We are excited to announce that the local charity partner for this event is the Fauquier FIsh!

Fauquier FISH has been operating in Fauquier County since 1983, becoming a 501(c)(3)nonprofit tax exempt charity in 2000. The organization is led by a single paid staff member, our Executive Director Charity Furness, an exceptionally dedicated Board of Directors, and over 50 volunteers who embody FISH’s mission of ‘Neighbors helping neighbors with kindness and respect just as we would want to be treated in a time of need.’

To facilitate this mission, FISH provides a range of services to county residents. Programs include food pantry distribution, Book Bag School Supply drive, Weekend Power Pack meals for Fauquier County school children, Senior Meals, a Farmers Market Program, and holiday food baskets. Across all of these programs, FISH serves over 5,000 individuals annually. Our nutrition focused food pantry committee has transformed the food bank and eliminate many of the highly processed, low nutrient foods typically distributed by food banks. Our volunteers package DASH (Delicious, Affordable, Simple and Healthy) meals that come with all the ingredients, meat, vegetables, and seasoning to make a satisfying meal for the family. Alternate menus help clients with certain medical conditions to focus on how healthy eating can have a positive effect and improve overall wellness. Every dollar that is donated to Fauquier FISH is stretched as far as it will go providing families with a week’s worth of food each time they visit the food pantry. 

We provide educational information to our clients as well and sit with them to answer any questions they have while their grocery orders are being filled.

We provide volunteer opportunities for other community organizations such as school interact clubs, the Boy and Girl Scouts, and local companies. Our volunteers also regularly bring their children to help out at the Food Pantry and Weekend Power Pack, ensuring the practice of community giving is continued.

Absolutely!  We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.

Please feel free to register through the regular registration link above and you can either: 

1) Pick up packet during packet pickup or on the morning of the race, but run on your own (hint:  wine ticket is still good if you use this strategy)

2) Contact us at any time to switch to the Virtual Wine Run 5k and we'll ship your packet (There will be a shipping and handling charge for this option)

Also, if you intend on running, but later change your mind and would like to do either of these options, that's ok too!  If you are definitely going to have us ship your packet and run virtually though, we do recommend you follow the instructions below:

1). Go to runsignup.com/profile and log into your account.

2). Click on "Manage Registration" next to this race.

3). On the next page click on transfer to another race and choose the virtual wine run race.
