A race on the inflatable obstacle course is always exciting. Parents can race their kids or kids can race other kids, either way everybody is out having a great time and getting healthy.


Are you an avid runner and want to share that with your children? Or are you just getting into exercising and want to pace yourself. The 1 mile Family Fun Run or Walk is perfect for anybody. You can walk with your whole family or race to the end. Sign up today to get the day started with a nice warm-up. https://forms.gle/iFsGfyuZbMBn6bqq5 March 29th Starts at 9:00 am Check-in at 8:30 am $10/individual or $30/family
