WHAT IS
HOPS FOR HOPE

Hops for Hope is a BEER 5K and St. Charles' BREWFEST

 

The 5K portion is a twist on the traditional 5K! Awarded Top 100 Races in America by BibRave, our 5K is timed and the course is certified. Whether you are a serious runner or walker who loves beer, this event is for you. 

​

The 5K will start at the beautiful Mount Saint Mary Park in St. Charles and head towards Geneva on the scenic path through Wheeler Park and ends back at Mount Saint Mary Park for the BrewFest!

 

Proceeds benefit Project Mobility's mission to bring adaptive cycling opportunities to the lives of children, adults, and wounded service members with disabilities.

​

THAT'S A WEIRD TWIST?! We think you mean delicious and fun! Throughout the 5K there will be 6 Beer Stops featuring local craft breweries handing out 3-ounce beer samples to runners. 

 

Post 5K will be the BrewFest! You will get 18 samples of beer while listening to InFunktious and Bronson Rock while enjoying a variety of food thanks to our Exclusive Food Sponsor, Craft Urban. Purchase some raffle tickets for our "Mountain of Beer" and view our Adaptive Bike Giveaway Presentation (the reason we are all at the event!)

 

Last year we donated nearly $20,000 in adaptive bicycles!
