Event summary

Join us for the lively Gold Ribbon Run 5K on Saturday, October 12, 2024, in beautiful Travelers Rest, Greenville! This exciting event kicks off at Trailblazer Park, welcoming participants of all ages to run or walk in support of Friends of Santa Claus, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing vital financial and emotional support to children battling cancer and their families in Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina.

Not only will you take part in a fantastic 5K race, but there’s also a Kids Fun Run immediately following the main event, featuring a short route of approximately 100 yards, complete with a t-shirt and goody bag for every young participant! After the race, don’t miss the chance to join us for the Kegs and Eggs fundraiser at Chicora Alley, where you can enjoy a delicious breakfast plate and three beers (for those 21 and older). Whether you're running, walking, or simply there to support a great cause, this event promises a day of fun and community spirit. Mark your calendars and be part of something special!
