Depot Days Rail Run 5K (Newbern, TN)

The Depot Days Rail Run 5K is a community running event held in downtown Newbern on West Main Street. The day includes multiple race and walk options and awards for youth races.

The event is presented in remembrance of long-time local organizers who maintained the tradition for more than three decades. All proceeds will benefit a memorial food pantry and the Loads of Love Laundry ministry at Newbern Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Those services are operated by community volunteers. Participants are asked to bring canned goods and laundry pods to support the pantry and laundry ministry on the day of the event.

Registration fees are published for the primary activities: the 5K run, youth mile races, junior runs, and a health walk. An event T-shirt is available for purchase. Organizers are also seeking sponsors; a sponsorship level of $100 is described with recognition on event materials including banners, flyers, and the event website.

Race location: Downtown Newbern, West Main St., Newbern, TN 38024.
