Event Overview

Join us for the Howl-O-Ween Hustle at The Corn Crib! This event features a 5K run/walk and a 1-mile walk option, with the course taking participants around the Corn Crib grounds and onto Heartland Community College’s campus.

Fundraising Purpose

The Howl-O-Ween Hustle is a fundraiser benefiting Wish Bone Canine Rescue, with special participation from our rescue partners: Deeby's Senior Chihuahua Rescue and McLean County Animal Services. Together, we’re working to give more pets the safe, happy homes they deserve.
