Looking for some far-out fun this fall? The beds are coming BACK to Blairstown on Saturday October 19th!

The Blairstown Bed Races were a community favorite back in the '90's that long-time residents fondly remember. Bed races originated in Knaresborough, UK in 1966, and have since popped up all around the world.

This year the Blairstown Enhancement Committee (BEC) will host this cherished event to raise funds for meaningful community projects, such as our Small Business program, North Warren High School scholarships, town cleanups and Jingle on Main. The event will be held rain or shine on Saturday, October 19th from 11AM to 4PM at Footbridge Park in Blairstown.

Bed Racer Teams will be comprised of five members -- one person in the bed and four providing the horsepower. Participants must be at least 18 years of age (or have guardian’s consent) and need only bring your speed and your spirit! Beds are provided by the BEC and can be decorated on the spot. We will even have spare costumes!

The Blairstown Fall Festival event is free community event. In addition to the beloved bed races, the event will also feature local crafters/vendors, food trucks, live music, a pumpkin pavilion (paint a pumpkin provided by Race Farms).

The Blairstown Enhancement Committee is a non-profit organization 501c3, so all entry fees, sponsorships and donations are tax deductible. Proceeds from the event directly benefit the community!
