Asbury, NJ  Join the Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA) for our 19th Annual Run for the River.  Run or walk a scenic 4-mile loop in Asbury (Warren County), NJ.  Participants will pass streams, pastures, historic buildings and the beautiful Musconetcong River on this mostly flat, family-friendly course.  Afterward, there are awards presented to the top runners in 12 age categories as well as best overall.  There is also a free raffle open to all of those who participate and free tethered balloon rides (courtesy of Unity Bank).  Registration is only $30 and includes a commemorative t-shirt, while supplies last.

“This really is a great community event,” said Alan Hunt, MWA Executive Director. “Local businesses donate to the free raffle as well as provide participants with bagels, oranges and water to keep everyone satisfied and hydrated, and a local DJ keeps the event lively.”

The Run for the River is the largest annual fundraiser for MWA to-date, and funds generated from this event will be used to support our education program, water quality monitoring program, hiking and paddling trips, ‘River Talks’, and more.

The Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA) is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and improving the quality of the Musconetcong River and its Watershed, including its natural and cultural resources.  To learn more about the MWA, this event, or our other programs, please visit www.musconetcong.org.
