Two Knights Brewing raises $1,000 for Community Fitness with 5K race
SANGERVILLE — Two Knights Brewing is proud to announce the successful completion of its 5K fundraising race held on Saturday, May 16, raising $1,000 in support of Friends of Community Fitness in Guilford. The event drew 40 participants from across the region for a fun and active day benefiting a vital community resource.
The race featured a unique course combining both on-road and off-road terrain, offering runners a dynamic and engaging experience. Organizers shared that plans are already underway to enhance next year’s race by expanding the off-road elements and creating a more all-terrain route.
Top finishers included Kevin Daggett, who placed first overall in the male division with a time of 23 minutes, 8 seconds, and Dulcy Docken, who led the female division with a time of 28:55.
BENEFIT 5K — Runners get ready to start a 5K at Two Knights Brewing in Sangerville on May 16. The event raised $1,000 for Friends of Community Fitness in Guilford.
“We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who came out to support this event,” John Riitano of Two Knights Brewing, said. “It’s inspiring to see the community come together for such a great cause, and we’re excited to continue building on this momentum.”
Special thanks go to Kennedy Kustoms for generously providing event T-shirts, and Eli’s Market for donating fruit and water to keep participants fueled and hydrated.

Events like this truly make a difference in helping us keep our programs accessible and affordable for everyone in our community.”
Looking ahead, Two Knights Brewing will host its next fundraiser for Community Fitness on Aug. 7: the Polar Plunge & Pizza event.
