Those running in the 5K will also be able to view the balloon event following their run. Currently 160 are registered to run and more are expected. This is over 60 more than registered last year according to Fain.  Fain said she is thankful for the support of local police and the sheriff’s department in traffic control for the safety of the runners.

Cost to register for the run is $35. for individuals and $20 per person for groups of five or more. Awards will be given to race winners and groups as well. Registration is available here.
