The John Andrews Memorial 5K on May 31, 2025 in Saco (ME) is more than just a race—it’s a chance to celebrate the legacy of John Andrews and the beauty of the Eastern Trail. This year, we’re inviting you to take your support one step further by becoming a fundraiser! By turning your run (or walk!) into a fundraising effort, you’ll help us maintain, expand, and protect this beloved community resource—and inspire others to do the same.
Getting started is easy:
Register for the JA5K – Click here to sign up.
On the fourth page of the registration, click “Become a Fundraiser.” Set your goal, personalize your fundraising page, and start sharing!
To help you hit the ground running, we’ve created a JA5K 2025 Fundraising Toolkit with sample posts, email templates, and fundraising tips to guide you every step of the way.
Your voice—and your 5K—can help raise awareness and vital funds for the future of the Eastern Trail. Whether your goal is $50 or $500, every dollar makes a difference.
Let’s run (and fundraise) together for the trail we love.
With gratitude, The ETA Team
