Red Neck Run Benefit for our wounded warriors

This summer, there is a new race in town!  On July 12th, Siegel’s Cottonwood Farm, Crest Hill, is hosting the Red Neck Run to benefit our wounded warriors.

Organize and register your team today (individual competition also) and come and get your Redneck on!  It’s not your normal run.  It is a down home redneck obstacle course/run here on the farm! The day will start with an obstacle course/run testing your physical skills, running through tires, slither like a snake in the mud, jumping over giant hay bales, navigating a rope maze and other challenging tasks.

In addition to the obstacle course/run there will be contests such as longest beard, Ma & Pa Cottonwood (best redneck outfits), hub cap hurl, tug o’ war, tire flip, just to name a few.  An after party will follow the close of the contests with the music of Summer Sun featuring country, Bob Marley and Jimmey Buffet).  The horse shoes and bags will be out for those still wanting more activity.  It will be a day full of challenges, fun, food and beverages, all to benefit our wounded warriors.
