Registration is open – sign up today and join us for our annual Lederhosen Leap 10K or the Dirndl Dash 5K!  Not a runner but enjoy a nice walk thru scenic Uchee Creek? The annual Volksmarch is free to attend and registration is not required, just mark your calendar!
Lederhosen Leap 10K: October 17 at 9 a.m. EDT:  Lederhosen Leap 10K is a competitive 10K cross country run; the 10K route will take you through the wooded hills around and through Uchee Creek; the top three runners for each age group will receive awards; this run is not stroller friendly and mostly off road.
Dirndl Dash 5K: October17 at 9:15 a.m. EDT:  Dirndl Dash 5K is one of MWR Sports Fun Runs; our Fun Runs are for the entire family, all ages, stroller, and pet friendly; the 5K route is a mix of road and dirt path and will take you throughout scenic Uchee Creek.
Volksmarch:  Join us for the Volksmarch on Saturday, October 17, starting at 9:30 a.m. EDT! The Volksmarch is a non-competitive 3.1 mile (5 km) walk that is not a pledge walk, run, or race. It's a fantastic activity that you can enjoy with your club, family, pet, or even by yourself, and it’s free to attend. The name Volksmarch originates from Europe, and we are bringing a taste of Germany to you for 3 days straight!
Our annual Volksmarch kicks off around 9:30 a.m. EDT – but there's no need to rush – you can march all day long, whenever you wish!
Stop by the Information tent on Saturday, October 17  starting at 9:30 a.m. EDT and pick up this year’s Volksmarch map – starting point is right there next to the tent and march, and once you've finished your march, come back to the information tent and pick up this year’s Oktoberfest pin!
If you've marched every year, you should have quite the collection by now! If this is your first march – start collecting now! No registration required!
And check out last year’s pictures!
