Registration for the George Dole Bath Rotary 4-Way 5K is open.

May 27th will mark the 9th annual 4-Way 5K race hosted my the Rotary Club of Bath. Last year the name of the race was changed to honor Rev. George Dole, a long time Bath Rotarian who in 1954, while studying at Oxford University in England, ran in the race in which Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute mile. A lifelong runner, George won his age category in several of our races. George passed away just shy of his 90th birthday on June 29th, 2021.
