Trick-or-Trail at the Warlick Family YMCA

Trick-or-Trail is a fall event at the Warlick Family YMCA in Gastonia, North Carolina, held on October 24, 2026. The event uses the Sytz Family Trail System, a trail network that covers over three miles, and offers both a trail race and a shorter fun run.

Distances included:

  • 5K Trail Run on the Sytz Family Trail System.
  • 1 mile Fun Run intended for enjoyment rather than competition.

A party zone runs alongside the races and is free and open to all. The party area features bounce houses, games, music, a mascot race, and other family oriented activities. Costumes are encouraged and participants commonly attend with family, friends, and pets.

Registration details listed for the event note that registrants who register by October 14 are guaranteed a race t shirt. A promotional code TOT26 is available for a five dollar discount on the 5K Trail Run registration and is valid through October 14 with restrictions on prior registrations and other offers.

A preparatory Walk 2 Run training program is offered as an eight week series that meets twice weekly for 60 minutes, led by a personal trainer, and runs from August 18 through October 8, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
