditions are unsafe, with no refund in such cases.
Race photos are available free to participants via the event photo host, searchable by name or bib number. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
