Musser is a well-known volunteer and business owner in the community, and also writes a column for Saucon Source.
The 5K is a run/walk that will begin and end at the Saucon Street rail trail connection in Hellertown, which is near Braveheart Highland Pub, 430 Main St., Hellertown, where participants will park in the restaurant’s lot.
Race packet pickup will begin at 10 a.m.
Participants will run or walk approximately 1.5 miles of the trail in Hellertown borough and Lower Saucon Township before turning around and ending back at Saucon Street.
After the walk/run, everyone is invited back to Braveheart, where participants are welcome to a beverage and to continue the festivities.
Tickets for the Run Brave for Brews are $25 each (plus a $2.37 fee) and can be purchased online.
