The event features a 5K Run/Walk and a separate Kid's Fun Run for children 12 and under. Children must register and have a parent sign to enter the Kid's Fun Run. Fun Run participants will receive a numbered bib and a medal. All 5K participants who register will receive the annual Strawberry Festival run medal.

Organizers note that the bandstand area will be a central location for registration and gathering. There will be many people parking and gathering near the bandstand, and orange cones and volunteers will mark the race route and assist with safety. Following the 5K, live music, vendors, ice cream and food trucks will be at the Hickories bandstand into the evening. Named vendors scheduled to attend include Ice Cream Works, Pitstop Popcorn and The Cellar Restaurant.
