Event Bits and Bobs

• We are dog-friendly. No additional fee to run or walk with your leashed dog but please stay towards the back of the pack. Be mindful of other runners and walkers. 
• Spectators welcome! 
• Parking will be your biggest challenge. Plan to allow extra time to park in the surrounding neighborhood or at a downtown garage. 
• It's better together. You can now sign up with your friends, colleagues, and family! You'll see the option to sign up as an individual, join an existing team or create your own when you register for the Run or Walk. 
• Want to be a part of the day without registering? We'd love for you to volunteer. Send us an email!
• While we run for our health, we run for a greener future. The Green Traill 5K aims to reduce waste by eliminating single-use plastic, promote more sustainable material, and ensure waste is properly disposed so our beautiful cemetery and trails stay green.

A Note on Respecting Our Grounds

Historic Easton Cemetery is a place of remembrance as well as a beautiful setting for our race. Many families still visit their loved ones here, and the monuments and gravestones are irreplaceable pieces of our community’s history.

To help us protect this special place, please:

• Stay on paved paths and roadways when walking or running, and avoid stepping on graves.
• Treat monuments with care. Please don’t lean on, sit on, or set items (including cups, bottles, and bags) on gravestones or monuments.
• Carry out what you carry in. Trash and recycling bins will be available, so please use them.
• Thank you for helping us keep the cemetery beautiful. We’re so glad you’re joining us!
