More than two dozen people took part in the mountain run/walk/hike, with the $350 raised for Ride 2 Survive and $100 for the Liberty High School Honor Society.

The Fall Festival included about 25 vendors offering food, bounce houses, hay rides, corn mazes, pumpkin picking and more at the park.

About $450 was raised and food within the expiration date and new and unused personal care products were also accepted.

About 30 Redhawk students and 10 staff members volunteered for the event, which drew about 450 people to Walnut Mountain.

Student give prizes for finishers of the 5k near a finish size.“The Great Pumpkin Dash was a true testament to our collective spirit,” said Katlyn Rusin, Liberty Middle School Assistant Principal and LCSD Community Schools Coordinator. “Our schools are the heartbeat of this town. It’s incredibly rewarding to see our students and staff give back, and to feel that same support echoed by the community in return.”
