Beat Beethoven!

Beat Beethoven! –  generously sponsored by classical music powerhouse WMHT-FM, regional players Stewart’s Shops, Berkshire Bank and Price Chopper, and supported through challenges from area musicians, student groups and everyday runners and walkers  – raises funds to support the Schenectady Symphony Orchestra in our 82nd year of operation.

With a new course this year, and a Kids Fun Run after the 5K finishes, the event should be another fund way to get fit and support live classical music by your friends and neighbors. BEAT BEETHOVEN 2015 ROUTE
