The Paws of War 5K Family Run/Walk is held at Heckscher State Park in East Islip, New York. This USATF-certified flat 3.1-mile course winds through the scenic park grounds, offering a family-friendly atmosphere. The event supports veterans and active military personnel by raising funds for Paws of War, a nonprofit that provides service dogs and rescue missions for military members and first responders.

Free parking is available, and virtual participation options are offered for those unable to attend in person. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
