Purpose and logistics
The race benefits South Mountain Baptist Camp. Proceeds go directly to the camp’s operating budget. The camp, founded in 1957 in the South Mountains of North Carolina, aims to provide a setting for spiritual growth through time in nature and related activities. Organizers state the camp offsets about $100 per camper; the estimated weekly cost to attend is $205 and the true cost is over $300 per week.
A course map is available via MapMyRun. Sponsors are listed for the event, and additional race information is provided by the camp’s fundraisers page. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
