Save the Manatee

The Save the Manatee event is a virtual 5K run that encourages participants to support manatee conservation. Scheduled for December 31, 2024, this event allows individuals to join from anywhere in the world, choosing their own activity and distance—be it running, walking, biking, or swimming. Registration includes a T-shirt, finisher medal, and race bib, with all proceeds benefiting the Save the Manatee Club.

This marks the 21st year of the event, which has raised over $409,000 for manatee protection. Participants are encouraged to share their experiences on social media using the hashtag #run4manatees. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
