    Other Notes:

    PARKING: includes street shoulder spaces and short walks to event sites. Please plan to coordinate and drop off anyone needing access support as there are very few accommodating parking spaces. Plan for some muddy areas. 
    WALKERS WELCOME! The greenway is a gentle, paved sidewalk along the French Broad River. Please participate! A note to serious runners: this is foremost a community gathering with children.
    BRING CHAIRS: We seek to enjoy the afternoon together and by bringing a canvas / camping chair, you’ll be far more comfortable. There are very few picnic tables.
    FOOD & BEVERAGE: available for purchase. Burgers, chicken sandwich, fries, tots and a couple of salad options. You are welcome to bring your own picnic, but no alcohol from outside. Local beer, wines, ciders, sodas and juices available for purchase. BRING YOUR OWN WATER BOTTLE.
    BATHROOMS: there are 4 portable bathrooms on site (in addition to the one in the parking lot of the actual park)
    COSTUMES: Optional yet encouraged! Please get in the springtime spirit and come decked in your flying colors. This can include a single commitment to a favorite or a dazzling display of the rainbow.

    SAFETY: Attendees are personally responsible for themselves, their family members and their belongings. The run is a personally liable activity. By registering, you hold Odyssey School, the Buncombe County Park system, the French Broad River Outfitters and all said representatives harmless of any injury. This is a family friendly event. Please drink responsibly.

    CHILDREN AGE FIVE AND UNDER FREE.
