Go Gray in May - National Harbor, MD

Go Gray in May is an annual community event held at 137 National Plaza, National Harbor, MD 20745, focused on traumatic brain injury and brain tumor awareness. The main athletic offering is a 5K walk/run. The day also includes vendor and expo spaces, food truck participation, informational tables for community groups, and volunteer roles.

Organizers report more than 400 people have registered over the years and that about $20,000 has been raised and donated to the Maryland Brain injury institution. The event has a stated goal to grow participation to 500 walkers, runners, and riders.

Event planning calls for both short and long walk paths and on-course stations offering water and fruit. First aid kits and basic medical support are listed as part of the planned services. Fees for specific participation types are published by the organizer, including a registration fee for the 5K walk/run and separate fees for vendor and food truck spaces. Some informational tables are designated for noncommercial outreach only and require participants to supply their own table and chairs.

The program includes volunteer assignments such as setup, registration check-in, participant guidance, water distribution, and post-event breakdown. Arrival times and role details are provided to volunteers by the organizer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
