Slidell Food & Fun Fest

The Slidell Food & Fun Fest, held annually at St. Margaret Mary Church in Slidell, Louisiana, features a 5K run and a 1-mile run/walk, including a separate 1-mile event for children 13 and under. This event, known as Slidell's oldest 5K and 1-mile races, welcomes participants of all ages and offers chip timing for all registered runners.

The 5K is recommended for those who can finish within 50 minutes to minimize road closures. The races are run consecutively, and participants may only register for one event. The festival atmosphere combines fitness with community fun, making it a family-friendly occasion. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
