About the Downingtown Good Neighbor Day - Firetrucks and Fireworks
The race is part of Downingtown's Good Neighbor Day, a full-day community event centered on supporting local fire and rescue squads. Several distance options go out from Kerr Park, where the gazebo serves as the hub for packet pickup. The surroundings are park-style, and the morning fills early as walkers and runners share the start area before the rest of the day's activities open up.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the Kerr Park gazebo, with race-morning pickup available before the start. The broader event stretches through the day, with food, craft vendors, and activities on the grounds, and the whole thing closes after dark with a fireworks display.
