From the Organizer

Come join us for a beautiful sunrise run in Headland, AL! This is our 54th Harvest Festival and the 19th year of our 5k and Fun Run! This mostly flat course is easy and enjoyable for all age groups.  This year each participant and winner will receive an award inspired by our new mural, and with the funds raised from the 5K, we will be giving money to public art in the community.

5K Registrants receive a T- Shirt and a Swag Bag full of Harvest Day merchandise.

In addition to the 5K, the Street Dance will be on the Square Friday night the 9th and the other Harvest Day activities will begin on the Square at 9am.


The 5K will begin and end at Headland High School 8 Sporman St. Headland, AL 36345, with all other activities being held on the Square.
Fun Run registration is for children ages 12 and below and is $10. They will receive a swag bag but not a T-Shirt.


5K pre-registration will be $25 through Friday, September 12th and will be $30 September 13th through the morning of the event. T-Shirt sizes are only guaranteed through September 13th. We order extras and they are given to the registrants on a first come first serve basis. They will be available to the same day registrants as well if we have their size.


This year each participant and winner will receive an award inspired by our new mural and awards are given to the top male and female winners of the following categories: Masters (40+) , Grand Masters (50+) , Senior Grand Masters (60+) , Top Runners overall
