Event Description
10K & 5K:
This is the Most Eggcellent of excellent races - an 80s themed 10K & 5k! Bring out your pastel, your shoulder pads, your blue eyeshadow, and that big hair! We cannot wait to see your spirit! We will start at McPhelemy Park, and then runners will travel west on Crossman Avenue (CR 350).
5K runners will take a right and journey through The Meadows Farm, taking in the sweet sounds of the babbling creek (as long as it's not frozen over)!
10K runners will continue west on Crossman Avenue (CR 350) and will then take a left onto CR 361.
All runners will come out on West Main Street and head east back towards the finish line at McPhelemy Park.
This run is stroller friendly! There may be a few bumpy sections on trail, but overall it's very smooth.
Littles who ride along in strollers need not register.
We welcome all runners, walkers, joggers, and everything in between!
Easter Egg Hunt:
Our kids are going to have a stellar time at our Easter Egg Hunt! This event will be held on the lawn at McPhelemy Park. We will have different areas for different age groups so that everyone, from our little tykes to our big kids, will be able to find those eggs and have the Most Eggcellent fun! Bring your own bag, basket, or tote to collect the goods.
