#StayActive 5k

The Union County Health Department aims to promote a healthier community by encouraging residents to be active all year round. With obesity rates higher than state and national averages, the department emphasizes using the county's extensive trail network to stay fit, regardless of weather or season. As part of these efforts, the #StayActive 5K provides an engaging opportunity for community members to embrace an active lifestyle. Proceeds support the Union County Health Department and initiatives to prevent youth food insecurity. The event takes participants through scenic routes beginning at Mill Creek Park and utilizing the Jim Simmons Trail.
