IMPORTANT UPDATE!

Hi Everyone,

We hope you all have been doing well these past few years.
Please note that this page will be merged with the Firecracker4 starting June 1st. If you follow this page and not the Firecracker4, you will automatically be redirected.

The merging of this page does NOT mean this race is over though!
The pandemic, combined with the change in directors, has put this on a brief pause. Please know that we are working to bring all of our events back to pre-pandemic status.

FC4, Inc. is the parent company of both the Firecracker4 and Silks & Satins races. Any updates and promos will be made on that page.

We hope to see you on the start line on July 4th!

Sadly, due to several factors brought about with the Covid19 pandemic and related realities we will be canceling the 2020 edition of the Jeff Clark Memorial Silks and Satins 5k. There will be no virtual option. We plan to focus our efforts on bringing you the best opening weekend live footrace experience in July of 2021. If you would still like to donate to the Special Olympics you can do so on the registration page. We will leave the donation button active and 100% of donations will be given directly to Special Olympics NENY.
All currently registered runners will receive a full refund.

For the full statement see our home page.
We wish everyone happy running and a safe and healthy summer.
