关于赛事

Join us "for the love of the animals" on Saturday, Sept. 21st, 2024 for the Furry 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run at Generations Park!  This race will benefit FOTAS. 

The Friends of the Animal Shelter – Aiken County (FOTAS) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3), volunteer organization created in 2009 to supplement the resources of the Aiken County Animal Shelter in the care of approximately 4800 homeless and abandoned animals consigned to its care each year. FOTAS is wholly funded by private donations.  The mission of FOTAS is to support the Aiken County Animal Shelter by promoting animal welfare, responsible pet ownership, and the elimination of euthanasia of all adoptable animals.  Before FOTAS was established, the County’s live release rate was only 9% but we are happy to say last year, 2018 year end status, it was 90% as a result of the efforts of FOTAS and its volunteers (total animals saved divided by total animals received). Despite this improvement, 90% is still unacceptably low. FOTAS will continue its efforts to improve that number and fulfill its mission to never have to euthanize another adoptable animal.  

THERE WILL BE DOGS ON SITE FOR ADOPTION :-)!!! We will be taking food donations - dry and wet food for dogs and cats and toys!!  If you bring your own furry friend to run with you, we will have dog treats for them as well.  We encourage you to dress up your dog for the dog costume competition!! The winner will receive a gift card.
