Jug & Rose

Join the fun and take part in one of Amador County’s longest-running traditions, the Jug & Rose Walk/Run, hosted by Amador High Performing Arts. The event includes a 7.7-mile course through the scenic foothills of the Mother Lode and welcomes both walkers and runners of all ages and abilities.

The Jug & Rose begins in Volcano. The non-competitive walk begins at 9:15 a.m., the open walk at 9:30 a.m., and the run starts at 10 a.m. Ribbons and shirts go to all participants. Awards will be presented to winners of the open walk, male and female run divisions, and 10-year age groups. Special awards recognize the youngest and oldest participants, best theme group, and even best and worst dressed.

Early registration is $25 and closes Friday, October 24. Race-day registration is $30. Entry forms are available by contacting Amador High Performing Arts at 330 Spanish Street, Sutter Creek, CA 95685, by email at gturner@acusd.org, or by phone at 209-257-7329.
