Frederick County Parks and Recreation is once again partnering with Runners' Retreat to bring a fun twist to one of their Thursday evening group runs! The Holiday Scavenger Hunt Fun Run is a great way to celebrate the holiday season while getting some exercise. Participants of all ages will run/walk while searching for holiday-themed items along the way. Teams will have one hour to run around, find and take photos of items then return to Runners’ Retreat. After, we will have a social get together at Vibrissa to announce the winning team who will receive a prize! Drinks and food are on your own. Details: · Teams will consist of up to 2-4 runners/walkers. · Each team will receive a list of items with assigned points. · Teams must stay together for the entire run. Once you find an item, take a photo and be sure to include your team members in the photo. Some items have BONUS points, so be sure to try to score extra! · Make sure at least one person on the team will be running with a running watch and a phone (with space for photos!). · Start your watch as soon as you leave the store and don't hit stop until you return! Be sure to let the event leaders know your team's final distance. 🌟 Be a Beacon of Holiday Spirit: Light Up! Illuminate the night with the warmth of your holiday spirit! We encourage each participant to don reflective clothing and equip yourselves with festive lights. Whether it's twinkling fairy lights, glowing necklaces, or jingle bell bracelets – the more, the merrier! Not only will you stand out in the crowd, but you'll also add a magical glow to our holiday celebration. 🚨 Safety First – Stay Visible! With the excitement of the scavenger hunt, it's easy to get caught up in the thrill. To ensure everyone's safety, please prioritize visibility. Reflective clothing acts like a festive cloak of invisibility to passing vehicles, making you easily spotted. Whether it's a reflective headband, shoelaces, or a stylish reflective jacket, let your festive attire dazzle and ensure you're seen by all. Let's all shine bright and stay visible as we dash through the holiday wonderland.

EquiSol Race Series (A Park for All Seasons) - Winter Solstice 5k   Welcome to the new race series in 2026 benefitting the Gwinnett Parks Foundation.   This race is the 4th of 4 races in the series with one in each quarter falling on or close to the Equinox or Solstice.  Each medal will magnetically link together to create a large medal map of Gwinnett County and its parks so do miss out to run all 4 races.  (if you do happen to miss one and we have left over medals, we will open up a virtual option for you to run and receive your missing medal to create you full larger medal)   Due to having to order the medals early for all 4 events, the first 200 runners will receive medals on site.  If we have additional runners we will order more and have them shipped to you (or you can pick up when ready)   Also you will receive a $20 refund if you refer 5 others.   Performance Race Services and the Gwinnett Park Foundation have teamed up to give you the opportunity to explore 4 of the many parks

Get in the holiday spirit with the most festive 5K of all! Winding through the beautiful pine tree acreage of Walnut Ridge Tree Farm, you'll be filled with the Christmas spirit as you embark on a 5K journey through glimmering lights and the beauty of the season. Participant's families and friends can come spectate while enjoying the fun atmosphere, enjoying fresh hot cocoa and the merriment of the Christmas season.  The 1K race is primarily geared towards children and walkers who may prefer a shorter distance than the 5K. Both races will begin together, and the 1K participants will split off and turn left around a pine tree field while the 5K participants continue straight.  Both races will begin at 4:00pm in two waves about 1 minute apart, with the Pine K splitting off to the western pine grove quickly after the start while the 5K will continue straight to the northern pine groves.
