With craft vendors, businesses, educators, and food vendors, it’s sure to be a day full of fun and a great opportunity to meet more people in your community!

This year there is something different – the inaugural Loganville Autumn Dash 5K which will take place just before the Autumn Fest so everyone is encourage everyone to come out to participate in the race and then spend the rest of the day at the festival. The race is for runners and walkers of all ages and capabilities so you’re invited to bring your kids, your mom, your grandpa, and your cousin. You can register for the race in advance for $30 on RunSignUp.com, or you can register in person on the day of the race for $35.

The map below gives the route of the run. Packet pickup and race day registration begins at 8 am on October 17, and the race will begin at 9 am. Race awards will take place at 10 am on the Town Green stage, and medals will be awarded to the top three finishers in each age group. 

All the proceeds from the Autumn Dash 5K will go to benefit public safety mental health and PTSD foundations in the Loganville and surrounding areas through the Loganville Employee Emergency Assistance Fund (LEEAF), which is a non-profit organization that was created to help Loganville city employees with unexpected costs related to catastrophe, illness, injury, death, disability, or disaster. 

You are invited to grab your crew, sip something pumpkin-spiced, and join in with all the festive fun. For more information, visit www.loganville-ga.gov.
