Event Description

We are starting a new 5K Run/Walk in Statham. The first running of The Boo! On Broad will be Saturday, October 29.  We hope that this will turn into an annual event and it will start building excitement leading into the mayhem that happens on Broad St every Halloween. We will be giving prizes for best costumes, all participants are encouraged to dress up.

We will have a 1K Fun Run that starts at 7:30am. The 5K begins at 8:00am. Both races start on Broad St and finish in front of the Statham Elementary School Gym. Proceeds from both runs will benefit the SES and Bear Creek Middle School Running Clubs. The running club at SES is for 4th and 5th graders and the earnings will go to much needed running clothes and apparel for the students. The running club at BCMS includes 6th, 7th and 8th graders. They are also in need of clothes and apparel as well as track and field equipment. Both clubs promote a healthy lifestyle and a source of self-confidence and accomplishment for the students.
