Our third annual TUWT X HOMEWARD BOUND 5K!

Location: Cooper River at the track!

Check in begins at 9:30AM.

We will begin the event at 10AM beginning with introducing the 10+ adoptable dogs on site. You will hear their story and hopefully fall in love and adopt or foster!

After the dog introductions, we will take a group photo which I forget every year so someone please remind me. Then comes the fitness portion of our event!

You will have three options:

Option 1: Run or walk the 5k perimeter around Cooper River Park. The top 3 females and top 3 males will win a TUWT gift card!

Option 2: Walk or run around the track!

Option 3: Pet and play with the adoptable dogs on site.

ANY PERSON THAT ADOPTS A DOG AT THE EVENT RECEIVES A FREE TUWT MONTH!

There will also be food, drinks, and local vendors and tables that are all dog and pet friendly!

We hope to see you there!

All proceeds will be donated to Homeward Bound, a local animal shelter that is constantly overwhelmed with homeless dogs and cats. These workers and volunteers do everything and anything they can to help these animals find their forever homes. Our money goes towards keeping these animals fed, safe, comfortable and healthy while they wait. Many animals are so stressed and depressed in these crates and shelters. Please consider adopting or fostering!

#GetUpandGo

Peace for Pam is a 5K run/walk created in loving memory of my mom, Pam, who I lost to suicide on May 5th, 2024. This race honors her life, her strength, and the fight she put up every single day.

Growing up, my mom brought my little sister Sarah and I to Laurel Acres Park countless times. It was a place filled with laughter, family moments, and simple joys. Holding this race at Laurel Acres Park is a way to celebrate those memories and honor the place that meant so much to her and to us.

All proceeds will be donated to support suicide prevention efforts, education, and advocacy.

This race is held to:

• Remember the lives lost to suicide

• Acknowledge the millions who have experienced suicidal thoughts

• Support the individuals, families, and communities impacted by suicide

• Raise awareness and share messages of hope for those who are struggling

Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death worldwide, and it is something that needs to be talked about more openly and compassionately. Through Peace for Pam, we aim to break the silence, honor loved ones, and remind people that they are not alone.

Whether you choose to run, walk, or simply show up in support, your presence helps make a difference!

DONATIONS: All donations can be sent through the link below!
