It is not too late to register for High Bridge Trail State Park’s annual National Trails Day 5K run. The event will take place on Saturday, June 3, starting at the Camp Paradise access to High Bridge Trail, at 8 a.m. The racecourse crosses the historic High Bridge twice. Registration is $30, which the Friends of High Bridge Trail State Park will use to improve the park in many meaningful ways.

High Bridge officials said they also thank the Farmville Food Lion for their continuing support of this event. Awards will be presented to the top three overall male and female finishers and top three finishers in each age category. The top overall male and female finishers will each win a free weekend cabin stay in a Virginia State Park. Custom placer and finisher medals will be awarded for all age categories.
