US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

The Foundation is managed by a 12-member board of trustees who meets monthly. Since 2006, the Bulloch County Foundation for Public Education has funded more than 320 innovative classroom teacher grants totaling more than $406,087 to provide learning experiences for Bulloch County children. The Foundation gives individuals, businesses, industries and civic organizations a way to invest in local education programs that benefit public, charter, private and home-schooled students. The Foundation’s two major fundraising campaigns are the Statesboro 5K Turkey Trot, donations, and Bulloch County Schools’ Payroll deduction option for employees. The Foundation funds Bulloch County School’s annual participation in the REACH Georgia Scholarship Program with a $5,000 annual seed capital contribution for five new scholars each year. As a result, when scholars graduate, they receive a $10,000 scholarship to attend a Georgia college or technical college of their choice. The scholarship is in addition to any HOPE scholarship or other private scholarships they may earn. To date, the Foundation has helped 67 scholars, many of whom are first generation college students. The Foundation is the local underwriting sponsor for the Professional Association of Georgia Educators' STAR Student/Teacher program. The Foundation’s financial support makes this program possible locally for Bulloch County’s public, private and charter schools. The Foundation is also one of the main corporate sponsors for Bulloch County Schools’ Teacher of the Year program. The Foundation annually provides a $4,500 in stipend awards to the district's 15 school-level teachers of the year. The Foundation also provides administrative services to hold the endowments of several other local college scholarships created by local citizens.
