Morning Star's Run for Shelter 5K
Morning Star Christian Fellowship is sponsoring the sixth annual 5K run and walk on Saturday, October 24, 2026, in Kingston, NY. Proceeds support local area homeless shelters and the Transformation Life Center.
The course starts and finishes at the Morning Star building (formerly Good Shepherd School) at the corner of East Chester and Highland, 79-83 East Chester Street. The route winds through the neighborhood between East Chester and Foxhall Streets, uses hills on both sides of Clifton Avenue, and passes twice through Hutton Park. A scenic view of the Catskills is included.
The event offers special awards and prizes. T-shirts are provided to the first 100 registrants. Entry fees are $25 for adults (19 and older) and $15 for youth (18 and under); there is an option to add donations. The discounted youth rate is applied automatically at checkout. Day of registration is offered in person.
A virtual participation option is available for those who cannot attend in person; the virtual 5K may be run on the Run for Shelter course or any 5K distance within the designated virtual window. Onteora Runners Club Grand Prix participants must compete in the in person race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
