Run or Walk for Water Saturday

It's the 8K Run & 5K Family Fun Walk to Preserve and Improve Water Quality in the Charleston Area! Runners and walkers will head out from Folly Beach, SC, on Saturday, February 21st at 9 a.m.

The event is hosted annually by the Masters of Environmental Studies Student Association (MESSA) of the College of Charleston. All proceeds are donated to a local non-profit group working to improve water quality. Last year over 250 runners participated, raising $4,000 for the Friends of the Edisto (FRED).

This year's race will benefit LowCountry Earth Force. Fees are $25 for the Run and $20 for the Walk. Get more information and register at MESSA. More sponsors needed! To volunteer or to be a sponsor at this year's race, please contact the race director, Sarah Mooney.
