HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Here are the 5K Halloween Hustle results! Thank you to everyone who came out for the race. And, congrats to the winners! 👻

Trick or Treat! 🧛 Check out our Trick-the-Town business map! Trick-the-Town will be from 5:30-7:30pm at these participating businesses on Saturday.

🏃 Attention Halloween Hustle 5K runners and walkers! We have a new course this year due to a funeral service in the cemetery tomorrow (10/28).

You will start at the back of Youngs Creek Park, cross the bridge into Greenlawn Cemetery and take an immediate right (west) traveling under US 31 and into Blue Heron Park. Once you finish the big loop at the back of Blue Heron Park, head back toward the cemetery and eventually do a sharp right turn onto the trail that goes across Main Street (after you have gone underneath the bridge). Then, finish strong back at Youngs Creek Park.

Parks staff will be at all major intersections to help you along your way. See you tomorrow!
