Help Us Celebrate South Carolina Aviation Week & Honor America’s Heroes! Take flight with us at Beaufort Executive Airport as we kick off South Carolina Aviation Week with the Flying Frog 5K/10K—a patriotic runway race supporting Operation Patriots FOB, an organization dedicated to veterans, active-duty service members, first responders, and their families.
Run, leap, and soar down a fast, flat runway course—and this year, the celebration continues long after you cross the finish line!
Proudly Supporting Operation Patriots FOB All proceeds from the race and FrogFest directly support Operation Patriots FOB, whose mission is to strengthen peer connection, provide outdoor and recreational experiences, and advocate for veterans in the fight against veteran suicide.
OPFOB MISSION IS DEDICATED TO... Creating and fostering positive experiences for veterans, active duty military, first responders, and their families by connecting through outdoor and recreational activities. We create an alliance through peer engagement in a comfortable and relaxed environment.
Operation Patriots FOB is proud to have earned the highest rating from Charity Navigator, 4-stars, and a Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid (formerly Guidestar)—the highest recognitions awarded by the nation’s most respected nonprofit evaluators.
These distinctions reflect commitment to financial integrity, measurable impact, and transparent operations. For current and future donors, this means you can give with confidence, knowing your support directly fuels free, life-changing programs for veterans, active-duty service members, first responders, and their families. We don’t just promise impact—we prove it.
