Join us for the 26th Annual Ghostly Gallop in support of the library! The certified 5K course takes runners and walkers of all ages through Hudson, past the library, and to the Jr./Sr. High School. The Kids Fun Run is free for runners age 12 and under, and every participant will receive a finishing medal and a free book thanks to the Hudson Children’s Book Festival. This year’s Ghostly Gallop will also include a costume contest for kids, plus prizes for top finishers. For more information, visit the Ghostly Gallop web page.
