Saturday morning!

Join us for the 40th Annual Nags Head Woods 5K & 1-Mile Walk. There's still time to sign up! The weather looks cool and perfect for a run/walk in the woods.

We'll have breakfast for all, flowers 🌹 for Mom, and of course a cold refreshing beer 🍺 to celebrate this fun event. New this year, we will also have bubbles πŸ₯‚ as well!

There's no better way to kick off Mother's Day Weekend than by reconnecting with Nature and sweating a little. It's a busy weekend on the Outer Banks, but the Nags Head Woods 5K is early on Saturday. We are all wrapped up by 930am, and if you need to jet as soon as you're done our shuttles will be running continuously from 630am until 10:00am. Grab your breakfast to go and get after your busy weekend!
