A fun-filled morning for veterans, rivers and community
The Patriot Run brings neighbors together to recognize those who have served our country and enjoy the natural places we share.
Located along the Black River, Rocky Point Community Forest connects people with local forests and waterways. For Winyah Rivers Alliance, that connection matters: protecting clean water also means caring for the surrounding lands and the communities that depend on them.
Whether you’re aiming for a new personal best, or enjoying a walk with friends, we hope you’ll join us.
