The race started in the early 1980s as a grassroots local event with informal entry and prizes. It lapsed for a time and was revived in 2022 with roughly 130 participants. For 2026 the event will be organized by the local nonprofit Silverton Wild, which aims to continue the community focus of the run.
The event is presented as a free community run that accepts donations for the local preschool, Silverton Family Learning Center. All finishers receive a prize and a freshly made rhubarb bar provided by Friends of Silverton Library. The course is described as a scenic perimeter route around the town and is part of July Fourth activities in Silverton. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
