About the RTB Fair Winds 5k/Fun Run
The course runs through Quiet Waters Park on paved trails that wind through woods and meadows. It is a comfortable surface underfoot with natural scenery throughout, and the park setting gives the route a sheltered, tree-lined feel even on open stretches.
Costumes are a real part of the morning here. Prizes go to the best individual and best group or family costume, so some people show up having put in serious effort. The race raises money for academic and camp scholarships, so the crowd tends to be invested in the event beyond the running itself.
