TimberTown TrailFest 5K

There’s no better way to soak up fall than lacing up and hitting the trail. Join us for the TimberTown TrailFest 5K, a timed out and back course starting and finishing at TimberTown and Veteran’s Park along the paved Border to Border Trail. Flat, scenic, and beginner friendly, with aid stations along the way for runners and walkers alike.

Registration is $35, spots are limited!

Ready, set, dash! Fall is the perfect time for our youngest trailblazers to hit the park. Join us for the TimberTown Kids Dash, a fun, timed 1 mile race for our youngest runners held right in TimberTown and Veteran’s Park.
