The 50th Switchback Scamper Race/Walk has been curtailed this year due to COVID-19.

Organizers at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Jim Thorpe - a long time sponsors of the annual event - will be looking forward to the last Sunday of October 2021 to host the 50th Switchback Scamper Race/Walk.

Special plans are being planned for next season’s race to commemorate the milestone.
