The annual Daniel Feather Memorial 5K race & walk will be held Saturday, Sept. 6 in Jamestown.

The event, hosted by the Chautauqua Striders, raises money to support youth programming and a scholarship named after the organization’s co-founder and is part of the 2025 Runner-of-the-Year series, sponsored by KeyBank and UPMC Chautauqua.

Feather and Ron Graham co-founded the Striders in 1979, and the former served as a volunteer coach for several years. Proceeds from the 5K help keep Striders’ athletic programs accessible and affordable for all youth. Since 1979, Striders has been committed to helping young people reach their fullest potential on the track, in the classroom and in life.

Check-in will start at 9 a.m. on Sept. 6. The race, which includes a 5K run division, a 5K walk division and a separate division for Jamestown Police Department officers, will begin at 10 a.m.

Graduating high school seniors (Class of 2026) are eligible for the Daniel Feather Memorial Scholarship. To be considered, one must participate in the Dan Feather Memorial 5K (walk, run or volunteer). Contact Lexi@chqstriders.org with any questions.
