Boooo-mfield 5K – Where Block Party Meets Halloween

The Boooo-mfield 5K is more than just a run — it’s a Halloween-flavored block party right in the heart of the Watsessing community, starting and finishing outside Skiddoo and Narda’s Café. Whether you're racing in costume, walking with friends, or pushing a stroller to the finish, this is a fall morning you won’t want to miss.

Community Support

All proceeds from the event support local community efforts — including the incredible work of the Friends of Watsessing Park Conservancy, a volunteer-driven group dedicated to preserving and enhancing one of Bloomfield’s most beloved parks, and the Bloomfield High School Cross Country and Track & Field teams, helping fund gear, travel, and meet expenses for student-athletes.

Event Highlights

• Costumed cheer squads: Friendly faces all along the course.
• Kids Dash: A festive race for kids, plus face painting, snacks, and giveaways.
• Local vendors: Enjoy food trucks, Narda's punches, and fresh coffee from Skiddoo.
• Music and fun: Great tunes, fun photo ops, and a big dose of Halloween spirit wrapped in a warm, welcoming community vibe.
