Dresden Melon Festival 10K

The Dresden Melon Festival 10K and 5K is a running event held in Dresden, Ohio, at the Village of Dresden River Park near Tri-Valley High School. The race features a paved out-and-back course along the scenic, tree-lined Dresden bike trail, following the Muskingum River and village streets. Both the 10K and 5K races are timed, with an additional non-timed 5K fun run and a kids' 100m dash.

Participants enjoy a traditional grass finish under a tree canopy by the river. The event offers awards for top finishers in various age groups and includes race packets with softstyle shirts and refreshments. Walkers are welcome. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
