Benefit for the Hudson Valley SPCA
On Sunday, April 28, 2013, Grab your running shoes and head out to Orange County Choppers for the 5K/10K to benefit the Hudson Valley SPCA. The race is set to start at 10:30 a.m. at OCC Headquarters located at 14 Crossroads Court, Newburgh, NY.
Runners and walkers will race 3.1 to 6.2 miles through a moderately-challenging course starting and ending on OCC grounds. Paul Teutul, Sr., founder of Orange County Choppers, will sound the gun off – rain or shine – promptly at 10:30AM signaling the start of the race.
Registration is available online at www.orangecountychoppers5k.com. Pre-registration for a single runner or walker is $20.00 until Sunday, April 7. The cost then rises to $25.00 on Monday, April 8. Those who register on or before Sunday, April 7, are guaranteed to receive an event t-shirt and gift bag. A family package is also being offered for groups of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids under 19) for $65.00 until April 7, and then $85.00 from April 8 until April 26. Please note that the family package will not be available for purchase on the day of the event.
Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 runners male/female in both the 5K and 10K plus top 3 walkers, followed by medals for the first, second, and third place male and female runners in the following brackets: 12 and under, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, and 70+.
The Hudson Valley SPCA is the only no-kill animal shelter in the Newburgh, NY area. It does not receive funds from federal, state or local municipalities. Nor is it funded by the national organization, ASPCA. Their work is solely subsidized by donations. The HVSPCA’s dedicated team of volunteers helps to shelter, protect, and defend animals, while actively seeking out loving homes that will care for these animals for the rest of their lives.
“The Hudson Valley SPCA is one of our favorite non-profit organizations and it’s literally in our backyard, said Paul Teutul, Sr. “Anyone who knows me, knows that I love animals, so please join us to help raise much-needed funds to keep the great work of the HVSPCA going.”

Net proceeds from this event will benefit the Hudson Valley SPCA. The HVSPCA is a registered 501(c)3 and all donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law.
