Franklin County High School is proud to host the 3RD annual Franklin County Pridelands Invitational. The course is the sight of the 8 AAA Region Championships and has been called one of the best new courses in Georgia. Our trail is all grass with one of the states most challenging layouts, featuring a wide open starting field traveling into constantly rolling hills, and wide open lanes to race on. If you are looking for a course to test your athletes abilities, this is the race for you. Spectators and coaches will have access to almost 100% of the course to view each race. This year we are allowing the first 20 teams to enter in each division.
