SHERMAN — The Heron Farm and Event Center will host the inaugural Heron Trail Run on Sunday, Aug. 18.

“We are pleased to be hosting a 5K Trail Run and Walk with Infinity for multiple reasons,” said Julie and Steve Rockcastle, owners of The Heron. “For one, we love Infinity and are excited to have found another way to collaborate with them. Secondly, we have great trails through our woodlands and farm pastures that will be challenging for the runners and super fun for the walkers.”

Participants will be able to run or walk on the trails at The Heron grounds, home of the Great Blue Heron Music Festival and Green Heron Growers. The 5K Run/Walk registration for this event is $25. Camping, meals, music and a bonfire are also available. The event is sanctioned by the U.S. ATF and all donations will support music and arts instruction at the Infinity Center in Jamestown.

“Music is a unifier for all people and as a nonprofit organization, we are always eager to try new fundraising ideas,” said Shane Hawkins, Infinity’s executive director. “Julie and the Great Blue Heron folks have always been generous in their support of the Infinity program since its inception. We are grateful for their invitation for Infinity to be a part of this event and are excited to share the day with everyone!”
