The Trot ‘N Brew is a 1.5-mile novelty race through the streets of Conyngham, PA.

All competitors must be 21 or over, must wear shirts, carry five quarters for purchase of the refreshments, and PROVIDE A GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID THE DAY OF THE RACE!

C.H.H.I.P.S., Committee to Help Handicapped Infants and Parents Succeed, will be partnering with the Helping Hands Society to bring back the Trot ‘N Brew. The Helping Hands Society is a non-profit organization for special needs and typical children. Teachers and therapists work with children that have developmental delays and learning disabilities. The Helping Hands Society welcomes all children and never turns their back on those families that cannot afford the developmental therapies they need. Instead, the organization relies on the generosity of the public to assist in helping our community's children succeed in life, in and out of the classroom.

The 2023 Trot ‘N Brew race will be partnered with five businesses. The participating businesses include –Brass Buckle, Valley Vets, Cuz-N-Joe’s, Conyngham Brewing Company, and Full Klips Barber Shop. Each competitor must bring five quarters to purchase a beverage at the participating locations. All race competitors MUST PROVIDE A GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID THE DAY OF THE RACE!
