Sponsored by Palmetto Goodwill and Trident Area Agency on Aging
Saturday, March 9, 2019 | James Island County Park
The Hippie Dash is a 5K fun run/walk that raises awareness and funding for people with disabilities. Far out dudes, hip chicks, flower children and funky fidos are invited to don their best 70s attire as they move and groove their way through a psychedelic 3.1 mile course around James Island County Park. Runners, walkers, children and pups of all ages are encouraged to participate. The Hippie Dash is all about fun, friendship and supporting a good cause.
Proceeds from the 2019 event help Palmetto Goodwill increase advocacy efforts to evoke change by spreading awareness regarding issues that people with disabilities face on a daily basis – including transportation, housing and employment – and help Trident Area Agency on Aging to serve the needs of adults with disabilities in the Tri-County area.
The Hippie Dash should be fun but there’s nothing wrong with a little bit of competition. We will again be officially timing the race. Top male, female and child finisher will receive a special prize.
Pull our your best 70s-inspired outfit. Prizes will be awarded to the best dressed Dude, Dudette, Flower Child and Pooch. Visit your local Goodwill store to score some groovy vintage duds without spending too much bread!
Runners, walkers, children and pups of all ages (and speeds) are encouraged to participate. The Hippie Dash is all about fun, friendship and supporting a good cause. Just go with the flow!
What’s a race without a little celebration of your efforts. Plan on sticking around and get your groove on with great music, food trucks, giveaways and loads of family fun. This party will be the bee’s knees!
