This race is organized by a local chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star, a Masonic-affiliated fraternal group that has been rooted in Newport News for decades. The Halloween-themed event pairs a 5k with a shorter dash, and the name suggests a candy-forward post-race scene. Beyond the running, the morning reflects the organizing group's focus on community service and charitable work.
