Join Us for the Annual Knights of Columbus K-9 Race honoring K-9 Roki this June!

Register your K-9 to also get a bandanna for your K-9

1 mile youth race for ages up to 13 years of age.

We are raising money to support the K-9 Unit of the Saint Marys Police Department. They now have four working K-9’s . They have to raise 100% of all their money for the support and operation of the K-9’s. With your support of donations and sponsorships we can make this event very successful.

The 38th Annual Crawfish Festival is a family oriented event and offers something for all ages from children's amusements to arts & crafts, to cloggers, square dancers and live bands. The Doreen Myers 5k Run/Walk kicks off the events on Saturday morning with a beautiful run through Woodbine, the boardwalk, and finishing at the Satilla Waterfront Park by the banks of the Satilla River. Proceeds from the Doreen Meyers 5k benefits Safe Harbor Children’s Advocacy Centers in Camden, Glynn, and Wayne counties.

Join us for the 2nd Annual Cinco de Mayo 5K in beautiful downtown St. Marys beginning right in front of The Firefly Taco Cantina.

Last year we welcomed 200 runners, and we’re ready to make this year even bigger and better! Run, walk, or stroll through downtown.

This event supports Camden Gymnastics, with 100% of proceeds helping young athletes cover state and national competition fees. Your participation directly helps local gymnasts chase their dreams — every step counts!
