About the Event

Come join us at the Genesee County Park & Forest Sunday on October 4, 2026 for the 14th annual Run for the ACORNS 5K run/walk or 10K run

The courses are on single and double track trails through the forest, along a creek and up and down rolling hills in the Genesee County Park & Forest, with an estimated 100 feet of climb in the 10K loop. Trails are very wide and easy to negotiate (rocks and roots are clearly marked for safety). The courses start on asphalt and then lead into the woods for a truly beautiful run through the countryside.

All proceeds benefit ACORNS, a non-profit 501(c)(3) "friends of the park" group that supports the Genesee
County parks by connecting people with nature through outdoor learning, education and fun, and ACORNS
will donate a portion of the proceeds to support breast cancer research.
