Patriots & Paws 5K
Patriots & Paws is a community 5K run and walk scheduled for September 12, 2026 at the Cross Country Course in Van Cortlandt Park, Bronx, NY. The event is presented by the Colonel Benjamin Tallmadge Chapter, NSDAR, and marks a community celebration that connects local Revolutionary War history with the nation’s 250th anniversary.
All proceeds benefit America’s VetDogs, a nonprofit based in Smithtown, NY that provides service and guide dogs to veterans, active duty service members, and first responders with disabilities. The organization supports people living with physical injuries, mobility challenges, PTSD, seizures, and hearing or vision loss.
Event services noted by the organizer include personalized race bibs for participants who register three weeks in advance, event T-shirts, free finish line photos, and live results delivered by online, text, or email. Awards are listed for the top overall male and female finishers. Registration materials state that fees are non-refundable and that participants must accept event terms and agreements as part of registration.
