Fayette Cares High Cotton 5k

Fayette Cares hosts the High Cotton 5k/1k Run/Walk in Somerville, Tennessee, centered at First United Methodist Church (202 S. East St.). The event offers a 5k route described as scenic, with a historic cemetery along the course, and a 1k fun run.

In addition to racing, finishers can earn cotton-themed awards at the Fayette County Chamber Cotton Festival, a family-friendly celebration with live music, inflatables, games, food, and car show. Proceeds support Fayette Cares’ efforts to end homelessness and domestic violence. The event invites walkers and even pets (with a pet pass) for a community day of fitness and service.
