DARKE COUNTY – Get active and join Darke County Parks for the annual Raptor Run 5K!

On Oct. 19 the 5K will take place on the beautiful park trails of Shawnee Prairie Preserve.

Run or walk through pristine prairies, under woodland canopies, and around wetland wildlife. Pass by iconic locations at Shawnee Prairie like the Sugar Shack, Log House, and Blacksmith Shop before returning to the finish line near the Nature Center. All proceeds will benefit the Raptor education program at the Darke County Parks.

The 5K run/walk will begin at 9 am and may be completed at your own pace. The route will utilize the trails in and around Shawnee Prairie and most will be natural turf/terrain (unpaved). There may be muddy sections depending on the season.

There is still time to register! For more information or to register, visit www.darkecountyparks.org/raptor5k
