About the Okatie - Fly By 5K
The course starts and finishes at an elementary school on Cherry Point Road, so the crowd is heavy with kids and parents. The route is a neighborhood-style 5K with a short fun run option for the youngest participants. Age group awards go deep, and there is a stroller division, so the field tends to be multigenerational.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon before the race at the school, with race-morning pickup available as well. Parking is in the school lot, and the pickup table is just across the front crosswalk. There is no race-day registration, so sorting out your bib ahead of time is worth the trip.
