11th Annual Rest in Peace 5k Run

Organized by the Friends of Laurel Hill & West Laurel Hill Cemeteries and brought to life by presenting sponsor Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. the Rest in Peace 5k run is unique and challenging. The run winds through the headstones in Laurel Hill Cemetery. Participants and spectators alike are encouraged to attend in Halloween attire. Directly following the run, prizes are awarded for the best costume as well as to the winners of the run at an after-party. Featuring free beer from Magic Hat and a chance to win top-notch prizes, the after-party promises to be a drop-dead good time!

Proceeds benefit the Friends of Laurel Hill & West Laurel Hill Cemeteries, a nonprofit dedicated to the preservation of Laurel Hill Cemetery, a National Historic Landmark and its sister cemetery, West Laurel Hill Cemetery, a level II arboretum. In addition to being a good time, the run is also a very community minded event, connecting runners, local businesses and organizations together through fellowship, fitness and fun! For those looking for a charity fitness event that is cool albeit creepy, the RIP 5K is the perfect choice!
