"Run With The Cows" 5K 2014 - 2019
In 2014, the Friends of the Chinqua-Penn Walking Trail were looking for ways to raise money to cover the costs of repairs to the Spring House roof. At the May 2014 FCPWT meeting, Libby Barrett, T Butler, Bob Carter, Dee Dove, Becky Loyacano, and Lee Templeton brainstormed ideas for a different "signature event" kind of fundraiser. They came up with a 5K run with stations along the trail that featured the unique elements of the trail's environment: farming, cattle, estate history, birds, invasive plants, etc. The first "Run With The Cows" 5K, also known as "’The Udder 5K Fun Run/Walk," took place in September 2014 and was a big success. The annual event got bigger in subsequent years, and was halted only by Covid 19 in 2020.
