GEAR
Every Cider Chase finisher will earn a Rastal Craft Master Grand. Not only is this great for Woodchuck Hard Cider, this will be your go-to glass for every kind of liquid. Instead of a neck medal we have our custom crafted coaster line, a medal you can use.
Have a running team, coworkers or neighborhood club? Teams of 10 more automatically get upgraded swag.
CHARITY
We are proud to partner with Dragonheart Vermont as the official race charity of the 2019 Cider Chase. Dragonheart Vermont (DHVT) is a dynamic dragon boat organization located in Burlington, Vermont that embraces athletes of all ages, gender, and abilities. What began as a breast cancer survivor team now has 200 members that make up 10 different teams. DHVT teams have been named National and World champions and host the Lake Champlain Dragon Boat Festival.
Donations of $20 or more will earn you a custom Cider Chase Trucker Hat.
The first, and still the best, we are proud to partner with Woodchuck® Hard Cider to bring you the Cider Chase 5k. Woodchuck® started the American hard cider revolution.
Woodchuck® has been crafting America’s original hard cider since 1991. Back then they didn’t really care that the world was drinking beer, because they had a passion for hard cider. So that’s what they made. Sure, cider may be popular now, either way they’ve stayed true to their roots, fermenting quality innovative ciders with every batch.
The Cider House and Tap Room now welcome visitors with self-guided tours, tastings, Woodchuck® gear, and 20 ciders on tap. We think there’s nothing better than swapping stories with family and friends over a pint at the Cider House.
