50th Anniversary Sickle Cell 5k Race/Walk
Register online by Thursday, September 9th at www.sicklecellrace.com
The 50th Anniversary Sickle Cell Race/Walk is a major attraction for runners! The race is foremost a charitable event, with proceeds supporting our nonprofit mission and programs of the Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia, Inc. (SCFG).
SCFG serves people affected by sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait -- both are genetic blood disorders.
Participants will run the comfortable 5k (3.1 miles) course through beautiful and historic downtown East Point and the city’s diverse communities. While in town, everyone will get a glimpse of the New City Hall and downtown growth, convenient transit, neighborhood charm, hospitality, and robust businesses, which the City of East Point offers. The 5k run is chip timed, the course is certified, and it's a Peachtree Road Race qualifier. Rain or shine our event will go on!
Everyone wins at the Sickle Cell Road Race/Walk as part of the 2021 Winners Circle! Race and walk winners are presented with customized category awards, and all participants earn a coveted race T-Shirt. Sponsors receive an opportunity to showcase their products and services at one of the oldest and most family-friendly “cause” events in East Point, South Fulton, and Metro Atlanta areas.
All race proceeds support the mission of the Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia, Inc. and its programs to serve our patients afflicted with sickle cell disease including Camp New Hope, Georgia’s first and most popular medically supervised summer camp.
T-shirts are not guaranteed for persons who register on Race Day.
