NEW in 2026 is our $10 stroller flat fee. This will replace the cost of a standard $15 youth registration, so our littlest racers can cruise through the course in a stroller instead!

All proceeds benefit the Greater Keene Rotaract Club 501(c)3.

The Greater Keene Rotaract Club is a local social-service organization who aims to build life-long relationships with our communities, both local to the Monadnock region and international. Our club primarily participates in service projects that benefit children and families in need. In the last year, the GKRC has partnered with the Keene Community Kitchen, local Rotary Clubs, the Serenity Center,  Hundred Nights Shelter, Cedarcrest Inc. for Children with Disabilities, Keene High School and more to help those in need. In 2025, we were able to provide holiday gifts and magic for 68 children through our primary service project, Operation Elves, and we hope to exceed that number in 2026.
