Maple Syrup Fun Run
Saturday, May 7, 2022
The Maple Syrup Fun Run is a trail run of mixed terrain of flat, smooth surfaces to trails with gravel/dirt and exposed tree roots. The race gets its name from harvesting maple syrup on site from our maple trees which is then used at the pancake brunch following the fun run. We are in our 8th year of running this race and offer multiple distances from a 1 mile walk/hike, 5K, 10K, 25K and 50K routes.
