The St. Joe Company’s WaterSound community will host the second annual “Move Your Feet to the Beat,” a 5K run to benefit the Sacred Heart Foundation, on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26. Nearly 250 people participated in the inaugural run last year. This year’s run will begin at 8:00 a.m. sharp at WaterSound’s Village Commons, located off of Highway 98 in WaterSound, FL.
Proceeds from the event will benefit Sacred Heart Hospital on the Emerald Coast, which was recently recognized by Thomson Reuters as one of the nation’s 100 Top Hospitals®. Serving Emerald Coast residents and visitors since 2003, the not-for-profit hospital continues to fulfill its mission to improve the health of the community at large, with special attention to service of the poor.
Prizes for male and female runners and the top in the children's category will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers. A special award will be given for the best "Athlete's Costume". Post-race refreshments will be served at WaterSound's Village Commons, courtesy of St. Joe Community Sales.
“We’re proud to again be a committed supporter of the Sacred Heart Health System,” said Mary Rosenheim, Senior Vice President and General Manager of JOE’s West Florida Region. “We have a long history of working with the organization, most recently in donating land for the new Sacred Heart Hospital in Port St. Joe.”
