Fitchburg State University’s Director Nolan Buck and others will participate in the 5K Run to Home Base. All proceeds benefit Home Base, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the mental and physical health of veterans. The Run to Home Base, presented by RTX, offers individuals and teams a unique opportunity to participate in a 9K run or 5K run/walk while fundraising to support our mission! The race routes weave through some of Boston's most scenic neighborhoods and ends with participants crossing home plate at historic Fenway. The Run to Home Base is our most critical annual fundraiser, providing vital funds for the clinical care and support for our Veterans and Families who are impacted by the invisible wounds of service.

Come join the Admission Team for college readiness workshops, campus tours, some fun in the sun, and a BBQ lunch on Friday August 1 from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. This event is designed to not only allow students to learn more about Fitchburg State, but prepare you for your college search process.
