Pacific City Beach Challenge

The run is an out and back on the beach, starting due west of the Pelican and running south to the turnaround point. There are often obstacles left by the surf and water features to navigate. This is a challenging run since its all on the beach which is a mix of hard pack and soft sand.

All funds raised go to directly to support the Nestucca Valley Early Center in Hebo, Oregon. (formerly known as Cedar Creek Child Care Center). The event is completely put on by the volunteer Board of Directors and Center staff. Everything for the run is donated from shirts to prizes to beverages and snacks.

All participants receive a complementary Pelican beer or root beer after the race.
