Join us again this year for the Great Grape Race, a fundraiser benefiting the Winesburg Reunion! We're excited to introduce a new 10K distance alongside our traditional 5K, giving runners even more ways to enjoy race day.

Whether you choose the 5K or take on the new 10K challenge, you'll experience the scenic, rolling hills of Amish Country. Both courses wind through beautiful farmland and pastureland along Township Road 671 and 670, offering a peaceful and picturesque route for runners and walkers alike.

Cookies from Timbercrest Bakery and water will be available for runners at the finish line. The event concludes at Winesburg Park, where the Fall Festival will be taking place. After the race, there will be food trucks, softball games, and various festival activities throughout the rest of the day.

All participants will receive a medal and a voucher for an ice cream cone from Whitmer's General Store.

Parking will be in the field behind the playground at Winesburg park. Participants will need to drive past the park entrance on TR 671. They will enter the drive at 7771 TR 671 and park in the field past the house. There will be signs indicating where to park the day of the race.

NOTE: Shirt deadline is 2 weeks prior to event. Anyone registering after this date will not receive a t-shirt.
