Charlie Stavros Memorial Beach Run
This is a free, end of summer beach run held at Westerly Town Beach in Westerly, Rhode Island. The course is an out-and-back on the sand at low tide, with a turn point about 1.5 miles from the start for a total distance of 3 miles. The event is organized by the Westerly Track Club together with the Stavros family.
The run is presented as a memorial to Charlie Stavros. It is described as an open community event with a simple out-and-back format along the shoreline. The setting and timing at low tide shape the route and footing, and the turnaround point is approximately halfway along the course.
Practical details noted by the organizer include free entry and open participation by all ages. The event takes place on a single day in mid September at Westerly Town Beach and serves as a community gathering near the end of the summer season.
