Howl-O-Ween Hustle
About this race
Join us for the Howl-O-Ween Hustle at The Corn Crib! This event features a 5K run/walk and a 1-mile walk option, with the course taking participants around the Corn Crib grounds and onto Heartland Community College’s campus.
The Howl-O-Ween Hustle is a fundraiser benefiting Wish Bone Canine Rescue, with special participation from other rescues in our area. Together, we’re working to give more pets the safe, happy homes they deserve.
Bring the whole family—two-legged and four! Dogs are welcome to join the fun (must be friendly, on a leash, and comfortable around other people and pets). Kids are encouraged too—this is a truly family-friendly event! Free registration for kids 12 years and younger!
Stick around after the race for our adoption event and Fall festivities! We will also have a Halloween Pet Costume Contest, where you and your pup can strut their spooky (or silly) style. There will be prizes for Best Overall, Best Group, Best Dog, and Best Dog/Owner Combo!
Get ready to run, walk, and wag your way through a course full of fitness, fun, and fundraising for a great cause!
