For over 30 years the Falmouth Walk has supported local Falmouth charities. Started by friends Eddie Doyle and Tommy Leonard the annual event has brought thousands of people together for a day of exercise, camaraderie and giving to those in need.

COVID-19 impacted us in ways we could never have imagined. People continue to suffer, physically, emotionally, and financially—the Falmouth Walk will be there this year to help. Times remain a bit uncertain, but we are embracing the transition to live events, and so, we are moving forward with an in-person 30th Annual Falmouth Walk while still providing a virtual option for our community not ready or able to join us in Falmouth.

The 30th Annual Falmouth Walk is on the calendar for Saturday August 14th starting at 10am from Falmouth’s Town Hall Square. The picturesque 5K (about 3.2 miles) course will once again flow through the charming streets of Falmouth along the bustling Falmouth Harbor and past the storefronts of Main Street to the finish at St. Barnabas Church by the Town Green.

Our virtual walkers across the country will join friends and family for a 5k walk in their hometown neighborhood on or around Saturday August 14, 2021

Thank you to the walkers who registered early. Congratulations on being the first—we added you to our in-person walk if you selected that option on the old registration form. You do not need to do anything further.

Registration is now open. During the registration process, there will be an option to select either the 30th Annual Falmouth Walk or Virtual 30th Annual Falmouth Walk.

All registrations close on Thursday August 12, 2021 at 3pm. The entry fee of $30 includes a 30th Annual Falmouth Walk t-shirt and an official walk bib number. T-shirt pick up for online registrants and in-person registration available Friday August 13th 4pm-7pm at Falmouth Town Hall Square & again on Saturday at 8:30am prior to the start of the Walk. Virtual walkers will receive their t-shirts by August 14, 2021 if registration is completed by July 10, 2021. Virtual walkers registering between July 11, 2021 and August 12, 2021 will receive a t-shirt and bib, but it will likely arrive after August 14th.

Walkers may opt out of receiving the t-shirt to increase funds distributed to the charities. Additional donations can also be made during the registration process. The needs of the 13 charities supported by the Walk remain great after this challenging year. Visit our website at www.falmouthwalk.org for more information about this year’s charities.

Returning this year just for our virtual walkers is “The Most Original Walk Photo Contest”. Simply submit a photo of you on your Virtual 30th Annual Falmouth Walk to falmouthwalk@falmouthwalk.org or post it to Facebook and tag “The Falmouth Walk” by 9/15/21. Our founder, Eddie Doyle, will select the most creative. The winner will be notified after 9/15/21 and receive a free entry for the 2022 Falmouth Walk.

The Committee is excited to host the 30th Annual Falmouth Walk both in-person and virtual. We are honored to continue the tradition of giving. Additional activities are under development, such as, an online auction for some of those wonderful items historically donated to the annual Falmouth Walk.
