Event Information
The Fence Stile Vineyards Wine Run/Walk 5k takes place at Fence Stile Vineyards & Winery in Excelsior Springs, Missouri.
The Course
The event features a 5k cross-country style course consisting of two loops around the winery property. The route passes through areas with trees, wooded sections, a pond, and rows of grapevines. The course includes grass and uneven ground. The event uses chip timing for the run/walk.
Registration Details
A standard registration includes a race bib, a finisher medal, a soft cotton t-shirt, and a portable, collapsible wine glass. Finishers also receive a pour of wine. The event supports the Gladstone Parks, Recreation & Cultural Arts "Recreation Connection Scholarship Program," which helps low-income families afford recreational programs.
Participation Notes
Walking is permitted. The event is open to minors, who receive a discounted registration that includes a shirt, medal, and bib, but not a wine glass or wine. Strollers are allowed but not recommended due to the uneven terrain; children in strollers do not need to register. Dogs are not permitted on-site due to USDA regulations for produce farms.
Awards
Age group awards are given to the top three finishers in ten-year categories ranging from 19 & under to 80 & over. Competitive runners must start in the first group to be eligible for these awards. There is no awards ceremony; winners can check results online and pick up their award at the registration table approximately one hour after the first wave starts. Awards are only available on event day.
Logistics
Packet pickup occurs on race day only, starting one hour before a participant's selected start time. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
