This year, Verdun is getting into the Halloween spirit! To add some extra fun to our 5K event, we’re excited to announce that the top three race costumes will receive a special award, so don’t be afraid to get creative and show off your spooky style! The 5K will take place on Verdun Adventure Bound’s beautiful Cross Country Course, located on our 70-acre property in Rixeyville, Virginia. As you run or walk through the woods, be sure to follow the SASQUATCH to the finish line! Following the race will be music at the amphitheater, food, awards, a pumpkin carving contest, best race costume awards, and a special Message of Hope.
