Scarecrow 5k
Participants dress in costume and run a 3.1-mile course winding through the scenic Ashton Gardens and Discovery Garden. Along the path, runners encounter creative scarecrows built by community members, with a few that might come to life. Finishers take home a custom medal and race t-shirt, and awards are presented for top runners as well as best individual and group costumes.
