Dellinger Dash 3K and "Lake Lap" for Kids
Join us for the 7th Annual Dellinger Dash 3K and the "Lake Lap" for Kids on Thursday evening, August 6, 2026, starting at 7:00 PM. This event is held at the beautiful Dellinger Park in Cartersville, GA.
The Dellinger Dash 3K is one complete loop around the park, including a small hill, totaling 3K (just shy of 2 miles). For younger participants (8 & Under), the "Lake Lap" is a fun 450-meter race (a little over a quarter-mile) around Dellinger Park's duck pond.
Both races start and finish adjacent to the duck pond. All registered participants will receive a commemorative T-shirt.
