Dovetail Beer Run, June 4
Will run for beer! Dovetail is partnering with the Illinois Brewery Running Series 5k-ish course that starts and ends at Dovetail.

Tickets for the run are $30.

The fun-run starts at 11 am. Plan to arrive about 30 minutes prior to check-in and check out our partners, sponsors and pre-race activities. In addition to beer and swag (goodies from the Brewery Running Series, giveaways from partners and sponsors plus a chance to win sweet door prizes), there will be cool merchandise for sale, live music, food trucks and plenty more beer to keep the party going after the finish line.

Look for our informational email as we get closer to the event. We will remind you of these details and share anything else you might need to know.

The Brewery Running Series is all about being active, having fun and giving back to the local community. Since their inaugural event in 2012, they have been able to donate over $40,000 back to local non-profit organizations. This event will add to that tally! 10% of all proceeds go directly to the Chicago Parks Foundation, a local organization that helps fund and execute projects for the Chicago parks system.
