## Description

Grab your Santa hat and hit the beach for the Carteret Partnership for Children’s  Third Annual Santa Beach Walk/Run 5k!  The Santa Beach Run is a great way to celebrate the holiday season and support one of Carteret County’s favorite charities.

*** New location: Ft. Macon Park! The starting line will begin at the Ft. Macon Park-1st Entrance. You will dash on the iconic scenic beach while raising money to help children in our local community.

Bring your friendly furry friends!
