Write a commentThe 11th Annual Out Run Autism 5K will take place on Saturday, March 7, 2026, bringing the community together once again for a day of awareness, celebration, and meaningful impact.
This long-standing Oswego tradition continues to grow thanks to generous community partners, including Fulton Savings Bank, who has returned as a valued event sponsor.
The annual event benefits the Oswego County Autism Task Force and supports graduating students from across Oswego County who are living with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Funds raised help provide scholarships and resources that empower local students as they transition into post-secondary education, employment, and independent living.
The day kicks off with the 5K run/walk and continues into Oswego's St. Patrick's Day Parade and festivities throughout the city making it a full day of community pride and purpose.
"We are incredibly grateful for the continued support of Fulton Savings Bank and all of our sponsors who believe in this mission," said Task Force member and Race Director, Julie Chetney. "For eleven years, this event has been about more than a race, it's about standing beside families, celebrating our students, and creating opportunities for the future."
The Out Run Autism 5K welcomes runners, walkers, families, and community members of all ages and abilities. Participants are encouraged to bundle up, gather their teams, and join in supporting a cause that directly benefits Oswego County students.
