Main Street Mile to blaze through downtown Waynesville

The second annual Waynesville Main Street Mile will be held on Friday, August 12.

The race ends at the historic courthouse, and starts a mile up the street from it, making for a mostly downhill, one-way course.

A post-race party will feature pizza, beer from Highland Brewing Company and live music, popcorn and cotton candy, and various kids’ activities sponsored by Grandpa Ernie, FunShine Faces, and Fun Things Etc.

Cost is $15 in advance or $20 day-of. Includes T-shirt and stocked goody-bag.

All proceeds from sponsors and runner registrations go to Shriners Children’s Hospital of Greenville.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.
