Duryea at Dusk 5k Run and Festival event will be June 3

DURYEA — The first Duryea at Dusk 5K and Festival will be held at 5 p.m. Saturday, June 3 at the Duryea Community Park.

The event will feature a 5K run, a one-mile fun walk and a festival, including food, games, basket raffles, local business vendors and a disc jockey.

Through personal experience with a family member battling cancer, Duryea native sisters, Katie Brudzinski and Allison Brudzinski, wanted to be part of something bigger that would involve their entire community. Duryea at Dusk was created from that idea.

This event will support the Northeast Regional Cancer Institute, whose mission is to ease the burden of anyone in northeastern Pennsylvania suffering from cancer.

Individuals or businesses looking for sponsorship or event information may reach out to the Duryea at Dusk committee by email at duryeaatdusk@gmail.com. Sponsorship opportunities are still available.
