Join us for a leisurely walk or competitive 5K on the beautiful trails of Chelberg Farm to support the Field Station. We are also hosting a 1km Kids Run and 500m Kids Run!
Proceeds from our 5K directly benefit the Liz Scott Memorial Scholarship
The course features the scenic trails of the Indiana Dunes National Park, including portions of the Little Calumet River Trail and passes by several historic landmarks. Grass, mulch, dirt trails, and boardwalk will make up the majority of the course. This is a trail run and you should expect uneven surfaces, slippery leaves, roots, rocks, fallen branches, and other obstacles. No strollers or pets allowed.
