A special event has been slated for Hermitage that will give members of the public a chance to earn their Thanksgiving turkey dinner. At the same time, they will be helping to make sure the river’s watershed will continue to offer both wildlife habitat and fun for people for many years to come.
The annual Gobble Wobble, which is billed as being Shenango Valley’s largest 5k run, will be held in Buhl Farm Park. This year’s charity of choice is Shenango River Watchers, and it can be a lot of fun whether the participants run, walk, roll, or even wobble across the finish line.
On the day of the race, registration will open at 8:00 am, and the run itself will begin at 9:30 am sharp. Those who choose to sign up ahead of time will only have to pay $10, while anyone who would prefer to wait until the day of the activity will be asked to pay $15. Anyone who would like to lend their support to Shenango River Watchers can still make a difference by making a monetary donation, and more details about this are included on the Gobble Wobble website.
The participants in the fundraiser who wish to sport some special duds when they run are welcome to purchase an event T-shirt. These will be printed with a special graphic design.
This year’s Gobble Wobble will be hitting the paths and trails in Buhl Farm Park on November 24. All are invited to be a part of the festivities.
