Andrea Holden Thanksgiving 5K Road Race
The Andrea Holden Thanksgiving 5k walk/run is an annual community benefit event organized by a non-profit 501(c)(3) foundation dedicated to the health and wellness of children in the local community. The race takes place each year on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and begins at the Dennis Inn on Scarsdale Road. Parking is available at the Dennis Playhouse.
The event distance is 3.1 miles (5k) and it is offered as a run and a walk. All funds raised support programs and services for children in the Mid-Cape area. Beneficiaries and funded activities have included scholarships to local high schools, emergency pediatric equipment for ambulances, a playground rebuild at Ezra Baker School, handicapped beach accessible chairs, summer camper-ships, pediatric emergency response seminars, and support for local youth organizations and community services.
Event materials available to participants and the public include a course map, photos and results from past years, registration and sponsorship information, and raffle and sponsor application forms. The race is presented as a community remembrance and benefit, with proceeds directed to a range of child-focused health, education and emergency programs across the region.
