Step up and join us as we celebrate the 6th Annual Sowebo Landmark 5k on Sunday, October 1, 2017. Sowebo Landmark 5K aims to unite neighbors, families, schools, and local resources to empower our youth to be active, eat well, and lead healthy lives.
At the intersection of healthy living and diverse community engagement, this 6th Annual 5K run/walk highlights the best of Southwest Baltimore’s communities, parks, people, and landmarks. The family friendly 5k run/walk, begins in Union Square Park and runs past Hollins Market, through the B&O Railroad Museum and down into Carroll Park and culminates back in Union Square.
Sowebo community residents have teamed up with the Chesapeake Center for Youth Development (CCYD) and the Southwest Baltimore Charter School (SBCS) to stand up and get moving. Are you ready to step up?
