The Dustin Deckard Memorial 5k Run and 1 Mile Walk
The Dustin Deckard Memorial 5k Run and 1 Mile Walk takes place at Riverview Beach Park in Pennsville, New Jersey. This athletic event honors the legacy of a local student athlete and wrestler who went on to compete in triathlons and half-iron man competitions.
Participants can choose between two primary distances:
- 5k
- 1 Mile
The event serves as a fundraiser for the Dustin Deckard Scholarship, a tax-exempt organization that has awarded more than 30 scholarships to date. The proceeds support educational opportunities in memory of an individual known for his academic achievements and athletic involvement.
All participants who register before the pre-registration deadline are guaranteed an event T-shirt. For those registering on the day of the event, T-shirts are distributed based on remaining availability. Shirt sizes ranging from Small to Extra Large are provided. Registration services open on-site on the morning of the event for those who did not sign up during the pre-registration period. The venue is located at 49 Lakeview Avenue, offering a park setting for both the running race and the walking community. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
