Before fall racing season begins, join us for one last unforgettable summer evening at the inaugural Summer Send-Off 8K!
On Thursday, August 20 at 6:00 PM, runners and walkers of all abilities are invited to Wings Flight of Hope in Orchard Park for a fun, community-focused 8K celebrating the best part of summer: warm evenings, great friends, and unforgettable miles.
Whether you're chasing a late-summer PR, training for your next race, or simply looking for a fun night with Buffalo's running community, the Summer Send-Off is the perfect way to wrap up the season.
But the fun doesn't end at the finish line!
Stick around after the race for our Summer Send-Off Celebration featuring live music from Coming In Hot. They'll be rocking the stage with high-energy hits from the '90s and beyond, playing favorites from Weezer, Nirvana, Green Day, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, and more. Grab a bite, hang out with fellow runners, and celebrate one last summer night together.
Even better, a portion of every registration benefits Wings Flight of Hope, supporting its mission of providing free air transportation for individuals with serious medical needs and humanitarian purposes.
Registration Includes
Official Summer Send-Off race T-shirt for the first 250 participants or those registered by August 10, whichever comes first
Summer isn't over yet. Come run into the sunset, celebrate with live music, support an incredible cause, and help us kick off what we hope becomes a new Western New York tradition.
We can't wait to see you at the Summer Send-Off 8K! ☀️🏃🎸
