Participants receive a commemorative T-shirt for the first 400 registrants and refreshments are available at the finish area. The event takes place alongside other town activities including a 4th of July Craft Fair at Chester Park and a 4th of July Parade on Main Street; the Craft Fair is sponsored by the Chester Elks and the Parade is sponsored by the Lake Almanor Area Chamber of Commerce.
The Fun Run is open to participants of all ages and abilities.
