The event on March 7, 2026, at Lake Mayer Park in Savannah, GA combines a charity 5K race with a free Family Health Day. The Family Health Day includes a community baby shower, free health screenings, family-friendly activities, and wellness resources. Registration for the race is $35. All proceeds benefit the Savannah Care Center, a local non-profit pregnancy resource center that offers free and confidential services such as pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, parenting education through the "Earn While You Learn" program, supportive care, and a fatherhood program.
Location, course and logistics
The start and finish are located next to the park pavilion. The course consists of two laps around the park, with a left turn near the parking lot before completing the second lap and finishing at the pavilion. Free parking is available; VIP parking near the start line is offered for $20 per vehicle. The event will use professional timing.
