Harvest 5K

We look forward to seeing you this weekend for the Harvest 5K! Race check-in and packet pickup will be 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. outside at the east end of the OSC. Please note that Wierwille Road will be closed at 12:30 p.m. for the race.

Join us on Saturday, November 11, 2023 as we host our annual Harvest 5K and Concert at The Way International Headquarters in New Knoxville, Ohio.
Move your body and breathe the fresh, crisp, fall air as you walk or run the 5K. In the evening, enjoy a Harvest Concert that is sure to uplift and encourage you with family-friendly entertainment in celebration of God’s abundance.

Guests are welcome to participate in both the 5K and concert or just one of the events. To run or walk the 5K requires registration; however, the concert is open and free for everyone. Bring your family and friends along too! Then on Sunday morning, join us for our Sunday Teaching Service at The Word Over the World Auditorium.

What's a harvest event without hot chocolate and apple cider? There will be plenty of both to refresh you throughout the event. There will also be water and light post-race snacks for participants.

It is also available to pre-order Jimmy John's box lunches. Choose between an 8" Turkey or Veggie sub. Each box includes chips, a pickle spear, and a cookie. To order, select this option while registering for the event of your choice. Add on as many boxes as you'd like and the cost will be added onto your registration total. It will be available to pick up your box lunches between 11:00 am and 3:30 pm. Enjoy before the races, save it for later, or do both!

Not participating in a race but still want to pre-order a meal? Select that "event" option. Meals are $11.00 each. There is no "registration fee" when only ordering meals, but the cost will be added at check-out based on the quantity ordered. Register by October 27 to pre-order meals.
