Let’s dash through the trails at Imerman Park along with partners Bayne’s Apple Valley, Jolt Credit Union and Team One Credit Union!

Course Description

Imerman Park is the setting for a beautiful 1.5 mile loop that runners and walkers will complete twice. A firmly packed trail (no promises on snow!) winds through the woods and along the Tittabawassee River, making for a scenic outing. The course is mostly flat with a few small inclines. The trail will be ungroomed and will NOT be plowed if snow arrives. Please be prepared for any conditions!
