About the race
The Crawfish and Cannons event at Fort Belknap takes place on April 10, 2027 and combines food, music, and family activities on the historic fort grounds. The program includes a live crawfish boil, cannon firing on the hour, children’s activities, a farmers market with vendors, armadillo races, and live music. A Texas Forts Trail Wine Festival will feature wineries and vineyards from across Texas and will use the grape arbor at Fort Belknap. The Goodnight Loving Run is presented as the 6th annual edition and offers three measured distances on an out-and-back course that begins at the entrance gate of Fort Belknap.
The route starts and ends at the fort entrance and references the site’s history as the birthplace of the Goodnight-Loving Cattle Trail. Practical race information provided by the organizer includes on-site gear check at registration, ample parking across from Fort Belknap on FM 61, and admission wristbands that allow re-entry while intact. Walkers are permitted on the 5K and 10K if they complete the course within the event time limit. Pets are not allowed at the race or the Crawfish and Cannons event.
The schedule also lists an awards ceremony and vendor opportunities and sponsorship packages for businesses. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
