Pirate Treasure Trot 5k

Early Packet Pickup is Thursday August 15th from 6:00pm-7:30pm at the Murdock Carrousel Subway (1900 Tamiami Tr. Suite 105).  RaceDay Packet Pickup will begin at 6:00am on the morning of the race at the Port Charlotte High School track.

This 5K race is held as a fundraiser to benefit the Boys and Girls Cross Country teams at Port Charlotte High School.  

The 5k course is flat and winding, multi-surface, with the start and finish on the paved track.  The course includes some grass fields, paved sidewalks, parking, and driveways on and surrounding the Port Charlotte High School campus and the Charlotte County Technical Center. 

The 1-mile fun run is intended for kids, but anyone that signs up for the 5K is welcome to run it too (parents are also welcome to run along-side their children).  The 1-mile course will follow the final mile of the 5k course around the Port Charlotte High School campus.

Trophies are awarded to the Male and Female Overall, Masters (40+), Grandmaster (50+), Senior Grandmaster (60+), and Veterans (70+).
