Please be advised, Thanksgiving morning between 8:00 AM and approximately 12:00PM, the annual Ashenfelter 8K Classic and Tom Fleming 2K will be run through the streets of Glen Ridge. To ensure the safety of the runners, there will be road closures on Ridgewood Avenue, between Sunset Avenue and Carteret Street, as well as the entire length of Forest Avenue, south of Sunset Avenue, and Hawthorne Avenue between Washington Street and Carteret Street.
Please plan ahead to accommodate the road closures as roads will be CLOSED to all traffic and there will be strict, zero tolerance, enforcement to ensure the safety of the runners and personnel. Residents are reminded to not move these barricades nor drive on the closed roadways, or a summons will be issued.
