Runner, walker, or neither; College Hillian, Northsider, Cliftonite, or not – come to the Blues & Brews 5k & Festival! Participate in the 5k, or just join us for some fun after. We’ll be stationed at the future College Hill Station site (see what we did there?) at the intersection of Hamilton Avenue & North Bend Road. Parking available at 6210 Hamilton Avenue.

Make signs with us!
