Carolina Strawberry Festival 5K

The Carolina Strawberry Festival 5K, held in Wallace, North Carolina, is a community-focused running event that kicks off the Strawberry Festival weekend. Participants can choose between a 5K walk or run, suitable for all skill levels, starting and finishing at the Campbell Center in Clement Park. Additionally, there is a non-timed 1 Mile fun run called the Strawberry Jam, which involves four laps around the Clement Park track and welcomes all ages.

Registration includes a shirt, a finisher medal for the 5K, special treats for 1 Mile finishers, and age group awards. Proceeds support the development of an inclusive playground for children with disabilities at Clement Park, promoting accessibility and community involvement.
