2nd Community Matters Foundation 5K
In Memory of David Ashby
August 10, 2024 – Saturday
Dewey Beach, DE
A Ten Sisters of Dewey Beach Road Race Series Event
Dave was a proud Dewey Beach homeowner who passed away suddenly of an undiagnosed cardiac arrhythmia just before his 29th birthday. His compassion for others and his desire to live life to the fullest made a lasting impression on everyone he met. His family and friends would like to create a means to spread awareness about the risks of irregular heartbeat, support the DE beach community by donating defibrillator machines and associated training, and hands only CPR education to community organizations and small businesses.
Last year’s race enabled us to donate 9 AED machines to local businesses and police. Since the Starboard restaurant installed an AED last year, 3 lives were saved.
