Crabtree West Celebration

Celebrate Crabtree Creek Trail’s Extension “Our greenways are a signature amenity that differentiates Raleigh from other places,” says Beverley Clark, chair of the city’s parks recreation and greenway advisory board and founder of the Friends of Raleigh Greenways (FRoG). On Sept. 14, FRoG is celebrating the completion of the final extension of the Crabtree Creek Trail, which closes the gap between Umstead Park and the Neuse River. “It has spectacular elevated switchbacks and a beautiful suspension bridge,” says Clark. Join FRoG for a 5K race or 10-mile bike ride, or watch the little ones parade across the new bridge. Meteorologist Elizabeth Gardner will host the event, which also includes a DJ and food trucks. Proceeds will go toward public art installations along the greenway. “We are eager for more citizens to understand the importance of our greenways,” says Clark. “They’re essentially Raleigh’s largest park, connecting people and places from one end of the city to the other.” Sept. 14 | 8:30 a.m.; $20 to race; free to attend festival; parking lot of Grubb Ventures, 5171 Glenwood Avenue; friendsoftheraleighgreenway.org
