Telluride Adaptive Sports Program 5k Fundraiser Race
"Run, Walk and Roll"
Blisters & Brews is a 5k Fundraiser Race on the morning of Saturday, September 14, giving Festival attendees the opportunity to exercise before the Festival. Presented by the Telluride Blues Society, the 5k Race will raise money for the Telluride Adaptive Sports Program in remembrance of dear festival friend Felix Snow.
Through registration fees, donations and the generous support of the Telluride community, we are honored to be able to raise over $10,000 for the Telluride Adaptive Ski Program since the start of the program. We're looking forward to another amazing year of support.
