Sebastian Scream 5K & Haunted Rail Trail

Indian River County First Responders are excited to present the SEBASTIAN SCREAM 5K & HAUNTED RAIL TRAIL. Why it Matters: First Responders face intense challenges on the job every day. Proceeds from this event will directly support counseling services, peer-support programs, and critical stress debriefing initiatives for our local Police, Sheriff, Fire and EMS personnel. Race Information: Each race participant will receive a Sebastian Scream 5K & Haunted Rail Trail T-shirt while supplies last. Register by October 6th for a guaranteed shirt. Each race participant will receive (1) ticket to the Haunted Rail Trail ( Haunted Trail may be too intense for young children ) Award for best costume. Join us after the race at the North County Aquatic Center while the Indian River County Parks and Recreation Department hosts Trunk-or-Treat.
