After Party

Can't make it to the 5K walk/run around UD's campus? We'll miss you- but it's no problem! Join us for the after party at Eudora Brewing Co. We'll head there following the race and awards ceremony, so we'll most likely arrive around 11:30a-noon. Food and drinks will be available for purchase at the brewery.

 

Please Note: The only official parking for Eudora Brewing Company is within their lot, in designated parking areas. Please do not park elsewhere in their lot, such as next to the patio or in the traffic path.  

Please do NOT park at CVS, block the back loading area or park in front of a dumpster- you will be towed. After party guests are welcome to use the parking lots at 1404 Beaverton Dr. and Five Rivers Church (1450 E Dorothy Ln), thanks to the generosity of Eudora's neighbors. Please respect these lots and exercise caution while walking. We also encourage carpooling, ride sharing, and use of Eudora's bike rack!
