Ōrewa Beach Fun Run
The event offers two beach courses set entirely on sand at low tide:
- 2.5 km
- 5 km
The course follows Ōrewa Beach with no roads or traffic involved. The event supports Ōrewa College: 100% of the event’s profits go directly to the school to fund a new Fitness Centre. Entries open 5 October, and a group discount of $10 per person applies for entries of three people or more made in a single transaction.
Every participant receives a finisher’s medal and a recorded time. The course is described as safe and well marked. The event is presented as suitable for walkers, joggers, runners, families, kids, teams, and first-time participants. The setting includes beachside amenities such as local cafes, a playground, and areas for volleyball and basketball, which can be part of the morning on the coast.
The description notes limited spots are available and encourages community participation while keeping the focus on a beach-based run and fundraising for the college. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
