Surfin' Snowman 5k Run/Walk

Description

**UPDATE** The Town of Bethany is not issuing any Special Event permits at this time. We have been granted permission to move the race to the Delaware Seashore State Park, South Inlet. The race needed to be converted to a 5k Run/Walk rather than a 5 miler/2 mile walk in order to get the approval. We are now postponing the event until Feb. 13, 2021. The event will be a 5k and be held at the DSSP, South Inlet on February 13, 2021.

Join us for the 8th Annual Surfin' Snowman. Celebrate the holidays with friends and family as we raise money for the the Bethany Beach Vol. Fire Co., Justin's Beach House & Contractors for a Cause. Long sleeve tech shirts and glow wear guaranteed to those that pre-register.
