SEASIDE — The Seaside
Dash to Safety, a 5K run
and walk, will headline
activities designed to raise
awareness of emergency
preparedness Saturday,
May 6.
The race will begin 9
a.m. at the Seaside Cove,
with the Tsunami Warn-
ing System acting as the
official starter. Runners
will head along Ocean
Vista Drive and up the
Seaside Promenade to the
turnaround. They will then
move east along Broadway
Street until they reach
Wahanna Road. The final
stretch will take them
south along Wahanna to
Spruce Drive, and then to
the finish line at Sea-
side Heights Elementary
School.
The Seaside Family
Safety Fair, all-ages event
running 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
will be waiting for them
at the school. It will have
free hot dogs (served by
Seaside Fire and Rescue),
a bike rodeo for kids, and
prizes — including a draw-
ing for two youth bikes.
Information vendors
promoting safety will be
on hand, and fire trucks, an
armored car and the War-
renton-based Life Flight’s
helicopter will likely be
present.
Participants can register
through seasideor.com and
Sunset Empire Park and
Recreation District. Race
packets can be picked up at
Seaside Heights, beginning
at 8 a.m. Shuttle service
will be provided from the
school to the Cove starting
at 8:30 a.m.
The city of Seaside and
Sunset Empire partnered up
for the Dash to Safety.
“There’s a strong effort
to promote preparedness
in our community,” Rahl,
a city spokesman, said.
“Winter storms, flooding,
fires, tsunamis and earth-
quakes are just a few of the
things that could strike our
area at any time. The idea
behind this annual day is to
have some fun while also
learning what we can do to
better prepare ourselves for
an emergency situation.”
