Event Information
About Shattuck Partners
Shattuck Partners, Inc. funds and provides arts, vocational, recreation and therapeutic support programs and services for patients of the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital, a public health hospital in Jamaica Plain. The hospital cares for a largely under-served population of our most vulnerable medically and mentally ill neighbors. Please join us in supporting these men and women on their journey of recovery, healing, and hope!
About the 5K Course and the Festival
The 5K course begins and ends in the "picnic table area" of Franklin Park, directly across from the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital, loops around Scarborough Pond, then around the William Devine Golf Course, and finishes back in the picnic table area. For a more detailed course map, go to https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/2192198446.

Registration is required for running or walking in the 5K. All are invited to enjoy the festival, and donations are suggested for those not participating in the 5K. Proceeds will benefit patient programs.

The festival will run until 12pm and will feature food, entertainment and kids activities, along with special remarks honoring the life of long-time Shattuck Hospital friend, employee, and patient Viola Thacker.
