Lace Up!
Join Eagle Ranch this June for their annual Run the Ranch event, including a new family block party with activities for all ages!
Eagle Ranch is inviting its Northeast Georgia neighbors to its Run the Ranch and family block party event on June 15.
Each year, hundreds of runners and walkers have enjoyed Run the Ranch’s 5K, fun run and nature walk events since the event kicked off in 2016. This year’s event is bigger and better than ever, featuring a family block party that is free to the community.
Free Block Party
The free family block party includes tons of fun activities, including festival games with prizes, a rock wall, inflatables, cotton candy, snow cones and more. Food trucks and vendors, including Papa Jacks, Chill Latte, Chick-fil-A and Simply Done Donuts, will be on hand with great food and goodies for purchase!
The block party fun kicks off at 9 a.m. While it is free to attend, if you’re just coming for the block party and not the race, please register by visiting EagleRanch.org/RTR and select the “Block Party Only” registration button.
New Race Course
Run the Ranch races kick off at 8:15 a.m. with the half-mile fun run. The 5K starts at 8:35 a.m., and a 1.5-mile nature walk starts at 8:40 a.m. All runner registrations include access to the family block party — so no additional registration is required.
Run the Ranch is designed to be an affordable event with a premium race shirt and fun swag bag. A family discount makes this a great event for families of all sizes. Register by visiting EagleRanch.org/RTR and select the “Race Registration” button.
The new closed, chip-timed course will still include fun, challenging hills but now features a faster return route, helping you make a triumphant finish! 5K awards will be three deep for all age groups.
