DESTIN — The Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge's inaugural Zoolectric 5k is scheduled for 7 p.m. March 7 at Nightown.
Participants can sprint or stroll their way through a course featuring entertainment, glow-zones, and disc jockeys. Runners may wear bright, neon colors, reflective gear and glow attire. A glow accessory will be provided to each registered runner at packet pickup, and event shirts will be given to the first 250 registrants.
Early registration through Feb. 28 costs $20; late registration— March 1-6 — costs $25.
Register here, or pick up registration forms at the Refuge on Okaloosa Island, or at Run With It in downtown Fort Walton Beach.
All proceeds will benefit the Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge and will be used toward medical care, environmental education, and conservation efforts for native wildlife.
