The Road Race will be held on Sunday, August 15, 2010.  If you are interested in participating, download the registration form below, print it, compete it and mail it to us. If you have questions, please contact Lucy Helfrich at T3C by phone: (508) 540-0876 or email: lhelfrich@300committee.org. The pledge form is available, too, for you to keep track of those who will be sponsoring you in the race. As soon as we receive your registration form and $100 deposit, we will send you an official Falmouth Road Race entry form, which you will complete and send back to us. The deadline for this official Road Race form is July 1, 2010, to allow time for the Race Committee to process and guarantee your entry.

News

New Parking Area at Central Ave. Conservation Land!
Public access is now improved at the 7-acre Hanson-Powell parcel on Central Avenue thanks to Rapoza Landscaping and Clover Paving Co. These local companies donated their services to clear a small parking area and pave the new curb cut. The loop trail begins near the road and heads west through the pine and oak woods to a grassy knoll with scenic views of Bournes Pond. We hope you will visit this lovely conservation area soon!

 

Accessible Trail at Bartolomei Underway

The new handicapped-accessible trail at the Bartolomei Conservation Area on Sandwich Road is nearing completion!
