Friday night and we’re feeling alright! That is the vibe you can expect this year on Friday, April 12th. Downtown Mount Olive will be buzzing with energy and excitement as we head into the festival events. One of the most looked forward to parts that really kicks things off is the Cuke Patch 5K Glow Run!
Run Details
The Cuke Patch 5K is your chance to GLOW as you run in the dark and prepare for a long, fun day of eating as many pickles as your heart desires! Groups of families and friends are invited to run or walk the route and you can even take advantage of group discounts. The glow run will wind through the picturesque downtown neighborhoods and in the vicinity of Westbrook Park in Downtown Mount Olive. Costumes are encouraged, so break out your neon and get ready to glow bright! Come early to enjoy washable neon paint as well.
