Event Details |
<p class="information">Join us for the 12th Annual Pufferbelly Run, Walk, and Stroll 10K, 5K Family Run/Walk, and 1 Mile Kids' Fun Run. We will be continuing the virtual options for 2021 for those that would still like to support Fort Wayne Trails but would feel safer participating away from larger groups. We are hoping to have an event that looks a little more normal this year, but the ultimate focus is the safety of our staff, volunteers, and participants. We will keep everyone up to date on changes if any should occur. We are excited to see you all in July!
The proceeds from this event will be used for trail development activities. One of the biggest projects in our community is the conversion of the former New York Railroad into a paved recreational path called the Pufferbelly Trail in Fort Wayne. When completed, it will link downtown Fort Wayne to Pokagon State Park in Angola and south to Ouabache State Park in Bluffton. At 81 miles, and called the Poka-Bache Connector, it will become the spine for a regional trails system that will provide endless health and recreational opportunities for residents and visitors to the Fort Wayne area.</p>
