First half of the 7K is on quiet country roads with two gently rolling hills with the second half on the rails-to-trails Ghost Town Trail. Discounted family registration for three or more from the same household. Chip timing by Gingerbread Timing.

Random gift cards drawings will be held during the event for 2-mile participants. No road crossings in the 2 Mile Fun Run/Walk, making it an ideal family event.
