From the Organizer

The Dandelion Trail Run is a friendly entry-level race offering both 5K and 10K options, held to benefit Camp Mount Luther. Participants can decide on race day whether to complete a single 5K loop or tackle the 10K by running a double loop of the 5K course. There is a water stop at the 5k mark for 10k runners. Named in memory of Rev. Glenn Heasley, who had a fondness for dandelions, this run celebrates his spirit in a beautiful, natural setting. 

Join us for a meaningful race and support a great cause!

Kids Fun Run! The age groups are 6 and under and 7 – 10. Special awards will be presented to every participant in the fun run.

Awards for top two male and female finisher for each distance immediately following the race. Finisher awards for all finishers.
