Join us for the 4th Annual H.E.R.O Freedom Run featuring a 1-mile fun run and 5k run/walk on the beautiful cross-country course now being held onsite at Freedom River in Hamburg Township (Down the road from the Hamburg Family Fun Fest). We will kick off with a 1-mile fun run at 6:30 pm and our 5K run/walk at 7pm on a cross-country style course.
