Save the Track
Soldiers Memorial Field Track
During the summer of 2019 the over 90-year-old historic cinder track was in danger of being paved. A grassroots effort engaged with the City of Rochester to preserve and maintain a soft surface regulation track at Soldiers Memorial Field Park. Construction was completed June 2020.
The Save the Track design included several improvements and upgrades:
- Transitioned the material to a mixture used on the warning tracks at professional ballfields. This allows for appropriate and affordable maintenance.
- Installed a geogrid in the track to help support the weight of vehicles and trailers and prevent rutting during events like Rochesterfest.
- Improved and added drainage around the track. This will help drain the water away from the track, returning it to use much quicker and also help prevent rutting.
The Rochester Running Club is seeking sponsors for 2026
Sponsors are integral to our ability to offer high-quality and low-cost races and events to our members throughout the year. We love working with businesses across the Rochester community and are excited to continue expanding opportunities for partnership.
If an organization you're involved with might be a good fit, we'd love to hear from you — reach out and we'd be happy to discuss opportunities!
Thank you to our sponsors!
