The Community Foundation of Jackson Hole announced today that the 25th annual, community-wide fundraiser, Old Bill’s Fun Run, will be modified in accordance with Teton County Health Department’s recommendations for large-scale events and Town of Jackson permit requirements. Old Bill’s has become one of the largest annual events in the Town of Jackson — attracting more than 3,500 people every September.
Considering the high rate of transmission of COVID in our community and the recent increase in the COVID-19 risk level from Orange (Moderate) to Red (High), the Community Foundation is taking steps to ensure the safety and welfare of the Jackson community by calling off its Run Day festivities including the 5k and10k Run/Walk and Nonprofit Village, which were previously scheduled for September 11. Up until today, Run Day plans were being modified in compliance with the Town’s special event rules for in-person gatherings of up to 500 people, however the revised Run Day plans are no longer viable now that our community has entered the Red risk level.
“Old Bill’s Fun Run is about community and how we care for each other,” remarked Laurie Andrews, President of the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole. “We broke all fundraising records last year as we rallied around our nonprofit friends despite difficult circumstances. The spirit of Old Bill’s is powerful, and I know we can take care of each other, celebrate the 25th Anniversary, and make this year spectacular.”
