RUNNING THROUGH HISTORY

Come and celebrate the historic community of Penney Farms by joining your fellow runners at the start-line for the 7th Annual Penney Farms Historic 5K Run. Race along the tree-lined residential streets of the J.C. Penney Memorial Scenic Highway loop and visualize the fields and dairy herds that grazed there. In the 1920’s, it is said that a hundred men with their mules tilled the fields of Penney – Gwinn Farm.

Those who participated in the past enjoyed a well organized run, beautiful weather, good fun and great prizes. Plan to join us this year for this competitive event and routed through picturesque Penney Farms.

PRESERVING THE PAST

Proceeds from the race will support the efforts of the J.C. Penney Memorial Scenic Highway volunteers to protect, preserve and enhance the scenic, historic and cultural resources on the tree-lined scenic highway corridor and loop while promoting tourist activities and encouraging economic development that benefits the community and embraces our goals to preserve as much history as possible for future generations.
