Join us for the inaugural Orewa Beach Fun Run, a community event supporting the development of Orewa College’s brand-new Fitness Centre. Every dollar raised goes directly to the college to help bring this exciting project to life — and to build a lasting annual event for our wider community.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just out for a beach stroll, everyone’s welcome! Choose between a 2.5 km or 5 km course along the stunning Orewa Beach, set entirely on the sand at low tide — no roads, no footpaths, just fresh sea air and beautiful views.
Bring your friends, family, and energy for a morning of fitness, fun, and community spirit!
Purpose: 100% of proceeds go to Orewa College’s new Fitness Centre
Let’s make waves for a great cause — see you on the beach!
Thanks to our amazing sponsors Cranefield Automotive & Sunflour Orewa
