West Philly Runners: WPR weekly deets: August 16

Some Words from the Management

Another week, another chance for a beautiful summer night run with friends. And a chance to make more friends at the second and final Runner Happy Hour at the Woodlands!

If you're a member of the Woodlands, you can drink for free but non-members pay $10. Consider becoming a member to help support this neighborhood gem!

Parks on Tap is also happening in Clark Park so that could be a good after-party destination. Bring your ID to make sure you can get in.

Run starts at Clark Park (44th and Baltimore) and ends at The Woodlands (40th and Woodland).
