The Fairhope Elementary Schools Pirate Dash 5k & 1-Mile Fun Run is set for February 28, 2026.

In it's 11th year, the 5k route takes participants through the Fruit & Nut District of downtown Fairhope and finishes along beautiful Mobile Bay at Knoll Park. The 1-Mile Fun Run is an out and back route along Bayview Ave. We hope you will join us for this year's 11th Annual Pirate Dash and help make a substantial impact on early education in Fairhope.
