Join the University of St. Augustine for a great time to get out in the community, meet some new people, and support a good cause! The 10th Annual University of St. Augustine 5K Run/Walk and Family Fun Fair event is Saturday, October 24th. The 5K run/walk begins at 8 am, and after the race join us for the FREE family fun fair, with a moonwalk, fun slide, obstacle course, basketball shootout, face painting, super-hero appearances, fire-rescue trucks, life guard and beach safety, lots of free food and great music.

Last year this event helped raise over $8,000 for Project Special Care, a group that provides advocacy, care and therapy for children and young adults who are facing challenges and/or crisis in their life. Over 500 people participated in this community-wide event promoting healthy living. The event is held on the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences’ campus, located east of Flagler Hospital.
