The run features 5-mile and 3-mile routes through the woods of the 2,000-acre Chinquapin Community on the Cashiers-Highlands plateau. Live music by Circus Mutt, outdoors games, archery and bird of prey demonstrations, award-winning barbeque, beer from The Ugly Dog Public House and a junior-sized adventure course for kids sweeten the deal. 

$50 with t-shirt, lunch and drink included. Must be 14 to enter, but spectators are welcome. Funds benefit the Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce and construction of a new fire station on Breedlove Road for the Cashiers-Glenville Volunteer Fire Department.
