Light Up Lovettsville (December)
Light Up Lovettsville is an opportunity to enjoy holiday decorations throughout the Town, with prizes offered for the Best Theme, Most Outrageous, Most Traditional, Best NEW Winner, Best Street, Best in Show, and Business with the Most Holiday Spirit.
Berserkle on the Squirkle (January 1st)
Lovettsville, the Town that put U in Quirky, brings you another of its fun and unique events, Berserkle On The Squirkle! This is a 5K Family Fun Run that is done completely in the Town Square (1 West Broad Way) on New Year’s Day. Join us for 27 laps of pain (or rather fun and silliness) where you can ring in the New Year with other Lovettsvillians! We’re not keeping time…no prize for the fastest runner. This will be a chance to celebrate the ringing in of the New Year with your friends and family. Prizes are all… re-gifts from the holidays so you can go home with something someone else doesn’t want to keep! The race champion is selected at random, so everyone has the opportunity to be a winner even if you haven’t run since being chased by that big dog down the street.
Volunteer!
Want to be part of the fun behind the scenes!? Give us a call at 540-822-5788 or email [email protected] to volunteer for a few hours before, during, or after an event (we ALWAYS need help with clean up).
