The 5k run has been replaced with a traffic friendlier 3.5 km run / walk

Both the 3.5k & 10k runners and walkers depart from the back of the Rotary Complex site through the ball diamonds at the old Fairgrounds.

The 10Km route runs through the trails of the Old Grove. This route is an interesting and challenging course with a combination of road and trails.
