Event information

The Greater Rochester Running Club Holiday Walk/Run & Cookie Exchange takes place on December 17, 2025 in Rochester, NY (zip 14450). The listed meeting place is 111 Parce Ave, 3A-1. The event is free (price: $0). Registration is open and closes on December 17, 2025.

Format and what to bring

The event combines a social cookie exchange with an informal group walk or run. Attendees are asked to bring a dozen or more cookies or similar treats. Bakers and bringers should label items that contain less obvious allergens, such as nuts or cinnamon. The club will provide baggies so people can package selected items. There will be at least one gluten-free/vegan option. The club will also supply pretzels, popcorn, and a tray of non-sweets. Beverages are available on a pay-on-your-own basis.

The planned sequence is: bring in treats, choose between an out-and-back on the canal path or a neighborhood route for the walk/run, then return to Triphammer for the cookie exchange and snacks, and finally wrap up. Times for these activities are given as approximate in the event description. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
