The North Star Children's Ramble
The Endicott Estate, 656 East St, Dedham, MA | Get Directions »
FREE
The North Star Children's Ramble is a one-of-a-kind literacy-themed sporting event for kids ages 4-12. There are five age-specific races ranging from the 50-yard dash to 500-yard dash.
The event also includes a coloring contest for runners and non-runner audience participants. Like its "parent race," the James Joyce Ramble, the North Star Ramble creatively mixes sports and the arts together by tying into Dedham author Peter H. Reynolds' book, The North Star.
Sponsored by the Dedham Youth Commission as part of the 29th Annual 10K James Joyce Ramble.
The North Star Children's Ramble offers prizes, free samples, and contests, including certificates and ribbons for all who run. Sponsoring organizations include Candlewick Press, Simon & Schuster, Dedham Savings Bank, FableVision Inc, The Blue Bunny Bookstore, and Dedham Health and Athletic Complex.
Registration forms will also be available at The Blue Bunny in Dedham Square.
