Like Running or Walking? Love Wine? This race is for you!
Join us on Saturday, August 3, 2024 at 9:00am for an exciting new event that features the amazing scenery and landscape of Big Cork Vineyards! Their name might be BIG, but what makes them so special is something small. Big Cork’s idyllic, microclimate and fertile soil yields smaller grapes with more concentrated flavors, resulting in (you guessed it) BIG and intensely flavorful wines.. So, whether you are looking to run, walk or just enjoy the wine this race is a sure thing for a great time and an incredible experience! This race is timed and scored by J3 Timing. Results will be posted at www.J3Timing.com.
Registration Includes:
- T-shirt: Super Soft Ring Spun Cotton t-shirt included!
- Wine Glass: Shatterproof, Collapsible, and Portable!
- Finisher Medal: Doubles as a wine coaster!
- Race Bib: Chip timed 5k run/walk
- Results Posted Online
- ...and of course, a pour of wine!

But hunger doesn't affect everyone equally - some groups face like children, seniors, and Black, Indigenous, and other people of color face hunger at much higher rates. Hunger also most often affects our neighbors who live in poverty. Please consider make a donation to help fight hunger. For more information click here!
