Slay The Dragon 5K Trail Run

The Slay The Dragon 5K Trail Run is a memorial event held at Scouting America’s Camp Manatoc in Peninsula, Ohio. This race commemorates the life of Eagle Scout George McWilliams and reflects his interest in outdoor activities. The event is open to both runners and walkers of all ages.

The course consists of a 5K route through the wooded environment of the camp. Participants travel across a variety of terrains, including forests, hills, and established camp trails. The setting provides a scenic natural backdrop for the activity within the conserved lands of the scouting facility.

Proceeds from the registration fees are donated to Camp Manatoc in memory of George McWilliams. These funds are used to provide financial assistance for individuals who wish to attend the camp but may lack the necessary resources.

Participants receive a custom beanie-style hat as part of their registration. This specific item of apparel serves as a tribute to George McWilliams, who frequently wore beanies during his own runs. The event focuses on community support and the expansion of youth access to outdoor camp experiences. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
