Join us at historic Elmwood Cemetery for the 8th Annual Graveyard 5K on Saturday, October 25th!
This one-of-a-kind run winds entirely through the beautiful grounds of Elmwood Cemetery—home to some of Kansas City’s most notable figures—and supports vital preservation and maintenance efforts.
Looking ahead to 2026, we’re excited to announce a 1-mile fun run for all ages and age group winners! We will also have fun activities to enjoy post-race.
Some fun facts about Elmwood Cemetery include:
🎃 Keep an eye out for the headstone of Americus McKim, the owner of KC's first professional baseball team, The Kansas City Unions. Without him, we wouldn't be able to cheer on the Royals today!
🎃 Kirkland Brooks Armour, the founding member of Armour and Company Meat Packing, is buried in the Armour Family plot in Elmwood. Armour Boulevard is named after Kirkland and his family.
🎃 The Elmwood Cemetery is the second oldest cemetery in Kansas City.
🎃 It's also the final resting place of 766 soldiers who fought in the Civil War on both sides.

This year's Brew to Boo is going to be a slight adjustment compared to previous years. Rather than running nearly a marathon from South Kansas City to North Kansas City, we're going to stay near the Kansas City Downtown and there will be two participation options as well!
The first option is a Pub Crawl in the Crossroads. We'll start at Torn Label and make our way west from brewery to brewery until we end up at Casual Animal. By utilizing this format, my hope is to keep a good size group together and make it much easier for people to join up later in the day if need be.
The second option is the actual running portion of Brew to Boo. While the Pub Crawl is happening, runners will shoot off to another brewery outside of the Crossroads, grab a drink, and run back. There are 5 legs to this including Boulevard, Strange Days, Alma Mader, Stockyard, and Vine Street. Total miles on this is about 16.5 miles so, while I'm encouraging team relays, an individual could complete the entire Brew to Boo on their own.
New Hope Christian School, located in Smithville, Missouri, is excited to announce their inaugural turkey trail trot 5k on November 27, 2025. This self-timed event will be a fundraiser for the school to support Christian education in Smithville. All proceeds from the race will go toward the New Hope Scholarship Fund which helps defray the cost of tuition for deserving families attending New Hope who demonstrate a financial need.
This first-ever turkey trot in Smithville will be held in the Smith's Fork recreation area with ample parking near the soccer and baseball fields as well as overflow parking at Grace Community Church, just a cross MO Hwy DD. All participants registered by November 21st will receive a t-shirt and finisher's medal. As mentioned, this inaugural event will be self-timed.
The course has something to offer all skill levels, with a 1.25ish family friendly fun run and a challenging back-half that will leave experienced trail runners exhilarated. All runners will begin on the former Julia Bargman Memorial Cross Country course and wind along the tree line where deer sightings are common. This section of the course also offers several 'Nature Knowledge' stations along the way.
Participants of the full 5k will continue on and run through the seasonal campground on an asphalt road and head across the spillway towards the gravel/dirt trails of the Lake Remote area. In this section you will encounter tree roots, rocks, and uneven terrain, so watch your footing. Also watch for bald eagles (although more common in December, sightings in November are possible as the bald eagles begin their winter migration) as you break through the trees to the beauty and serenity of Lake Remote. Catch your breath here though because you will soon encounter the course's biggest hill. What goes up must come down however and the technical descent is no joke! Rocks, roots, and uneven ground are plentiful, but it doesn't last long You will bottom out along the Little Platte river bottom and run along the grassy bank before rejoining the gravel path leading back to the spillway and the finish line.
Please consider helping to make this first ever New Hope Turkey Trot a success while supporting Christian education in Smithville. Our hope is that, with your help, this event can become a Northland tradition like no other! Register by Friday, November 21, 2025 to be guaranteed a t-shirt. Children 5 and under can participate for free. . . Runner packets and t-shirts (if registered by 11/21) may be picked up on Wednesday, November 26th between 4:00PM and 6:00PM at the Smithville United Methodist Church located at 505 North US-169 Hwy.
