The Roundtown Classic is an annual fundraising event for the Circleville High School Alumni Association. Established in 2005, this organization promotes activities of the Circleville City Schools including scholarships. CHS Alumni is a not-for-profit 501 C3 organization.
Each year, on the 3rd Saturday in July, your Circleville High School Alumni Association sponsors The Roundtown Classic - a 5 mile and 5K run/walk which takes place on the Circleville City School Campus. This is our largest fundraiser of the year. It provides the funds to award $1000 scholarships to selected graduating family members of Circleville High School Alumni. The alumni association also funds other school related projects, activities, and needs.
The 2024 race will be Saturday, July 20th, 2024 at 8am. The start and finish will be in front of Circleville High School and the course will be around the campus and on the neighboring Roundtown Trail. We are still offering a Virtual option in the 5K and 5 Mile that can be completed 7/20/24 - 7/27/24.

Race, Focus, & Finish
“Focus & Finish” was CHS alum Ralph Starkey’s motto when speaking to youth and civic groups throughout his career. And that was his passion in his pursuit to make the Mary Virginia Crites Hannan Park the very best it could be for the citizens of Circleville and Pickaway County. If you have not visited the park you surely should make that a must stop. You will be impressed by all the facilities that provide accessibility to all youth and adults, physically challenged or not. The playground, the splash pad, the shelter houses, the Starkey Pavilion, the 1.1 mile paved track, the ½ mile gravel trail through the woods, the butterfly garden, the wetlands observation deck, a water fountain that includes a pet fountain,and, most recently the dog park where dogs of all sizes can play were all placed in the park with the requirement that they be accessible to all.

The Information Station was completed and dedicated in the Spring of 2014. There was no central place within the park where folks could go to see what events will be taking place there, or to see the results of events such as The Roundtown Classic or other races. The Information Station, located near the butterfly garden, was financed by several groups, organizations, and individuals.
