In case you haven't yet heard, the State of Oregon issued a statewide mask requirement for outdoor settings - including large outdoor events - where attendees come in close proximity to other participants and cannot distance themselves.

Although the Hop Fest 1/2 & 5k is not considered large, we will be asking participants to wear masks when they are not running in the race, i.e., at the start line and finish area, and also at packet pickup.

Of course, we will make more adjustments and decisions over the next month, as necessary. Thank you for your support and understanding.

Today is the last day for early registration for this year's event. At only $49 for the 1/2 marathon, it's easily one of the best deals around for the distance, and the 5k is $30.

After today, it only goes up by $5, but hey, that's a beer from Three Creeks, so register today and use that extra $5 for a tasty brew.

Registration is open for this year's Sisters Hop Fest 1/2 and 5k! Assuming the Fresh Hop Fest is a go this year: 1/2 marathon or 5k in the morning, finish at a brewery and have a beer, go back to your lodging for a nap and shower, then back to the brewery for the Fresh Hop Festival. That's pretty much the perfect Sisters day.

And registration is less than 50 bucks!
