2019 Race For The ARK

We cannot thank you, our faithful supporters, enough for making our 20th Annual Thrivent Financial Race For The ARK a record breaking year. For the first time ever, we were a sold out event with nearly 700 runners and walkers participating (including those who still wanted to registered without having a chipped bib). “It is amazing to see how supportive the Summerville, Charleston & running communities are. We cannot thank our sponsors, volunteers and runners enough for their continued support. This event gets better each year because of all of you”, said Megan Severn, Development Director of The ARK. This year, The ARK raised over $38,000 to benefit families living with Alzheimer’s or related dementia throughout the Lowcountry. With these funds we are able to continue providing respite care, support groups and education classes. We look forward to making next year’s 21st Annual Race For The ARK even better! “Race for The ARK broke all records from past years for its 20th Anniversary.  Watching almost 700 runners and walkers crossing the start line was incredible. We appreciate all of them plus all our sponsors, donors, and especially all our volunteers who make the event wonderfully fun and successful”, Peg Lahmeyer, Executive Director A special thank you to Tiffany Hicks Photography for being our race photographer, stay tuned for our pictures! 2019 Race For The ARK Results
