Honoring the Life of Eagle Scout George McWilliams

When: Sunday, April 18, 2027 — 10:30 AM

Set within the beautiful wooded trails of Camp Manatoc, the race offers participants a fun and scenic 5K adventure through forests, hills, and camp trails.
George was known for his adventurous spirit, kindness, and love of the outdoors. This event honors his memory while supporting a cause close to his heart. All proceeds from the race will be donated in George’s memory to Camp Manatoc to help provide financial assistance for campers who may otherwise be unable to attend.
🎽 Registration Swag: All participants will receive a custom Slay The Dragon beanie-style hat, a tribute to George—who was rarely seen without his favorite beanie, even while running.
Whether you run, walk, or simply want to support a great cause, come help us celebrate George’s life and help more young people experience the adventure of camp.
If you are unable to attend, please consider making a donation in George’s memory.
Join us on the trails, celebrate George and help us Slay The Dragon! 🐉🏃♂️🏃♀️
