It will be a fun filled weekend beginning on Saturday with free health information and screening, booths and healthy food samples: concluding with the Sunday morning run/ walk and awards ceremony.
Course details: Out and back course starts in front of the hospital, continues on a quiet dirt road, downhill for the approx ¾ of a mile, across the scenic Noyo River, though a Redwood grove to the turnaround, and then back to finish. The course is known as the Old A and W road because there was once a soda pop stand on the road back in the days when it was a logging road for Georgia Pacific. Campbell Hawthorne Timber Company has granted permission to use the road.
