Dooker's Dash

Dooker's Dash is a family-friendly running event held in Tarbert on August 16, 2025, offering races for all ages and abilities. Young children can participate in flat, accessible races at the playpark, designed to be calm and inclusive. School-age participants race safely on a traffic-free football pitch, while adults and older teens can take on a scenic 5km route starting at Garval Point, winding through Tarbert harbour, and finishing at the marina.

Every participant receives a medal and goody bag. After the races, attendees are invited to enjoy activities like lawn bowls, pickleball, and basketball at the Tarbert Bowling Club, creating a fun community atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
