From the Organizer
Audubon Community Nature Center's Wild 5k run/walk is back! Fall is a great time to experience Audubon’s trails. The run/walk course takes participants through shady hemlock forests, over boardwalks, past fields, and back to the Nature Center. Audubon’s trail system is in a glacial valley, which makes the trail exceptionally flat.
The course starts out on a 12-foot-wide maintenance road before narrowing to 6-foot-wide trails further on. The course is well-marked with white arrows. Come run, walk, stroll, or saunter to support Audubon. This year, money raised in the Wild 5k will support care for our Animal Ambassadors, including our three birds-of-prey.
