Runners, walkers, families and nature enthusiasts are invited to enjoy emerging signs of spring when Adkins Arboretum hosts its ninth annual Arbor Day Run Sat., April 5.
Managed by TriSportsEvents and featuring a 5K Run, a 5K Walk, and a free Healthy Kids 100-yard dash, the event is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy an early spring morning in nature. Participants will catch glimpses of spring as they run the cross-country trail plotted along the Arboretum’s network of scenic forest and meadow paths.
Awards will be presented for all events. Post-race activities include refreshments, a nature project for children and a native tree raffle. Registration begins at 8 a.m., with the Kids’ Dash at 8:50 a.m. The 5K Run and 5K Walk commence at 9 a.m.
Registration is underway, with a discount for those who register by March 29. For fee information or to register, visit adkinsarboretum.org or call 410.634.2847, ext. 0
