Join us for the SIDS Awareness 5k Run/Walk on Saturday, October 17, 2026, in the picturesque St. Marys, Auglaize! Organized by the JTD Hospital Foundation, part of the Grand Lake Health System-Joint Township District Memorial Hospital, this uplifting event is designed for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. Experience the stunning fall scenery along the St. Marys River, Memorial Park, and KC Geiger as you participate in this meaningful 5K journey.

This event not only promotes health and fitness but also raises vital awareness about Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and its prevention. In honor of Landen Philpot, who tragically passed away from SIDS at just three months old, all profits from the race will support the Landen Philpot Nursing Scholarship. This scholarship awards two $1,000 grants to local students pursuing nursing degrees with a focus on obstetrics or pediatrics. Come out to make a difference while enjoying a beautiful day in the community!
