We are excited to announce this year's River Race and we're looking forward to seeing all our racing friends again! Join us on Sunday, July 24th for the annual Delaware Youth Center River Race. A flat, scenic, very fast course alongside the beautiful Delaware River - Great for an accurate personal record! Register for the 5K run or walk; or for a greater challenge, try the 10K distance! T-Shirts for the first 400 participants, so register early! Can't attend this year but still want to join in the fun? Register for the Gary A. Winglovitz Virtual Run! No matter what race you choose, all proceeds benefit the Delaware Youth Center.
Here are the details:
- The 5K Run and Walk will be in person this year on the beautiful River Road in Callicoon.
- The 10K Run is back on this year!
- Walkers race steps off at 8:15. Both 5K and 10K runners start at 8:30.

The DYC wants to ensure all children have an opportunity to join in the River Run. If your child wants to participate but the cost of registration is a burden, we understand.

The Gary A. Winglovitz Virtual Race began in 2019, named for one of our own: Gary Winglovitz, a kid who grew up in Cochecton and spent his childhood at the Delaware Youth Center. Gary died in 2014 at 41, and his family and friends have come out in force ever since to run the River Race in his memory.
The Youth Center would like to thank the Stewart/Winglovitz family for their support and generosity.
